Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community

1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.

2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.

3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.

4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.

5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.

6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.

I'm skeptical that most of SE Asia drinks "spirits". How are they defining spirits, wine, and beer? I would have thought of spirits as being things that were distilled after fermentation, and I don't think that most of common alcoholic beverages in SE Asia are distilled.

You'd be wrong then

Whiskey is an incredibly popular drink in India. It's often mixed down into something lower ABV (mostly water) and it ends up closer to a typical wine's ABV as the consumed product, but it still spirits that arr being bought/sold.

There are several whiskey distillers in my part of California and 3 of them were started by Indian men that like to talk shop.
