Mangley:
The problem I have with this study, and other studies like it is that it's presuming intelligence has anything to do with thinking time. It has nothing to do with thinking time. Suppose a very intelligent person with a large vocabulary may take longer and forumulate their answer to a question more carefully.
Alcohol is a depressant and can make you calm and assists your brain in being able to block stimuli, essentially reducing your situational awareness, which would otherwise distract your brain from focusing on a specific task.

Red wine pwns beer as far as health goes, Jägermeister is a popular digestif as well, but is often associated with greasy frat boys.

I don't know if it makes me smarter... but helps my golf game, dancing, and more nicer... I'll take every excuse to drink I can get.
