    I would say calling it booze is the problem, not calling it beer.

    “Booze,” at least to me, implies you’ll get drunk if you drink it. Plenty of people can have a beer and not even get tipsy.

    Just looking up the definition of the word, ‘intoxicating’ and ‘alcoholic’ is what dictionaries use to describe it.
