For all you smartarses () I'm 100% certain it was water, they were there for 2 hours at least, never acted drunk, they were clearly just having a good time to the music. This was in Nava, Asturias, which is actually home to a very interesting Cider (Sidra) museum. They make a type of Cider there which is flat and you pour it from a height to make it fizzy. Again, you don't see people getting wasted on the stuff, just relaxing and enjoying it.

Meh, the drinking culture is caused by social dysfunction in my opinion. Prices don't really affect consumption, look at Spain, you can get a nice bottle of Wine for less than 1 euro! Canada's approach is just to have liquor stores which keeps alcohol segregated, but I think UK/Canada/US culture really needs to adopt the Mediterranean approach, bringing up children in an environment where alcohol is a social drink that isn't anything special, just part of life.
