Has anyone noticed that if they drink what their ancestors drunk, they don't get a hangover?

I have Irish parents on both sides and when I drink whiskey or scotch of any kind I never get a hangover or headache, yet I am incredibly sensitive to all other kinds of alcohol.

No because most alcohols are mass produced in giant factory distilleries 'brewing' trillions of gallons of suds for the general retarded population to drown their sorrows in.

Half german, half chinese-french (don't know exactly, my Mom was from Madagascar).

Apparently brown eyes can't hold their liquor well, but I can hold down pretty much everything but tequila pretty well. --Maybe not though, because I've had long nights of drinking any hard alcohol kick my ass before, so I mainly stick to beer now.

OP, I believe you

Its a well known fact in the medical community that innuit people - the locals up in Greenland and such - their livers cannot into booze.

While we can digest a beer's worth of alcohol in an hour, it'll take maybe a week for them to process the same amount of booze - because their livers didn't have several thousands of years to adapt to working alcohol out of their systems. In the rest of the world alcohol has been a common stable in the human diet for thousands of years, on account of alcohol being a fairly good preservative for liquids so stores of beer gave early agricultural communities something to drink during winter.

And no I don't have any medical texts to prove this - but my grandfather had a story on the subject:
My grandfather was a north sea fisherman back in the 60s. He was but one of many in the crew, which was largely made up of danish officers and greenland natives as crew (they were cheaper...)

Now, they knew well of the innuit alcohol issue - so booze was not allowed on ship. Didn't stop the crew smuggling bottles aboard, and my grandfather once experience a situation where the eskimo idiots got completely drunk off their asses and started rioting... because drunk.

Now, factor in that it would take these people up to maybe two weeks to process all the booze in their systems(drunk for two weeks straight!) - and it was cheap shit vodka and whatnot - so they were also facing weeks shit tier hangovers.

It got so bad that my grandfather and the officers simply locked and barricaded themselves in the bridge - they emerged a few days later to find most of the eskimo crew having killed each other, bled to death or otherwise offed themselvse. Because several weeks of nasty hangovers were apparently a really scary prospect, and they had been really drunk.

I'm 1/4 Icelandic, and every time I've been there (even though I've traveled to a bunch of countries) I'm simply baffled at the amount of liquor they can handle.

Me, I throw up real easy with liquor. I can handle over 9000 beers just fine though. I'm secretly Irish/German/Japanese? LOL

That doesn't mean if OP drinks 80 proof whisky that he'll have no hangover opposed to drinking 80 proof vodka. It's purely psychological.

Well, this is mildly true. People with European heritage can process alcohol because brewing/distilling was how people in that area made clean water back in the day. Asians have low tolerance because their ancestors made tea. For real, asians can't drink for shit.

But it isn't as specific as you think.
