"drinking a can of <5% ABV beer ... per inning" is binge drinking:

From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binge_drinking#Definitions

> the term has been described in academic research to mean consuming five or more standard drinks (male), or four or more drinks (female),[12] over a two-hour period.

> Drinking too much alcohol one time does not a problem make

When I was in college, a lot of people would define alcoholism in their heads so that they didn't call themselves alcoholics, when in fact they were exhibiting textbook alcoholism. (Not that I have a perfect past myself.)

Needless to say, "a beer an inning" isn't the kind of behavior that I will publicly glorify; nor will I try to handwave it away as "not a problem."
