The ahndbook gives guidance on this but, as someone pointed out, the temple recommend question is only whether you keep the WoW. Self-governance, with prayerful consideration and taking into account the words of prophets, seems to the the idea here.

I don't draw a distinction between beer, wine and hard liquors. Generally, you need to drink two glasses of wine or beer to make you feel the same as one glass of whisky will make you feel. Drunk is drunk. The most unhealthy drinks are those with mixers and juices because of the sugar and caloric content. I avoid beer because it seems heavier and more bloating.
