Do Unitarians have monestaries? Probably not in Texas, at least.

Try the Buddhists.

"Alcohol has a small hut enduring place in Buddhist practice, Zen masters have exhibited a fondness for sake, and liquor is used ceremonially in tantric feasts, while chang, a potent Tibetan barley-beer is consumed by monks and lay practitioners in tantric ceremonies (as well as for fun) throughout the Himalayas."

And then there's always the green tea...
