Rules from an ex-alcoholic:

1) Never start with mixed drinks, especially sugary ones. You will drink more than you intended.
2) You're clear with beer. In my experience, it is nearly impossible to get "sick drunk" off of Pabst Blue Ribbon.
3) Alternate with water. Alcohol suppresses the action of anti-diuretic hormone, making you piss away H2O and dehydrating you. Drinking water is the best "hangover preventer."
4) Limit yourself. My happy place is 3-6 drinks. Find yours and go slow at first, it's easy to overshoot and wind up vomiting in a trash can.
