Allergic reaction to alcohol

Am I the only one who gets an allergic reaction to certain types of alcohol? I don't drink alcopops really, but it's the really sugary stuff I have a reaction to I think. Face and neck goes bright red and burns, fast heat beat, puffy cheeks and chest tightens. I'm ok about an hour or so after, am I the only one that has this happen to them? tbh, I guess it's not a bad thing, drink ain't the best stuff for you!

remember one of my mates always got caught off his parents when drinking under age because his face would go bright red
I can drink alcohol in any other form!
my chest goes bright red and rashy, only lasts for about an hour or so. peach schnaps is really bad for me but it happens a bit whenever i drink alcohol
Have you thought it might be because they stuff those things with fake colours and sugers?
just drink straight vodka instead pal
Large numbers of people from the Far East dont have the enzyme needed to break down alcohol, this is because unlike us low beer swilling Europeans they drank tea to sterilise water.
