Sounds like an allergic reaction

Sounds like an allergy,
My mum used to work in a golf club and sometimes she'd clear away beer glasses, if she picked them up and any lager touched her hands / fingers it would blister!
The Ales were ok
Strange but true..
you may well be allergic, ask the GP for a test to confirm?

My sister can't drink any alcohol without her arms throbbing with a dull ache. She only has a small drink on special occasions, and then has to put up with the pain. I don't know why because i don't have this problem, I just get a hangover, like the one I've got now.

my father-in-law can't drink beer (he's allergic to it) but he can drink ale. so...there must be something different about its contents and production, but i have no idea what.
