Question: What drink would the people of Nannus use to celebrate what Dionysus did for them?

The United American Indians of New England (UAINE) is a Native American activist organization founded by Frank James.  Also known as Wamsutta, Frank James was the leader of the Wampanoag people.  He founded the United American Indians of New England after being “uninvited” to make a speech at a celebration hosted by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.  The Commonwealth wanted to celebrate the friendly relations of their forefathers and the Wampanoag people; however, when the speech that James was going to give was reviewed, it was deemed inappropriate for the celebration because it focused on the negative ways the Wampanoag people had been treated by the Pilgrims at Plymouth and did not celebrate the brotherhood the planners wanted to show.  When he was given a revised speech that was written by a person in public relations, James decided that he would not attend the celebration.  Instead, he chose to protest the silencing of the Native Americans by gathering supporters, going to Cole's Hill overlooking Plymouth Harbor, and giving his speech there. <SEP>  Wine played an important role in Greek culture, and the cult of Dionysus was the main religious focus for its unrestrained consumption.  His worship became firmly established in the seventh century BC.  He may have been worshipped as early as c. 1500–1100 BC by Mycenean Greeks; traces of Dionysian-type cult have also been found in ancient Minoan Crete. Dionysus ( ; Greek: Διόνυσος "Dionysos") is the god of the grape harvest, winemaking and wine, of ritual madness, fertility, theatre and religious ecstasy in ancient Greek religion and myth.  His origins are uncertain, and his cults took many forms; some are described by ancient sources as Thracian, others as Greek.  In some cults, he arrives from the east, as an Asiatic foreigner; in others, from Ethiopia in the South.  He is a god of epiphany, "the god that comes", and his "foreignness" as an arriving outsider-god may be inherent and essential to his cults.  He is a major, popular figure of Greek mythology and religion, becoming increasingly important over time, and included in some lists of the twelve Olympians, as the last of their number, and the only god born from a mortal mother.  His festivals were the driving force behind the development of Greek theatre. <SEP>  Like the Hundred-Handed Ones he had many arms, and his head was covered with vipers, like Medusa.  Alpos, who does not appear elsewhere in Greek mythology, and received no cult, may be considered an invention of the fertile imagination of Nonnus. In Nonnus' "Dionysiaca" (late fourth or early fifth century CE), Alpos is a Sicilian giant who terrorized Punta del Faro and he was killed by Dionysus with his thyrsus. <SEP> The legal drinking age varies from country to country.  In the United States, the legal drinking age is currently 21, but some people, such as sociology Professor David Hanson, suggest lowering it.  Underage drinking is already common, but NHTSA spokeswoman Evelyn Avant says lowering the drinking age would lead to even more alcohol use among young people.  Other countries have raised the prices of alcohol and encouraged the general public to drink less.  Having a legal drinking age of 21 allows for the hope that drinking would become less reckless and the people drinking would be more mature to make reasonable decisions when it comes to alcohol consumption.  A survey of Australian college students demonstrated that they and other students witnessed blackouts during parties with alcohol consumption and around 75% of students stated they left these students to sleep off the effects.  Australian programs responded to this by training students in how to avoid dangerous encounters when in situations of alcohol consumption.
