Summary In an experiment conducted as part of Alcohol Alert Week, 30 employees of the New Zealand Department of Health were asked to abstain from alcohol for 8 days. Twelve abstained completely and two drank an only one occasion. Both abstainers and non‐abstainers learned something about their own, and New Zealand, attitudes to alcohol during the course of the experiment.
