Twenty-eight percent of 24-31-year-olds would rather drink at home than go out. Mintel research found that, even in their peak bar-hopping years, many Millennials are staying in. (A trend Ypulse covered back in 2016.) Why? Seventy-four percent said they want to be somewhere more relaxing than a public venue, 69% want to save money, and 38% believe they’ll drink more moderately at home. However, many are still being social at home (by, for instance, hosting board game nights) and when they do choose to go out, they’re opting for pricier craft cocktails. (Refinery29)
