Yes, there is a drinking culture in this country and it's getting worse. We, and the Americans, differ from the continental europeans because their idea of socialising is usually based around food, eating out, not drinking. I say continental europeans, but of course this doesn't include the Scandinavians, especially the Finns, who are stupendously drunk most of the time, just like us. Perhaps even more so.
I see no problem in social drinking. It's when you sit at home on your own drinking two litres of cheap cider on a tuesday night, to either relieve boredom or anxiety, that you might have to think again. Not that I've done that of course. Cough. :?
