Oh, if you’re already admitted definitely don’t worry about this - this is very very common. I’ve had wine with my advisers many times.

But…I wouldn’t make the mistake of using it as a way to get comfortable around your adviser. You shouldn’t be drinking enough wine or beer to “get loose” or feel tipsy; perhaps a little buzzed, but very clear-headed. Drink slowly. If you have to drink wine to feel comfortable around the PI, something is wrong lol.
