From what I have seen, drunkenness is the issue in the Bible, not drinking in general.
There are people who shouldn't touch alcohol according to the Bible because they are under specific vows or callings. Just like they are forbidden to cut their hair or eat certain things.
Those restrictions applied to them, not to everyone else.
The Bible does recognize special restrictions for specific people, but it never turns those into universal moral laws.
On a personal level, some people may decide to abstain from alcohol.

What does the bible say about greed, adultery, lying, and spreading hate?
"Stop calling us fascists! Now move over while we rig the election while accusing the other side of rigging the election!"
