Input: a reproducible example is best. With just pasting the id and
what the Alcohol heading says, it still leaves other things open to
chance... best would be a minimal config, minimal .org file contents,
and org version. Just my opinion. Otherwise a lot of emails are traded
just making sure everyone is on the same page. With the things I've
listed people can create an approximately matching setup to just try
it rather than guess at how to recreate what your'e describing.
