bibbing
Frequent alcoholic consumption
Bibbing is drinking, especially drinking alcohol frequently or habitually.
The word comes from bib, an old verb meaning to drink or tipple.
Bibbing carries a mildly humorous or old-fashioned tone: His weekend bibbing left him sluggish on Mondays.
A person who bibs is a bibber—a wine bibber drinks wine to excess.
