Why does the brain not store memories when you're drunk?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It does, but like: most brain functions, when alcohol is on board, those functions become impaired--more in direct proportion to the amount of alcohol imbibed. Too much alcohol ultimately stops the brain from doing much of anything, so be careful and drink responsibly.
