Flying on the UD of the 747 last year, I ordered a Woodford for pre-dinner drink and was served a double (unrequested). When they offered dinner drinks, I asked for another Woodford (didn't say double) and was served another double along with a lecture about how I needed to take it easy for awhile because I'd had "4 drinks in a short time." FA was an older female who seemed to be MSP-based. I wasn't planning to drink anymore because I wanted to sleep as soon as I was done with dinner and my movie, but I still felt that her attitude was insulting. The same FA also kept topping up my wife's wine glass faster than she could drink it.
