For me the first few days to a week I think about alcohol often and then it tapers off to the point that I don't think of it at all. I do think of it when it is an occasion (like VD or st pat's day or we have a street concert etc) but day to day it doesn't cross my mind. Maybe you need to give it more time. I don't know if the fake beers are contributing to your thoughts but probably.
