温酒烫眉烈酒灼心
[wēn jiŭ tàng méi liè jiŭ zhuó xīn]
'Mellow Wine Warms the Eyebrows, Strong Alcohol Burns the Heart' poetically compares the mild intoxication from lighter drinks (warming effect felt superficially) to harsher spirits (burning effect penetrating deeper, reaching the soul), conveying different impacts of drinking from physical warmth to profound emotional intensity.
