No alcohol consumption, Christianity? Really?

As far as I'm concerned, Jesus didn't turn water into grape juice, did he?

I've read all kinds of stuff from more fundamentalist branches that it was actually grape juice or close to it because supposedly the alcohol content of the wine at the time was really small. *spends way too much time over at freejinger.org*
