Does 'wanting' alcohol always mean you're an addict?

Anna

I'm pregnant and I was telling some girlfriends that I can't wait to have this baby so I can have a beer. I'm really into microbrews and genuinely like the taste. I can't remember the last time I drank to get drunk or to change my mood.

Does this mean I'm addicted to alcohol. One of my friends is convinced I am because "people who aren't addicted don't 'want' or crave alcohol."
