Beer drinkers

[Hector]

What has been your beer drinking max?

In my 20s...I once drank 18 beers (12oz)...I almost went for the entire case...but I also had tequila in my system...and well...don't remember much...until my buds told me the next day...lol.

Now in my 40s...I recently drank about eight beers at a friend's birthday party (over an eight hour span, so that's basically a beer an hour)...and a couple of shots of tequila...but I was fine.

But on an everyday basis...I will only have one beer with my dinner...and that's it...then on the weekends...I'll have about a six pack for Saturday and Sunday (three beers Sat, three beers Sun).

BTW...I recently had a physical...and my liver is perfect, lol.

How about you?

My drink of choice is Jack Daniels and Coke but If I'm drinking beer (corona or tecate) I can drink about 10 beers.

Now when I was a freshman in high school I almost drank a case of beer. I've never been so sick.

I really hate beer, never had more than a couple at an occasional time, just to be sociable.

I don't know the maximum beers I ever drank, as I have little memory of the several times I drank A LOT. In my twenties, if I was out drinking, 9-10 beers wouldn't be out of the question, and I wouldn't be too far gone, just have a really good buzz going. There were only a few times when I stupidly went way beyond that and got wrecked.

Now in my forties, during the week, I'll have a couple glasses of red wine with supper (sometimes a couple beers instead, but I find wine less filling, so better with a meal). Whenever I do feel like doing a bit more serious drinking (I find that happening less these days, I'm getting older and my single, care free days are behind me), I may drink 6-8 beers or equivalent (I like rum or Jack and cokes too sometimes) without too much problem. Doing more than that would be possible, and happens once in a blue moon, but that's rare these days.

Lately, with beer I've been a real light weight. One or Two Boddington's or Guinness and I'm pretty good. I like to have a beer and watch a documentary or something. But, when I go out, I'm usually out with the sole purpose of GETTING drunk, in which case I drink Rye and Cokes. And quite a few of them I might add
But, to answer the question, the most beers I've ever drank was probably about 12 or so, probably while fishing.

Oh yeah, I like Guinness once in a while, but I can't drink too many of those, maybe two or three. Not because I get drunk, they are just too heavy and filling for me.

I don't do it as much as I used to, but sometimes I also like to sit down in the dark and watch trashy exploitation movies on my big TV along with a six-pack or more. I pretend I'm in a 42nd street grindhouse back in the day (happily without scary fellow movie patrons and the smells)

Well back in the day I did a case of sisco one time and ended up in the hospital getting my stomach pumped for alcahol poisoning. Not my choice of drink. Had a buddys mom that worked at a club give us a few cases that would accidently fall off the truck and into her car. Man I think most beers at once I drank was at my wedding reception. Think I had a little over a case in a five hour span. Needless to say I remembering crawling to bed for the first honey mooners night in the new apartment. My wife wont let me live it down since I was supposed to carry her over the threshhold. Recently stopped drinking beer because I noticed I started getting a beer belly but I think nowadays I was having like one or two beers on the weekends. Goes down smooth especially on a hot day. Man I better stop typing I am already salivating. Fosters is the beer of choice but also like bud light.

I drink Guinness and Sam Adams. I do drink daily...about 2/3 beers with dinner and then after dinner while I'm unwinding and typeing to you folks. On the weekend though......TOTALLY DIFFERENT STORY !! I am a Brasilian-Irishman.....And I can DRINK BEER!!!! On a regular Saturday during the summer which includes Sports , sporting events , fishing , playing FUTBOL , swimming , and of course standing in front of the grill for hours , I'm good for about 30/40 beers and I'm not kidding. I'll start around 10 in the morning and go to about mid-nite. Now I have had problems with drugs in the past and have been clean for a long time , and some people will say that I drink so I'm not clean.......bullcrap !!! I'm not injecting myself with crud anymore so I'm clean!!!! but damn do I love to drink!!!! Plus I'm good at it

I don't drink beer too often. The stuff puts me to sleep.

So that explains some of your posts then. LOL!!! Kidding!

Friends don't let friend type under the influence.

BTW - I know that this thread is meant for drinkers and that is totally cool. I have absolutely nothing against that at all. To each their own. I just want to state that for the record I do not drink. I quit many, many moons ago. The only thing I consume any more aside from non alcoholic beverages would be a nice glass of wine with a nice meal from time to time. I used to drink back in my younger years running around with friends. That was then and this is now. It just wasn't for me. I never was real big into the drinking scene to begin with. I did it more or less to socialize with others. PLUS a friend of mine was killed by a drunk driver. So that is my story in case anyone wants to know....and if you don't want to know....That is still my story.

Nothing better than a nice cold beer right after work. I don't count how many I drink, I guess it depends on the occasion.

I can't stand the smell of beer. I'm sure it's great for cooking.

[Hector]

That's twice you mentioned that you don't like beer.

Perhaps I should start bashing POTA from now on.
