    I was a bar/restaurant manager as well but in my previous life. My recollection is that the quantity of beer consumed in the name of the "necessary sampling and quality control" side of the job was more than the rest of the beer consumed - but it's all subjective to the individual I guess.

    From Friday - Sunday usually about 12/12 oz. bottles. If I go out on one of those days, take away 4 bottles and add the equivalent in ounces.

    Me - Not enough

    Wife - Too damn much

    Usually a dozen 12oz bottles a week, almost all in the evenings Thurs-Sun.

    Between 15-24 beers from 6-11% ABV.

    If it's a bomber, usually just 1 on the weekdays, but a few 12 oz bottles in lieu of that. Weekend you can increase that intake by about 3-4

    Typically about 12-15 bottles a week. Usually split between 3 or 4 nights I don't have to wake up too early the next morning.

    8 16.oz cans and 12 12.oz cans per week, roughly. Throw in a bomber or 22.oz for good measure.

    All varies on my schedule. Working retail never have the same days off, so maybe 6-8 a week.

    Ha! It depends on the week and/or the new beers I decide to bring in. But really, it isn't much. Probably about 1 or 2 beers total for the week.

    Bringing in new beers takes care of the necessary sampling but not the quality control, which is ongoing or certainly should be, especially if you are serving draft beer or happen to find some older bottled beer in the back of the beer cooler.

    I have a hankering for a beer everyday but I try to hold off til the end of the week. Before I discovered craft beer I'd drink maybe 1 night a week. But now I have to show some self discipline or I would drink everyday. I bought some double trouble and some stone enjoy by 5-17 on Sunday and it's been driving me nuts having them just sit there. Will probably bust them open on Thursday

    Depends if I went to the beer store that week. If I average the times I bring in a big haul and weeks I have none, I likely average about 4.

    Around 18 beers a week. I get in about 1 bottle a night (with the one being a bomber sometimes) and then around 10-12 between Saturday and Sunday.
