    I like to get 5-6 really long straws and stick 'em into a bunch of Bruery 750s and suck 'em at once, good times ensue.

    Depends on the beers but for an example... Last Saturday I had.

    12 oz. Sam Adams lager
    750 ml Arrogant Bastard
    12 oz Centennial IPA
    12 oz Crooked Tree IPA
    750 ml Single Hop Citra
    750 ml Stone Smoked Porter
    12 oz Two Hearted Ale
    12 oz FBS

    In about a 5 hour sitting.

    I tend to work way to much so when I do its at the most 2 12oz beers or a bomber all depends on my mood and how many hours ive worked

    That's a lot of beer. If you are refer in to bombers, 22oz is 650ml.

    I drained a growler last night between 7 and midnight. I usually do a bomber or 2 12oz about four nights a week.

    Usually no more than 2/night. Sometimes I don't drink at all. It really depends on what's going on with my kids sports practices/games.

    Last night, I had a Great Lakes "Nosferatu" with dinner, and then a SN Hoptimum for a nightcap.

    Usually one, maybe two, but I might go through an entire growler if I'm watching a baseball or football game on a Saturday or Sunday.

    I don't make plans, but I'm never without some good choices on hand. One day can be lean, the next day family shows up and all hell breaks loose. I drink my standard Foothills Jade late afternoon and might have a couple or three before and after dinner. Tomorrow is always another story.

    Usually 3-5, not every night but most nights. Weekends are a free for all, I have no regard for calories so its how ever many I can drink before I feel like I'm gonna puke....

    I guess that's sad....

    Cheers!

    Might be 650s. I don't really pay attention to the volume size of most big bottles.

    On a Friday or Saturday night? I'd say between 4-6 most of the time. I rarely drink during the week.

    I try to limit myself to only having beer on Friday-Sunday. If I'm on my best behavior, I'll keep it to one bomber per night. If I'm bad or the beer I'm drinking is low ABV, I might knock back another 12-ounce bottle. Generally I drink just enough to make me happy, rarely do I get drunk (drunk isn't the goal for me).

    Drink one bomber typically on weeknights, weekends depend and are usually quite different. But I typically don't drink more than one craft bomber on the weekends because the beers that follow are consumed with a different intent, and I wouldn't want to waste good beer.

    I control my drinking during the week and limit myself to 10 beers of 7.5abv and anything stronger I will only drink 9 max. On the weekends, which I count as Wednesday - Monday, I'll drink around 20 beers a day max, but keep in mind this is the weekend, so that 20 is over the course of a day.

    As with most people, it depends.

    On a "tasting" night, usually the equivalent of two bombers over the course of 3-3.5 hours or so. Varying ABV's, but lets call the average around 9%. This is usually once a week, sometimes slightly less.

    On a work night when I just go straight home, it's either one or zero beers. If I go to happy hour after work, it's usually 2 there, and then zero when I get home.

    Football Sunday? Depends if the Packers win. :slight_smile:

    -If I have like a Build-Your-Own 6er:1 a night (to make it last)
    -Growler: 2 drinks
    -Out at a bar: 3
    -Out at a restaurant: 2 (because of food expense)
    -At a party, wanting to get drunk, and Miller, Bud or Busch is only available: switch to hard liquor

    Typical weekday I'll usually have one strong beer with dinner, and maybe another as dessert. Football sundays I'll get into a handful of more average ABV beers.

    I don't always drink beer. But, when I do, I prefer to drink more than one at a time.
