    Not trying to pull any hairs, just curious! I'd like to know how craft beer patrons compare to redneck hillbillies that guzzle bud light like it's a replacement of oxygen. (I grew up in up-up state NY)


    here is the key to this thread working: DO NOT answer if you dont want to.


    thanks!

    Only on weekends - for diet/weight purposes. I'm good with my diet & beer consumption from Midnight Mon. to 5:00 p.m. Fri. Otherwise, I'd be 400 lbs. in no time and broke too.

    Usually 1 when I get off work and 1 or 2 at dinner. These could all be bombers or 750s though soooooo maybe it should count for more than 1.

    Pretty much at least 2 a day. Some days none, but some days 10 or more depending on when I start.

    4-5 days out of the week. Occasionally a week off here and there for "cleansing," you know.

    Well, I'm part redneck hillbilly and I limit myself to once a week. I have as much as I want that one time and leave it alone through the rest of the week. During the holiday season I drink more than that sometimes, as well as on special occasions.

    Plattsburgh. Freakin' Canadian boarder lights can keep you up all night if you were unlucky enough to have a window facing the wrong way. Slight hyperbole there, but you get the picture.

    I've noticed it happens every time I open a bottle or can of beer.

    That's it.

    Well, except if I'm at a bar.

    I work in a kitchen, so one or two a night when I get home :wink:

    Sometimes more, but usually I'm one and done. If I have the day off on the next day I'll have 3 or 4. Of course there are some days off thrown in there, but fewer days off than on.

    weekends mostly, but sometimes a midweek "hump day" can be a beautiiful thing. My problem is I can never just have 1 or 2....................

    Pretty much every day. If I feel like brew, I have some, if not, I don't. Didn't have any yesterday, for example, and it's too early to tell how today will go.

    3-4 nights per week. 1-6 beers depending on the night but typically not more than 4. At one point I was having 1 -2 per day just trying to learn.

    M-Thursday its normally 1 beer per day, and it varies from a 6oz pour to a bomber, depending on location and beer. Friday-Sunday its usually 3 to 4 beers and I might skip one day just because (If its Stella, Sierra Nevada PA or something similar then a 6 or 12 pack might do).

    Sunday night through Friday evening = 0
    Friday evening through Sunday afternoon = 12-16, 5-6%, 12 oz. beers (that means if I drink and entire bomber of a 14% beer it counts as 4 drinks).

    Wow that is up there indeed! How easy is it for you to get craft beer up there?
