    3-4 is my average. More on nights when I don't have anything to do the next day.

    Usually 3 IPA's per night. I love DIPA's, but those calories will do you in. I find myself working out more so I can drink more.

    Pretty much what I'm in the mood to drink. But since I only drink on weekends [Friday p.m. to Sunday p.m.] it's usually around 3 or 4 on Friday night and 4 to 5 on Saturday & Sunday.

    I guess I'm the only binge drinker on beer advocate. Oh well. I only drink on weekends but when I do I session low ABV beers. Im not going to say how much but it makes 3-4 look laughable. No apologies. I have an active job and I'm a marathon runner. And I love beer.

    Anywhere from 1 to a whole lot.
    During the week if I drink it's usually just one 500 ml unless I'm out. At the weekend anything goes.

    Right now it's 1 during a week day and maybe 2-3 on weekend. If I go over this, its not good for my wallet. Only one income in household and I'm trying to get into grad school.

    At home? 1-2, generally. Unless it's 'one of those nights.'
    At home, with guests? A beer every hour, approximately.
    At parties? One per every half hour, approximately, from start to finish (generally lower ABV beers).
    At bars? 2-5, depending on if I'm driving, what they have to offer, etc.
    Restaurants? Usually just 1.

    It all comes down to how long I'm drinking, what I'm drinking, where I am, and if I have to drive. An average night at the bar, assuming I don't have to drive, would consist of 4-6.

    At a party? Probably 8-10, assuming I'm drinking a 4-5% ABV beer.

    An evening at home, drinking alone? 1-3 craft beers.

    Hanging out with a few friends while watching sports? Similar to the bar, so 4-6.

    At home: Usually 1 or 2. Maybe 3, staggered over a few hours if I built my own sixer of new brews. I try avoid a buzz if I'm tasting/reviewing a new beer.

    At a restaurant: Typically just one before my food comes out. If I'm with friends, I might order another after the meal while we sit around and talk.

    At a bar: Anywhere from 2 - 7, depending on ABV. I'm not really a big guy, so I generally end up getting a stomach ache before I achieve a solid buzz from low ABV brews.

    I don't like surpassing that initial buzz, so I try to limit my drinking as much as possible.

    At a bbq last night I was double fisted with a Torpedo and a Cafe Racer for a moment but I try to only drink one at at a time...

    As others have said, perhaps 2-4 in a "sitting" in general, perhaps 2-3 on week nights, sometimes less... After the fists full of deliciousness it was a few C- and I was done.

    Week nights it's usually 1 or 2 12oz or 1 bomber (not every night, but maybe once or twice) Weekends can range from 2 to 6 depending on style and what I'm doing.
