Man, this was, like, all of 2020 and 2021 for me. It took its toll on my mental health, that's for sure. I went back to using smaller glasses. The psychological affect is pretty powerful. Plus, like another said, you can bounce around taps more without getting f*cked up. Having said that, I still oftentimes give myself good healthy pours when I'm feeling like pounding some beers. And I've got 4 taps!
Jesus, dude. That's an extremely excessive amount of brew. Maybe you're just in a perpetual state of hangover that you don't even notice it, and that becomes your baseline of "feeling ok"? Not trying to be your doctor, but damn... maybe take it easy on the 5 gallons a week?
But still less than half of what he originally claimed.
I never claimed to drink 20 beers a night every night. Week nights 3 or 4. Friday and Saturday 15 or so, maybe 20 I don’t really count them, and I wasn’t trying to brag about it. I’m surprised this is so controversial in a brew forum. I know plenty of people who drink a suitcase of bmc in a sitting. Anyway this was supposed to be a scientific thread
Don’t care what you think bro. It’s not uncommon at all for me to put away 20 beers. And when I say beers I mean 12oz beers, as compared to the beers you buy commercially at the beer store. And when I say 5 gallons a week, most of that is Friday and Saturday night. 15 or so in 8 hours is not even hard to do if you like beer. What’s hard is not drinking that much5 gallons per week = 40 pints per week = 5.7 pints per day
Seems like a lot.
Righto friend. I actually stuck a dry erase thing on my keezer so I could tally my drinks but it took about 2 days to say f that. A I don’t need my wife judging me and 2 what’s the difference. I’m not going to cut myself off… and maybe I’m better off not knowing. This brewing thing is supposed to be fun, ammaright
There is probably some truth to that. I would imagine that my baseline is different from a completely sober person’s baseline. But also a serious hangover is impossible to miss. I used to get them, now I don’t. The amount of **** that I get done in a day I would put up against any sober normie out there. My body metabolizes my brew like it’s a life saving elixir. I don’t know why but I like it
Hard stuff? Virtually none.
You're an alcoholic. Or from Australia.
Or from Colorado.
Seriously man, you're an extremist. Most homebrewers are in it for the craft, not for hangover-free binge sessions. Please be careful and never drink & drive.
I still don't believe you. Like I said, that's going to put your BAC in the 0.3 range, which is approaching unconsciousness no matter how acclimated you are.
No,that never happens
I 100% lost count after 4 or 5. My reason for guesstimating about 20 is A. 20 over the course of 8 hours is about 2.25 per hour which seems about right and B. If I tapped a 5 gallon keg on Friday and floated it on Wednesday and didn’t drink much during the week than I must’ve had about 2 gallons on Friday and a gallon and a half on Saturday… Also if my friend can have a laugh drinking 15 why can’t I?
Pretty funny coming from a Wisconsinite. The most alcoholic state in America. But yes I do enjoy my beers, and no I don’t drink and drive. And I am also 100% in it for the craft. I’m going to open a brewery and my beer is going to be so good that everyone is going to be drinking 20 beers a night. Even the stiffs up in Wisconsin
Haha where you go to get lectured on your drinking habits by a bunch of lightweight bootleggers eh? Thank you, It’s good to be here.Welcome to homebrew talk Kenny
I you tap a 5 gallon keg on Friday and float it on Wednesday without sharing any then you are in fact an alcoholic, and a selfish one to boot.
At least you finally answered the question from two days ago. 8 hours is much different than 4 or even six. But that's still a pretty unhealthy pace. Not for the first hour but definitely for the eighth. The lightweight bootleggers are all going to outlive you, probably by a lot.
i skipped to the post reply, again maybe....drinking homebrew helps a person think for themselves to the lizard people....
Maybe so, maybe not
My guess would be that brewing beer doesn’t grant one immortality.
Yeah I didn’t think about that
that's one hell of a deep joke....but i assume your trying to play it on me?Thanks Kickass. You’re invited to my brew day. It happens every Friday and is followed by drinking as much ****ing beer as you want before getting up hangover free Saturday morning and snowboarding all day. Because life is good when you’re not a *****
Ha, well it’s got two S’s my guyguessing at the ****er or *****....or my lack of counting skills, in either case
