How many beers do you drink a night?

[beergolf]

Usually about 5 with an over under of 2. So that means some days 3 and some days 7..

 

[redwing_al]

I keg and most nights I have zero. I'd say on a weeknight I'll drink 2/3 every couple of weeks. If I don't have to work the next day or on weekends I've been known to have a few, but I never count. (or do I lose count?)

Anyway, I almost feel like I'm a disservice to my beer, but I sure love to brew and share!

 

[Cyclman]

Try to do a one-night-on, one-night-off schedule. Aim for the equivalent of 4 x 5% beers. But I love big brews, so this time of year a couple of bombers of 10%ers on a "big" night. When I do that, I make sure to work out the next day, or I am worthless.

 

[SteveHeff]

I usually only drink 2-3 beers per week. I enjoy my beer very much but I enjoy not having my additional 51 lbs even more.

Sounds like you're a good candidate for the "Help kill the keg" party. I've had a few of those. On the topic of things I've had a few of... Yeah, tonight is more than average.

Generally, I fill growlers to share with people when I need to make room. I have an IPA fermenting now, so it's time to get drinking.

I'm gonna kill the stout tonight while I watch the Packers kill Atlanta. I'm two pints in and that keg is light. Can't be more than one or two pints left.

My keg felt light 4 beers ago I can't believe this thing hasn't burped yet!
Packers are pounding Atlanta---

[Braufessor]

Something along the lines of:
*1-3 monday - thursday
*3-5 Friday and Saturday. Maybe more if there is an "occasion."
*2-4 on Sunday

 

[ktblunden]

More now that I keg. Usually 1-2, but on the weekends it can go up from there.

 

[MitDaseinBier]

I probably average 1 per weeknight. Course, I had a few for the Packer game...but thats important.

Weekend...alot more

 

[CJ1]

Zero to three. Three only happens about once per month. More often than not, it's zero.

 

[GluStick]

The wife and i would have approximately 10 between the two of us one night on the weekends. Lately it has just been zero due to the great news we received a few months back

 

[C-Rider]

I"m retired and bowl 3 times a week. I usually have one each noon during the second game.
At home I usually have one in late afternoon.
None at night so I don't have to use the bathroom in the middle of the night. LOL One of the "old age" problems.

If I'm w/friends 2 or 3. I don't do "drunk" anymore. LOL

 

[Calichusetts]

6 for me is pushing it on a weekend. Weekday is 3-4. Just a couple rules. No drinking until everything I need to do that day is done. 200 situps and 50 push ups per beer. Need to be able to drive in case of an emergency.

 

[Psylocide]

Why is this the same thread as 'how often do you drink?'

 

[skw]

Averagte night? 0-2.

 

[alf2617]

I have one beer with dinner(or right after) ~5 days/week. I've started kegging recently, so that number will almost certainly go up.

 

[Pyg]

1 or 2
weekend a few more than that!
But never too many!

 

[HB_in_Subic]

Since I am not working, I average about 2 or 3L per night. If I am out with Aussies, Brits or Irish, well.......

I limit myself to those outings only twice a week

 

[twohoundbrewery]

One bottle. Bottle size may vary.

(Alternate thread title: How big of an alcoholic are you?)

 

[lookwow]

0 to1 on a work night. I refuse to count on the weekend.

+1

 

[Mike_kever_kombi]

Just 1 a night....






















That's about all I can handle after drinking 7 or 8 at breakfast

 

[m00ps]

I'm a sucker for variety so I usually use all the tasting corks I have to cap opened beers and drink them 1/2 beer at a time. Plus, I can round that down so I end up drinking 0 beers at the end of the night...

But I can;t do any more than 4 total on a weeknight and reliably show up at work on time and wearing pants. I'm still a total lightweight

 

[bragona71]

depends.If my kegged beer is ready maybe 4-6 pints but if im drinking bottles 3-4..Its way to easy to just walk up to the keg and refill..

 

[beersk]

I'm a 0 to 2 person. It takes forever to kill a keg. I still have an Irish Stout from June and a Pilsner and brown ale from August on tap

You definitely need to brew smaller batches at this rate...

I'm in the process of cutting back from 3-5 per night to around 2 per night. Also adjusting my attitude towards weekends and not thinking of them as nights where I can drink more because I can sleep in later. It's all about moderation and enhancing my longevity to enjoy beer on a daily basis. I don't want to get the diabetes and/or liver problems when I'm 50.
So because of this, I'm thinking 5 gallons of beer is too much. But not sure I want to spend the money on smaller kegs either... it's a conundrum.

 

[normonster]

2-12

 

[Zekk]

0 on weeknights, usually 3-5 on weekends. I would rather just have water during the week and on weekends I just like to enjoy a few while relaxing with the wife

 

[z-bob]

I probably average about 1 per night -- but it varies quite a bit. My beer consumption goes way up during cold weather (also shifts to higher-gravity beers), then my weight sneaks up on me and I have to cut way back or even give it up for a while.

 

[oldmuttonhead]

I'd say my average is about 1 per night. It's probably either 0 or 2 for me. Lately if I drink one, I also have a second. If there's a football game on, that number could go up.

Being formerly gravitationally challenged (lost over 75lbs) I continue to watch my calorie intake. I try to partake only on days I workout (currently training for a marathon).

Figure a beer is roughly 150 calories, a bomber at 300. My normal 3-mile run burns about 500 calories, 6-miles burns 1000 calories. Weekends I'll go on a 10-mile or so run...after that I figure it's game on. Six is about the max I can drink of a normal ABV beer before I'm spinning. That's 900 calories.
