How many beers do you drink a night?

[fartinmartin]

Just lately way too much , 4-5 a night with some scotch later on, trouble is the wife has noticed how much scotch. This evening have made a mistake, I bought another bottle of scotch to top up on the quiet the one the wife is looking at, oh dear this is dangerous territory, at first I thought it was a solution, now is scared stiff that she works out my scam , or finds the second bottle, I am not going to do this again !

I only drink one beer at a time.

 

[z-bob]

Lately if I drink one, I also have a second.

Yup. But I usually stop there. Usually.

Haven't had any in a couple of days because my pants are too tight. (it doesn't help that people keep shoving cakes and candy and sausages and cheeseballs and pie at me around the holidays)

For me it's typically four a night on average, rarely going higher than that on the weekdays, sometimes lower actually, but it's a pretty even four. I have a single cigar a day, when I get home from work, so I usually polish off a little over one during that time then the rest over dinner and the remainder of the evening before going to sleep.

During the weekends it's probably twice that, about 8 in a day. I know it's a lot and I know by medical standards it significantly increases my health risks, but whatever, I enjoy it. I don't do hard liquor like some other family members who's behaviour changes for the worse, so I'm acceptant of my drinking levels.

I bottle in 2 and 3 liter bottles, so 1!

 

[Orthobrewsky]

About 1.5 to 2, sometimes around 3, occasionally a bit more.

 

[ultra_cas]

I'm between 0 and 2 with the occasional evening going more. My kegs also last a long time, since my wife doesn't drink much anymore. I still have my summer wheat on tap that I brewed back in June, although it's getting close to empty. Of course, I have gone through one other keg since that, as well, and just tapped my IPA last week.

It would have been interesting comparisons if one's age was given along with the daily consumption. I know my consumption was certainly higher when my age was lower!

I celebrated the 20th anniversary of my 29th birthday in July.

Weeknights I'll have no more than 2-3 7-11% brews

On the weekends, I might drink 4-5 a night, but no more than that

I like beer, but always in moderation

Moderation's great,

[worlddivides]

Most nights I have between 0 and 3 (haven't had beer in four days now actually), but about once a month, I might go all the way up to the equivalent of 10 (I say equivalent of 10 because I never have that much beer, but I might have whiskey or rum that brings it up to the equivalent of 10).

 

[A2HB]

There hasn't been a day I haven't had at least one beer in like 10 months

 

[watermelon83]

None on work nights or the next day sucks hards. My days off, 6-12 depending on strength and the following days activity.

 

[DaNewf]

Between 0 and 6. Some of the 0 nights are nights I'll have a couple glasses of wine instead of beer, others are nights I give beer and wine a miss altogether. 2 is pretty much my max for work nights. Weekend nights will go from 3 to 6. 4 or more and I regret it a little the next morning (sucks getting old(er)). I could handle more if I were somewhere I could dance the alcohol out of my system throughout the night but that doesn't happen very often these days.

Hahahah YES! "Gettin' drunk and stoned, boys!!"

I'm 31 and up till recently I would drink 2-5 pints on any given night, with 4-6 pints on weekends. But now I'm focusing on no more than around 2 pints on week nights and trying to keep it about the same on weekends if there's nothing special going on. I don't need to make the excuse to myself that since I can sleep in, it means I can drink a lot more. That just wrecks my productivity.

 

[wolfej50]

1 beer or 1 glass of wine most nights. I may 'binge' at parties up to three or four at most. Often, nothing at all.

 

[clockwise]

Too much or not enough. I can't decide.

 

[ChiefIlliniwek]

Weeknights: 0-2. Weekends usually 2-3.

 

[Darkness]

Well I try and drink only what the day requires. Some days none others 3 bombers of 10% or better all depends

 

[Orthobrewsky]

I had a little more tonight (about 3 and a half) because I was grilling salmon. It always seems right to drink a bit while keeping hot smoke on meat and then you need some to wash it down and cleanse the palate before tasting the next juicy bite. Mmmm....salmon....

I did not have a single drink last night.
Instead I binge watched netflix.
Tonight is a different story

Learn to multitask. Beer Lord is displeased at your lack of devotion.

If anything, I want to drink more beer while binge watching Netflix...Archer, Futurama, or Trailer Park Boys...I HAFTA drink beer. Takes all of myself control though to not just get f*cked up every night with the kegerator in sight.

I've been having around 3 pints a night this week, which is more than I want to consume, but stuff has been going on.

 

[Rotgut]

Usually 2-3 drinks for me. But not always beer. I also enjoy mead, wine, bourbon and Scotch.

Sometimes more on the weekend. And I try to go for a no-drink day once a week... usually ends up being more like every other week though.

I rarely get drunk - only when at parties, which are rare for me.

 

[seefish]

Not as much as I'd like....0 to 1 on a weeknight depending on if I had a workout. Probably 2-3 on a weekend.
