How much beer do you drink daily?

[duckmanco]

I have 2 on weeknights pretty much like clockwork. Maybe 3 or 4 on weekends....

Pretty much the same for me with some weekend nights ending up going for 4 pints or so... BBQ, cookout, growlers going to a friends house, then all bets are off provided I'm not driving.

 

[makomachine]

A pint or two a day - on brew days or at family gatherings it might go higher, but those are the exception.

 

[petie]

If I'm working 16 hour days , which is 3 days a week, I don't drink anything. The other 2 weekdays usually 1 or 2. On the weekends usually a sixer a day. I'm Scottish and German so I have a slight tendency to overdo it if I don't police myself. My wife tends to be a pretty good beer police for me also.

 

[EnjoyGoodBeer]

Damn, I do about 4-6 a day. Pretty much the same for the weekend. Nothing special for me then, just go to bed about 2 hours later. And these aen't BMC brews either.

 

[jerryteague]

I usually do 3 or 4 beers a day, and 6+ on my days off (which doesn't happen often). I'm thinking about taking a day off and finishing off that 6 pack of Noble Pils I bought yesterday though.....

 

[Bradinator]

I haven't been able to have a beer for 10 days due to an illness and then crazy amounts of work. If I want to keep my averages up for this month I should probably drink 20-30 beers tonight. Agree? Agree!

 

[BronxBrew]

A lot

 

[BuddyWeiser]

Don't count! Only old women count! Slááááááinte!

 

[Cruzn4aBrewzn]

Around six or so a day and on the weekends "especially with friends and family" I will just drink all day.... I usually don't get drunk or hammered but I love beer and will chose it over any other beverage any time!

 

[Ericbme]

I must say I can't have just one...2-4/day on average.

 

[petie]

I drive an hour each way on work days so when I work 16 hours it don't leave much time for anything.

 

[vtron]

Probably average 1 a day during the week and 3 or 4 on weekends. Unless it's football season. Then a lot more

 

[TBaGZ]

1 or 2 during the week.. Sometimes none. The weekend I am pretty good during the day because I am usually with my wife and 2 yo daughter doing errands and such until she goes to bed then I will have a few..more. If we are having or are at a gathering of some sort then all bets are off. lol

 

[DutchMafia]

I normally have 2 beers a night the only catch is I bottle most of my brews in 22 oz mugs so it is a win win!

 

[HawksBrewer]

I don't drink during the week, but on the weekends I'll definitely enjoy a few beverages, and as stated above, it increases during football/hockey season.

 

[Gitchigumi]

I usually average about 3 to 6 each day. I enjoy the hoppy malty flavors and it's a great relaxor for a stressful day.

 

[Zymurgist05]

Usually not a day goes by without at least one beer. During the week, I like to have a beer at night after everything calms down. On the weekend, I might have 2-3 over the course of the day. At 200 calories per beer, I can't afford to drink too many. At my age, it's hard to keep the weight off as it is.

Dude, you must be REALLY FAT! : )

 

[D-MOTITAN]

I drive an hour each way on work days so when I work 16 hours it don't leave much time for anything.

I feel your pain brother. So I went to a four day work week....wed thru sat. My life is much happier even thou my wallet is a little lighter. The kegs are a little lighter too......

 

[petie]

I got two kids in college. I can't let my wallet get any so I'm pretty much stuck where I'm at for now. Workin for a livin sucks. You'd think I'd be used to it after about 25 years. Oh to be a kid again( and know how to make beer).

 

[llevt]

I drink 2 to 3 pints per night. The problem is weight gain. I have gained 8 pounds in the last year despite walking 4 miles per day and riding my bike 50-60 miles per week!

I am now trying to brew moderate calorie brews...beers in the 150 calorie per pint range.

My problem is that I LOVE ipa's which tend to be calorie rich.

 

[scrambledegg81]

Until I get sleepy and go to bed.

 

[Genuine]

Usually 1-3 during the week and 4+ over the weekends

 

[Braufessor]

Sunday-Thursday, I would say I have beer 4 out of 5 nights. 1-2 pints. Friday and Saturday, usually 3-6 depending on what "events" are going on. Parties, camping trips, etc....... 10-15 are not out of the question.

 

[rhogg]

I just started brewing and really needed the bottles..... so I have been drinking 4-5 on weeknights and taking the opportunity over the weekend to collect many extras on top of the normal rotation. It's been tough but I have collected enough for several batches over the last month and a half. Couple hundred at the very least. Unfortunately I did have to acquire bottles by lesser means, but I am finally slowing down.

 

[fbaillargeon]

I was reading the how much do you drink thread..people drinking 5-10 beers a day sometimes.

It got me wondwring..Has anyone got health from all this ?

Canadian men are advised to usually drink 21 units of alcohol per week at most. This is less than 2 pints a day.

You also drink a whooping 2870 calories a gallon too.

I am a gout suferer myself. But did any one of you have diabetes, cardiac problems, etc or even plain old beer gut from picking up the hobby?

 

[harrymanback92]

Probably a lot of health effects. I'm in the 3-4 drinks a night group. Usually a beer or two and two glasses of wine.

I can't imagine that's healthy at all.

 

[GioGomez2010]

Damn I only have a pint a day about 3 days a week. Sometimes 2.

I'm pretty active so my gut is kept at bay, for now...

I don't eat regularly and have an insatiable appetite so the extra 3k calories is actually a lot of help to me.

I think my mental health has gotten better from both the creative outlet that brewing gives me and the fact that I need a few to unwind after working ALL day.

 

[crosschk]

Before I started brewing I would go months. Once my first batch was done, I had about a 1 liter bottle a night until it was gone. Next batch is in bottles now and I'm waiting to put em in the fridge. Then the cycle will start again.
