I am just finishing up a vacation across Ireland where I've been drinking a lot of stouts and noticed with the Guinness I get a lot of gas, I found this article,

well i drank some rice beer i made that had a FG of around 1.035 with a OG of 1.060...didn't know if i'm using alpha amylase it has to be a tag team event with gluco too...so i know first hand what A LOT of dextrins do to your gut....act as soluble fiber!

:mug:

(be glad they're not wet! ;))
 
Wow, 2014 post back from the dead! I thought it was new, had some commentary then looked to the left... lol

All I can say is if I drink more than 4 I also have some stomach issues. Going back and seeing how much OP admittedly was drinking, the answer was obvious. I personally can't drink 8 imperials without having negative effects.

=P
 
I'll add knowing this is a thread from 2014... Alcohol is an irritant to your stomach so it's pretty normal that drinking that much 10% beer will mess you up. Since I turned 40 I'm finding I can't drink more than 2 days in a row and no more than 2-3 beers when I do drink otherwise it's not a good situation. If you keep this up your stomach might develop alcohol induced gastritis which will take some time to heal from and can be uncomfortable and downright painful. Moderation is key as you get older.
Also, some beers just don't burn clean. SNPA is one of them for me even though I love that beer.
