Shower wings
 
I don't get it. Drinking can't wait until you're out of the shower? You guys eat on the toilet too?

A psychology professor and 20 year career psychiatrist I once took a class with was a big proponent of shower beers. She explained that drinking a cold beer in a hot shower actually had the same psysiological effect as taking a Xanax. So there, it's SCIENCE. Drink more shower beer.
 
bought 12 pk of All Day on Monday... have consumed 1/3 via couch/football, 1/3 via outside porching, and 1/3 via hot post-workout shower.

the temp differential between hot water and cold beer really makes it awesome... especially when it drips down your beard and the coldness rustles your jimmies... and you don't care 'cause **** man, you're in the shower
 
For those of us who don't have much free time, multi-tasting is a must. Don't knock it until you try it.
I can't think of one time where I was in a rush and had to squeeze in drinking a beer. I'm not saying it doesn't happen, but it just hasn't for me.

I don't doubt there is some therapeutic effect to it, though I don't really know the extent of it. For me it's easier to enjoy a cold beer in a hot tub, or a cold beer while floating down the river in the summer. There's just something about being in a shower and having water splash around and in what I'm drinking that I don't like. Then there's soap and shampoo, I think it's the thought of all that that bothers me more than the possibility of it actually happening. I'd rather just wait to get out of the shower. I'm still relaxed when I get out. Plus, my showers aren't even 10 minutes long. I'm in and out most of the time.

Apparently this is more common than I thought after talking to a more people about it. Go figure. Maybe I'm in the minority. I should take a poll. I feel like I'm the only person who doesn't partake in a shower beer.
