So i went out with some friends of mine over the weekend and this is what occurred. (times are approx)
6:00pm - Arrive at his house, nothing unusual there.
6:05pm - I have a regular bottle of San Miguel.
6:30pm - I have another bottle of San Miguel.
6:45pm - I have some wasabi covered nuts and some olives with feta.
7:00pm - after 2 bottles of beer in the hour i decide to slow things down and have a pint of water.
7:10pm - Taxi arrives and takes us to Headingley.
7:30pm - Have a pint of Carlsberg
8:15pm - miss a round as i still have half my pint.
8:15pm - My mate gets me a pint anyway!
8:45pm - Im feeling somewhat lubricated at this point bear in mind i have now supped 2 bottles and 1 and 1/2 pints of beer.
9:00pm - I get some water (im actually know as the water boy as i always get waters for everybody when its my round.)
9:05pm - Am sent back to the bar to get ANOTHER beer, however i use my noggin and get some coke which i said was JD and coke as i was feeling gassy.
9:30pm - Have another water, which i downed and then had half a black sheep.
10:00pm - Go home and fill my smoothie maker jug with water and take it to bed.
Now to me thats a decent effort. Id say average. On my day i think i could drink 4 or 5 pints in an all day sesh, however i am just a very sensible young man, who is never EVER seen drunk in public.
After max 3 pints im so very tipsy and cannot drink more. There is no way im a lightweight, im a very strong drinker.
I challenge anybody to tell me HONESTLY that they drink more than 6 pints in a 6 hr period!

Yeah, I suppose theres a time and a place for most drinks. Guinness would be my usual go to guzzler.
I suppose balking at the ABV was a bit unfair as I am tomorrow bottling my 4.5% summer back yard brew. Thats low enough for me to sit in the sun for an afternoon with

My lass has read the comments I'm this thread and said "told you you were weird!".
I guess getting pisssed on 2and half pints is my cross to bear, but I am not ashamed. It seems I share web space with leather livered savages.
Will I increase my intake to prove what appears to be the alcohol tolerance of a newborn? No, no I won't. I am secure in the fact that my body is indeed a temple if you will.
Will I improve as u hit mid 30s? Who knows but I bet none of you in this thread can shave your scrotus baggus with a throat cut every Friday with less than 2 nicks.

It's harder to get away with now, but I used to do 3 at lunch at least once a week. More at weekends.
4+ pints and you just didn't go back.
then you just waited for the rest of your mates to return at 5 for the evening session

In the good old days working for bmi it was standard 3 pint lunch every day. The most we managed was 7.5 pints (Stella) one Sunday watching the footie! Don't think much work got done in the afternoon...... The worst thing they ever did was change us to an 8 hr shift pattern instead of 12. The morning shift would hit the boozer every day at 2pm and still be there when the afternoon shift piled in for last orders! Aaaaaah those were the days! Drinking at lunch wipes me out for the day now!

Try six pints of Youngs Special or six pints Wadworths 6X and then trying to work in the afternoon.
That is a decent challenge.
Been there done that.
Then 6pm out for happy hour (do they still have them...?)
Bitter is great.
Lager is for soft southern types, yuppies and folk that sit on benches at 10am shouting at buses. Lager drinkers (in the eyes of a committed bitter drinker) have a little umbrella and a shot of blackcurrent juice and drink with their little pinky sticking out at a silly angle. They invariably talk in a loud voice and chew gum to mask the taste.
