How much beer can you drink? (At a given time)

How much beer can you drink? (At a given time)
I don't know. Do you mean until I black out or what?

Apparently, more than you can. :p

I don't know, I haven't found my limit. Yet.

I don't know. Do you mean until I black out or what?
Yeah why not.

Yeah why not.
In that case I don't know. I usually end up drinking some vodka and tequila along with my beer. Even so I don't black out. I'm assuming it would take a whole lot of beer to get me to black out.

half a bottle of vodka but maybe just allot of diet coke I wouldn't know

Maybe It’s a good thing there cracking down on drinking where I get pissed (a graveyard woooo!)

4 litres of cheap cask wine before I pass out in a pool with a waterfall (and thankfully avoid drowing myself.)

For my fellow Australians, that's a whole gooner.

None, I hate the taste of it.

more than i can afford.... :(

I think I'm intollerant.

I think I'm intollerant.

well, you know what they say "Intolerance is evidence of impotence.” :eek:

Then (16 or 17 years ago)? Lots. Now? I havent had a pint in 3 or 4 years. Not that I'm recovering alco or anything, It was just a combination of circumstances.

I don't drink anymore, so probably very little.

To black out/be quite drunk: I think about 12 beers (6 liters). But it takes some time. Vodka then I need less amount and less time :)

I think I'm intollerant.
What?! You hate those who aren't like you?! :mad:

none it's got gluten in it, and the gluten free beer just tastes bad.

however, when I was not as stable and stuff as I am today, I could go through a fifth of vodka on my lunch break, it made the rest of the day so much more fun!

C'mon, some of my best posts are done while drunk (like this one). :p

You're right. Friends make friends post on NSG while drunk because friends know that we Generalites are amused by such things and are always looking for more blackmail material.

You should put "Warning: If drunk turn me over"...


Just so we don't get our expectations up as far as posting goes :p

I've never had alcohol other thasn communion wine, never been drunk. Big money waster.....

Only use I have for alcohol is the bottles, so I can make molotovs, for dealing with rabid flying tree squirrels.

Three to four beers in about an hour and a half puts me juuuuust on this side of drunk.

I'm a cheap drunk, and I love it. Back when I used to drink quite heavily, I'd usually drink a 40 (sometimes I had to puke before I could keep going). I don't know why I ever thought that was cool.

My dad shoots them with a 22 off his porch. He hates flying squirrels. For the longest time we thought they were a myth...that the only flying they did is when he shot them...until he managed to get one intact. No myth after all!

I actually got a friend of mine a shirt that said that very same thing.

Never tried that much beer. It doesn't taste good. In tequila, I measure about six cups before things get critical.

I'm not a beer person myself, but using the common 1 can - 1 shot ratio, I'm good for 10, at a stretch.

How much beer can you drink? (At a given time)

All of it.

I don't really know, as I have a nasty tendancy to forget things when my BAC gets above a certain level.

Friends don't let friends post on NSG while drunk.

Damn, what do ya do if you have no friends on NSG?

As for me, I stopped keeping track of how many I could drink a long time ago. The only time it registers is when I have to pay the tab. :(

It isn't, particularly. 40's are just really, really cheap, so its an effective way to get drunk.


For myself, I wouldn't know, as I don't drink beer. I'm a lightweight, though, so probably not much.

Beer is gross. I can handle a few coolers, though, before my stomach gets too full and I have to stop. People usually thinks I'm just being a wuss, but I honestly can't fit that much in my stomach. It starts to hurt after a while...

8 or 9 pints of snakebite will have me pretty trashed. more than that and i'll be ill and puking nasty purple stuff :p
so just beer would probably be 10 or 12 pints before i'm gone


used to have a friend who would say it was great going out on the piss with me cos i "can drink like a fish" (his words) and any night keeping pace with me meant getting royally wrecked :D
of course since then i found that getting drunk wasn't actually as much fun for me as i thought it was, so meh *shrugs*

None, I hate the taste of it.
*Points you in the direction of RTD's*

Ethanol and Lime Fanta is delicious.

I can drink you all under the table.

I've never been a beer drinker.
I have one or two, at the most... usually after drinking enough rum to kill my taste buds.
How much rum can I drink? I honestly can't put a number to it. It's been a few years now since the last time I really gave it a go.
Let's just say there was a hot blonde serving the alcohol at a wedding, and she was making me triples all day and night... not to mention we hit some tequila body shots... my head hurts just thinking about that reception... ;)

Well, probably 2 or 3 beers is my limit. I have very little tolerance. Last Saturday night I had the following, between 7 pm and 1 am:

2 hot chocolates with amaretto
3 shots sambuca
1 vodka and cranberry
1 "croaker" shot - vodka, peppermint schnapps, and kahlua
1 shot tequila

This had me pretty drunk, making out with some girl and crying about something (unclear on that). By 1:30, I was throwing up copiously. You don't even want to hear what my Sunday was like. ...so, you can see that I am a cheap date.

In my heyday... 16 to 20. Now, four to six tops.

Now you've messed up my understanding of Germans. :p

Well the most I ever manage is eight, and that's mostly because I apparently don't have a lot of space inside me gut and I just can't fit any more in. At most I was only moderately drunk then, and I've only ever been sick after drinking too much in the way of spirits. Never blacked out though. None of this is anything to be proud of, of course.

How much beer can you drink? (At a given time)
dunno, never counted pints, but the last time i counted my drinks i had 12 double g&ts, 2 pints of lager and a morgans spiced rum and coke. still had an almost full memory of the night except perhaps the last ten minutes or so which is unusual for me. the last time i got drunk i didn't count but it was a free bar and i have a four hour black spot in my memory and i ended up in jail so it was probably a lot more than that.

Usually more than there is available - during the world cup, a regular game consisted of me drinking no less than 3-4 liters of beer.

I think the most I have had were around 6 liters of beer (one crate of beer, 24 bottles à 0.33l) - but that takes its time (about a night of heavy boozing).
I'm totally fucked up after that and the next day doesn't exist, but there you have it.

BTW, shouldn't the question be, "How much beer can you drink before you have to go take a leak?"

Because the interesting part about that is when another beer-drinking rule sets in: "You go once, you'll never stop".

Usually good for the first 1.5 - 2 liters. Then it's a constant waterfall. :eek: :p :D

Which reminds me of a nice "game" people play around here called "beer run": a team consists of two players (or three playerettes) and a crate of beer. They have to "run" 2 clicks and reach the finish line with an empty crate. Hehehe. Always good :D

None, I hate the taste of it.Seconded.

I can't drink beer at all. I hate the taste, and I refuse point blank to drink it for any reason ever.

I'm not sure what the variance depends on, but sometimes I'm asleep after one beer, sometimes I can go through six, eight, ten with little noticeable (by me) effect. I do find those occasions getting fewer, because waking up the next day with a splitting headache just isn't that much fun. I know it used to be fun, the entire experience, but somewhere along the line the fun wore off. Does that make me old? :eek:

Meh, lots. I spent $60 on beer alone last night. *pats liver*

edit - that's 10 pints worth.

Have you noticed if it changes based on how much you've eaten beforehand?
Oh, that's a factor but I don't think there's an absolute correlation. Certainly if I skip lunch and slam a beer upon arriving home, I'm probably done, but not always. :) Haven't taken it to the point where I record my everyday doings, I'm not that curious.

Better question:

How old were you when you first got drunk?
Me? 14, and I live in the USA.

I tolerate about 6-9 shots of 80 proof vodka, then I'm gone.

I can do 12 beers, before the carbonation ruins my stomach, my alcohol tolerance is much higher.

too right... get bloated and full before you have your fill (of alcohol) sometimes here too.
though just to be pedantic, when people say "x many beers" are you talking pints or cans?

That's what spirits are for. :D

Well if last night was any benchmark about half a 16 gallon keg in a night

But beer is not my primary drink ... whisky is

i'm in no condition to count by the time i'm at my limit.

I'm somewhere between newly-legal drinker and lightweight. Works wonders for the bank account.

I couldn't tell you.

Last time I drank, I lost count of all the beer cans and bottles piled around me.

whisky... now ouzo, there's a drink as will put hair on your chest. man or woman.

Yup ... I can put away 2 leters of any whisky I have ever had in a night strati up

Well if last night was any benchmark about half a 16 gallon keg in a nightTo yourself?? How are you not dead? :eek: :eek: :eek: I can put away 2 leters of any whisky I have ever had in a night strati up
Jesus. Most I've ever seen anyone put away was a bit over a litre of gin, and he went on to piss himself.

As for myself, I have drunk only 10 pints in one sitting before, at which point I couldn't physically get any more inside me. Not that I wasn't fucking wasted, mind. I've drunk more units with spirits before, simply because they don't take up as much space, although I get less hung over than I do with beer.

I'll get buzzed off a forty, a twelve-pack will get me drunk, I think I'm blacked out at another twelve pack above that. Ah, the joys of living at a fraternity.

a lot,
me thimnk cela is veel better,people zal a la fin,
understand each other,the same way religion as well as politics do

:headbang:
why not?

I really don't know. I don't care for US beer at all, so I rarely drink it. If beer is the only hard drink on offer at a party, then I'll drink soda.

I quite like some of the beer in Europe. Even the same brands taste different there. But even then I get all bloated before I'm really drunk. Tipsy is about the best I can manage with beer.

I used to be able to polish of a bottle of hard liquor in one sitting NP. I don't know how many beers that is.
