I only drink Bud Select 99 long necks love the taste also less calories than bud light with the same kick. I usually drink 2 to 3 every night. On the week-end I drink anywhere from 8 to 12 beers. I start feeling happy after about 5. I don't drink liquor at all. Why? It does not agree with me and I get drunk really fast and then sick really fast. When I was younger I would go out to Gilly's and drink 3 shots of gin and drink 8 - 10 beers, which gave me enough courage to ask the ladies to 2 step. That was back in 1982 when I lived in Houston, Tx. and before the bar burned to the ground.

I drink like 2-3 times a month, and maybe get drunk 2-3 times a year. Takes about 3 beers (4.2 percent) to feel anything, drunk by 9-10, out of it by 12-13. This is at a beer every 10 minutes or so. I’m 5’10, 200 lbs of lightweight drinking lol. Just wondering where others stand, or have any interesting “most I ever drink” stories. Feel like this will be interesting discussion, and be sure to let me know what a ***** I am.
It depends on how fast you drink them. Slam about three and get a buzz going. I used to fish with a neighbor and that man could drink a lot of beer while we fished. I tried to match him one day beer for beer and wound up almost falling out of the boat. He was the champ no doubt. He flew B-52s (BUFs) during the Viet Nam debacle.

Cool story! Yea, time between drinks is certainly a difference maker. What were you guys fishing for?

Sounds like how my dad and his buddies would ‘fish’ at Lake Allatoona back in the day. Used to visit down there every summer when I was little.

I drink a lot..... can't catch a buzz on beer it takes too much of a commitment..... beer is a good to maintain a liquor buzz better though and it goes well with food.

Ugh.

I must be a lightweight cause I can't handle mixing beer and liquor.

Miller Lite is beer of choice.

I usually drink 6-8 during the weekdays when I get home. (around 6PM till 10PM drinking span). No buzz. The weekends, usually around the 12th or so I start to feel a nice buzz. Now,I do not slam beers or anything like that. But if UK is playing or one of my sports favs, I tend to drink at a little bit faster pace. But normal drinking, 12-14 beers.

Buzz? Maybe 4 beers...I don't get drunk but I'm a pretty big dude so it would probably take a lot (by my standards anyway)

I only really drink hard on weekends. Probably have 12-15 beers and maybe a few shots during a full Saturday of going out for noon games then continuing on for the rest of the day/night. Mix in a few waters in between.

During golf season, I probably have 2 or 3 long islands and 6 beers during a round and maybe a shot at the turn. Usually causes me to have a ****** last 4 holes or so. After the round, usually go get wings and have another 4 beers and a round of golden tee. By the end of that I am feeling drunk but since it is such a long day, I am not too ******. Never drive, always leave car at course and uber wherever we go after the round.

Drink once a month or so and feel pretty good after 3 or 4 shots of bourbon. 6+ and I'm drunk but not blackout. 10 or more if they aren't evenly spaced and I'm probably blacked out.

Once drank 52 solo cups of Bud Lite from the keg over the span of 4 to 5 hours at a wedding reception. I was pretty drunk then, but still walked in my house under my own power. That was the extreme for me as far as how many I've had in a single night. I drank six large drafts at Old Chicago once, those are 25 .oz glasses and that was over a span of an hour or so. Got pretty buzzed then because those were all high abv brews.

I agree with an above poster though, just go to straight stuff and avoid the beer. It is far more cost effective, lol.

Two of pretty much any drink is getting me buzzed. I haven't been drunk in ages, prob never more than 3 drinks in a night and that's really rare.

I'm on some medications that i really shouldn't consume alcohol with

You drink roughly 10 beers an hour for 5 hours.

Hate to tell you, but you’re full of ****.
