    True - the speed of consumption thing is something I'd forgotten.

    Usually I forget my true count when I get to 7 or 8, and we usually go to a few pubs so it's not like the bar staff can count either.

    However, one unique day, we spent all day in the Snooker Club. ie, football at 12noon, a bit of cricket, football at 4, a few frames of snooker, Spanish footie at 8...etc.

    Apparently the barstaff counted us as having 21 bottles each. That's 330ml bottles of Carlsberg Export, 5%. So..hmm, around 12 pints. Sounds about right.

    Last time I had anything like this was around 5 weeks ago.

        I honestly don't know as I don't stick to just beer in the course of an evening. Most often I'd start off with a few pints, move onto a few alcopops and finish off with a few shots.

        Hmm...what did I have on friday?...

        1.5 bottles of white wine
        One 5.5% vodka Reef
        One 5% vodka Smirnoff Ice
        One "shot" of cider

        That had me happy drunk, right in the sweet centre where you know it's not going to wear off soon but you're not going to puke. White wine added the giggles too.

        The best drunk was on a 12 hour long pissup I had a few weeks ago. Drinking anything/everything from 1 pm to 1 a.m. Didn't even notice that my ankle was twisted from 10pm onwards until I woke up the next morning.

            Drop for drop, they're stronger than beers in a similar price range.

              You talking about bottled beers? You might be right. Bottled beers

              That's why beer drinkers stick to pints.

                Starchild speaks the truth.


                I am ok. I can't consume many beers though. 4 beers and I feel sick. not drunk sick, but "Too much stuff in my digestive system" sick.

                With food, I can consume lots of liquor. Still, silliness, and hillarity ensue.

                  Well a double spirit in Wetherspoon's tends to be a similar price to a pint of strong beer...

                    That said, there's no way I'd turn down a fine Newcastle Brown or other proper ale in favour of a Smirnoff Ice.

                      Anyone ever seen Newcy Brown on tap?

                      They do Smirnoff Ice on tap in Dublin; wondering how long it'll take for that to arrive here.

                        I hate Smirnoff. for some reason, for me it goes down REAL bad. worse that some of the wino-feed local brands.

                          Maybe 14 pints on the right day, at least in my prime. but I'm not as strong a drinker as I used to be. Good, as it's a lot cheaper that way.

                            Its hard for me to fit enough beer in my stomach to get really drunk from it.... but once you get the rum in me I'm gone

                            2-3 beers per hour is enough to keep me happily tipsy

                              i had shots yesterday so if I convert shots to beer cans it would be 12.

                              But everyone knows you can drink unlimited amount of beer as long as you have something to puke out.

                                But back OT.

                                I've never tried to test how much I could take but I was at a party a while a go and sat on a chair and piled bottles up next to me. When I went home there were 15 there and I was still in reasonable shape.

                                So how many before you fall over?
                                I once finished a two-four and then had some tequila.
