As a guy I would bring my own beer because even if it was enough it wouldn't be the right kind unless the host and I shared tastes.
And a bottle of liquor because I couldn’t bring a lot of beer without intimating my mistrust of the host by bringing my own beer in the first place.
Edit: Also, if I was going somewhere I'd offer to bring all of the beer, and include a wide range and enough of what I like for everyone to leave satisfied.
And some liquor.
Bacchus is lord.
Heh. 27, the very age I decided there was one drink I would never drink any more... the next one. (Went t-total.)
Ive been sober 6.5 years now and have never looked back. Good on you, im proud of you.
Life's better. It's not hard. There's only that one drink I don't have any more. Easy. Easier, cheaper, feels better, better health... it's no great accomplishment. Never really liked the stuff in the first place. No more social calamities, is a nice bonus.
Are we talking 12 oz Bud Light bottles or half-liter Doppelbock?
If it's the latter, 4 are enough for a weekend.
If it's the former, that number is 0.
My brain was still processing the NASA story from the previous comment thread, while reading your comment. Processing the brand and sizes while relating to tampon was a surprising train of toughts.
It's really absurd. I've known men who claim that they have drunk an entire box (i.e. about 24 bottles) of beer in a night. Others are already done after 2 bottles, or don't drink at all, or just don't like beer.
Conclusion, ASK.
This depends on the person and the beer. Drinking a case of Miller light over a prolonged, maybe 8 hour period, is certainly possible. After all, 24 bottles is 8 liters of 95% water anyway, and 3 beers an hour. Light yellow beers are 100-150 calories each. Real people do this all the time. Sure, real people with a drinking problem, but still.
Drinking 24 heavy beers like porter, milk or Imperial stouts, or Belgian trappist beers would have so much sugar and higher ABV that it's very different and sounds like a disaster. Twice as many calories or more, and maybe 20-50% more alcohol.
Finns be like "one of us!" (internally, of course).
Though IDK, they might prefer spirits.
A gallon of mead is always an option. I will have 2 soon. Hoping the second will be ready for Christmas but I don't think it will clear up in time. Might just have it hazy.
Wow, you forgot to mention you use Arch, btw
I made mead ages ago and it was incredible. It didn't last very long though. The demijohns the mead was ageing in came with me across 4 house moves in 2 years.
I'd love to do it again if I ever have the space, but also, I only made that first batch of mead because I tutored a beekeepers son
Seven to twelve
Per sitting.
Well, I guess we now have some uncomfortable insight into your home life...

I know you mean like a six-pack of beer cans but for a moment I had the mental image of beer sold in tetra-paks and I really don't want to know what kind of unholy concoction would warrant that kind of packaging.
It is amazing to me that the Internet has taken a shine to that particular episode of TNG it's just so esoteric and yet generally people get the joke.
I mean don't get me wrong it was a good episode but in terms of the the entire series it was very mid.
It basically predicted the socio-communicative function of memes, so it tracks that it became a meme itself.

Why do you want to be drinking more than 6 beers in a session anyway :(
Is fun
Find out what (or if they drink) first!
There’s a easy rule. Allow ~ 45 min per beer and think how long the meeting will last. Most will actually not drink that much, but it’s good to have spare ones.
Do Americans really drink that slowly?
I'd say 2-3 per hour to begin with, but probably slow down around hour 6. For a weekend? At least 24, and probably want a bit of variety of styles in there too.
45 minutes??? Is this some rest-of-the-world thing I’m too Balkan to understand?
Can’t they just..wear a diaper?
