Be careful with your labels. I could serve you 4 glasses of "American draught" from my fridge in 2 hours and you'd be spinning.

yeah, talk about babysitting your beer...

:laugh: never heard that term before. I've always asked if the person wanted me to slap a nipple on it. That's a good one, I'll have to use that :D

A beer 16oz in size should not take more than a few minutes to drink

30 Minutes is ridiculous... beer would be all warm and shitty

I vote for self pwnage

Light beer has about 1/3 less alcohol (it takes 16 oz of light to equal a 12 ounce regular beer), coupled with a full stomach it's normal to not have much of a buzz. So you have four beers in two hours on a full stomach meaning you "felt" about one beer's worth.

My question is why can't you get the lime flavored beer in something that isn't lite?

The first lime flavored beer that I can remember having is Tequiza, which wasn't a light beer. I have seen the 'lime added' beers around the store these days and none look appealing. A Corona or Pacifico with a slice of lime tastes great to me.

People have vivid imaginations when it comes to drinking. A friend of mine once told me that he got so drunk that he turned sober again. Pure B.S..

Drinking abilities are often overstated because the person remembering it was drunk.

Yea but being surprised after not getting drunk when drinking 4 beers in 2 hours is funny.

You would also think that everyone here can find the funny in that, but apparently not.

Dumbest comment ever. And I'm the guy with the robe & wizard hat beer-can wizard-staff photo. It's entirely possible to enjoy a beer without rushing it.

Yea but 1/2 hour for a beer??? It'd be nasty by then.

Not really. It wouldn't be ideal but it's not going to be completely flat or anything. Beer doesn't need to be ice cold.

Yea but by that time it's room temp and no beer should be room temp.

If drinking a Light Macro, then yes. If drinking something that actually has flavor then no.
