How much beer do you actually drink?

As a Mate said to me yesterday, "its West Coast Coolers for you from now on Mate". He said that because i got the snip yesterday. 2 beers a day is my usual, heavys of course, (except before Nightshift Symon!).

Well after being O/S for 6 months for work, I really couldn't have any however, now that its chrissy holidays for me til the 29th of Jan, well I guess 5-6 beers a nite wouldn't be hard. However, during the normal work week, 3-4 would be the norm.

The REAL question is how much $ per month do you spend on beer/alcomahols?   

It costs me $20 a month for the five bottles of rum I consume, oh the joys of home brew.

I can't, well I could but I can't drink more because I drive a B-double all week, so I have too be a good boy.

It's more about the "what" rather than the "how many" for me these days. I enjoy selections from the craft beer aisle at Dan's, usually. I can't seem to drink more than 5 out of a sixer before my wife is taking me home. Probably good timing. Hangovers just about wreck me for the weekend these days.

Thinking of doing spirits (scotch or bourbon) as well, what still do you use?

What essence  brands do you use?

Hi Mace,

I use the Still Spirits 25Ltr Super Reflux Still and the same brand essence.

The one I would buy now has a tall tower on it and will give 95% alcohol from the stilling process and you don't need to keep an eye on the temperature all the time, plus you can mix and drink straight away. After you have broken it down to 40% of course.

I also mix in a good tablespoon of glucose syrup per 5Ltrs of alcohol and this makes for a very smooth drop. If you stick you mixed brew in the freezer, yeah you read that right, for 24hrs it will mature it like a 12mth old brew.

Thanx, will check them out. Something to think about in  the new year.

Will remember the freezer trick too.

Couple of Coopers Pale every camping day and try to stay away from those metrosexual crafted potpouri smelling beers.......... for all other occasions there is Mount Gay rum...
