Time to fess up men, or girls as the case may be.  This is not supposed to be an appendage measuring contest either.

WARNING.
This could end in tears and may be a useful tool for your life coach.

I brew mine and go through about a keg ( 18L ) every 3 weeks.  This is just a beer or three in the afternoon at home.  We go anywhere,  which is rare I go through the bottle o and usually have a brick of cans on standby.  This lasts a few months.  in the winter it slows down a bit, more brewing than drinking but then a few rums go missing during the footy and the odd evening.

A mate at work gets three X  30 packs of heavy cans a week, every week.

Anyone else  wish to share?

Well i was a big drinker.. was not unusual to go thru 2-3 cartons a week, plus a few long necks thrown in for good messure,

But these's days, a carton will last a month or more,,, no long necks either..

At home a carton will last 2 months.  In the camper a carton will only last a week.

Normally only drink when there is an occasion, Friday is sometimes an occasion, everyday camping is an occasion. When there is an occasion I go hard or go home.

Not hard to knock a few back if the conditions are right.
Can go a week without a drop, then again a 30 box of cans can last only two night nights if the conditions are leaning towards a wee bit of a slurp.

Warmer months = 1.5 to 2 cartons a week.
Cooler month = 1 carton a week
Camping= quite expensive. ( according to her)

I drink more UDL's than beer.. beer leaves a dead taste in my mouth most times.

4 or 5 cans of a night after work, but if I have to drive the kids anywhere, then I'll only have 2. That's one of the strict rules I impose on myself.

Naturally, more when we're away. Bought home 4 cans from 2 slabs from this weekend at Walkerville.

During summer 1 bottle of home brew after work. 
I wish I had more Grolsh 1.5 litre ones to refill   ;D

A slab mite last a fortnight or longer.  I like mixed drinks:

Beer, then Wine, then a Scotch & Water, then a Port.  Thats a good mix. Throw in a stones if in the scrub.

I have a dozen beers sitting in the garage fridge, they have been there for 12 months. Couldn't even give them away to Speewa.

I used to clean up a 700ml of JD in a weekend (fri, sat, sun) now I'm down to a bottle every 2 weekends or so.

If I am camping it is strictly, 2 cans of JD per man per day as I am usually the driver.

I only drink if there is a word "Day" after the name.  ;D

That will depend how much fluid I need to recoup on a hot day and being in Cairns it's hot everyday.

Camping is a different story, too scary to mention. I do attend meetings but I BYO.  :cheers:

Not a great deal of beer, I don't mind a Corona or two when it's really hot, Vic can get stuck into XXXX when the mood strikes.  We're mainly bundy red or JD drinkers...amazing how much longer a bottle lasts when you put the nip pourer on!  Don't mind the odd blender full of Margarita's either, and have been known to do a fair bit of damage when we have a cocktail night.

Hi,
   bought a 6 pack of stubbies in the Bootleg Brewery, Margaret River WA in 2004, gave 2 to an auto-electrician in Port Augusta on our way back who helped us out on our way over, gave 2 to a nephew and drank the last one on a hot day last summer.
I guess I'm just not in the habit of buying it.


cheers

So that's where we're going wrong D4D, but we have very tall glasses so thinking 3 or 4 fingers might be better :P
