How are people able to drink pints?

briany

I mean physically. Like, knock back 6 pints of whatever in a relatively short space of time. I could drink some lager/stout/cider quickly - like possibly a 3rd of the glass if I'm thirsty, and then just sip the rest of it over a longer period of time. I wouldn't even be a fan of beer, but I'd be the same even with a drink I do like, served in the same format. I've heard about beer being more dehydrating and being easier to drink more of, but I've never really found that.

Do people just have to train themselves to do it? Do they force themselves through some pain barrier in order to become a pintman or pintwoman?

I was staying in the Europa Hotel in Belfast, drinking lovely Belgian beers. Heverlee in Heverlee glasses .Took the glass up to the room and then home. Hand a pint can at home (1 pint can not 500mil ). Glass didn't take i at all bastards in the Europa are skimming customers

I have some serious problem with drinking beer, even gluten free beer. I used to think it was just normal that if you had a couple of pints you spent the night throwing up and dry retching. Probably only realised that it was just me when I was about in 2nd year of college or so.

Cider, spirits, wine, anything else has no effect on me but beer... Literally just feel like I'm going to explode with gas and start throwing up.

The key is Maureen having the fry in the morning.

I reckon they've been slowly reducing the size of pint glasses over the years without anyone noticing to make us all drink less

I never really took big slaps of pints, 2 or 3 pint man in the local once or twice a week. Not a night club man since my 20's, but to answer ' how do I drink pints?.' HAPPILY

Quantum Erasure

can't handle the pints myself, so i just get two half-pints instead, they go down horrid easy though....

Packet of crips and an auld packet of peanuts. I find that helps.

After that, there's no fúckin' shtoppin' me. I'd take the shirt off any man's back.

Drink what you can, at your own pace. Have something to each before hand, doing it on empty stomach is not smart

If you can only drink 3 , drink 3. Some nights you can go on and do 5-8 ............

Never a big fan of pub crawls which leads to be fair bit of chugging bear as fast as possible. I despised 12 pubs of Christmas for similar reason.

The most insufferable people are those who tell everyone that they drank X amount of pints last night, as if it is some sort of achievement. Maybe when we were 16-25 that sounded Cooooolllll ,but after a while its meh

Drink for taste too. When one was younger, and keen to shown their masculinity , one could drink any auld pee.......... Some beers and largers are and always were mank . If you prefer to fruity wine , do it .........

I used to drink copious pints when I was 18, 19, 20. Then the physical act of drinking them, even a little, became unpleasant. I'd feel a hint of a fog in my head after just a few sips of a pint and I didn't like it. My bladder would fill up after just a few minutes and this would continue all through the evening in the pub to the point where it was a total drag. And I'd be in and out to the bathroom all night to pee, so there wasn't much sleep to be had, and then waking up the next morning with a hangover, after just two or three pints.

So I gave up alcohol entirely when I was 22, almost 20 years ago at this stage, and haven't had a drop since then. I'd rather drink p.ss now quite honestly. Have never missed it, either. Totally allergic to it, perhaps literally.

I would slow down fairly rapidly back when i did drink. It is strange though - I could sink 3 pints without the need for a pee but that’s impossible with water, or anything else.

Pintman isn't just a name, it's a lifestyle. You have to LIVE it.

Next time you're in the pub, put on some straight cut jeans, brown shoes, and a jumper that's 2 sizes too big - the pints will practically fall down your throat.

Like Hector here says, just skull them hai!

Snails pace

I find after a hard days work out in the open air particularly at concrete or covering a silage pit. I'd swallow 3 or 4 pints within about half an hour and then I'd slow down. People drink at different rates.

Most alcohol abuse stems from unresolved childhood trauma. People who start drinking excessively basically train themselves into killing themselves with booze.
