    I just told my wife I plan on having a "feed of pints" for an upcoming celebration. She asked me how many pints are in a "feed of pints"? Suggested answers anyone?

    It's not a number of pints, it's a rate of pints. Say your guests average 3 pints every two hours, and you have 20 guests, then you need a feed of 30 pints per hour. :pac:

    It's more than a rake but slightly less or possibly the same, as an assload.

    A "feed"? Good Jesus. we need to measuare and analyse these things now?

    I go out and a drink. When I've had enough and go home.

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    You shouldnt drink, you will be on here after, talking about suicide again.

    A feed off pints is enough to make you very, very drunk.

    Its open to variation.

    Somewhere between a rake and a whole go, I'd say.

    Always hated the expression. Sounds like they're trying to drink enough pints to puke and then eating the puke. Ugh.

    How many were you planning to drink? That's your answer.

    Drink pints of Guinness if your sh1t is black the following morning you know that you had a good feed of pints.

    A feed of pints is the exact amount it takes to not remember how many you've actually had.
