Borderline alcoholic here. I needed to get my spending under tighter control so tonight I am drinking PBR instead of my usual craft brew, it is about half the price. Honesty when I was drinking the first one I thought it tasted like water, but 6 in I am actually starting to like it. This is gonna be my new go-to drink.

>> No.15706394

You clearly don't care about the taste, why even drink beer at all?

But water doesn't have alcohol, friend.

I'll still get craft beer for special occasions, but PBR is gonna by drink for a night like tonight when I am just relaxing at home by myself after a long week.

i used to be a pretty heavy alcoholic. i was drinking like 4 to 5 shots of mescal at my bartending job every day and then getting home and killing a 12 pack of stash IPAs every night. i went sober for like 2 years and then just started drinking a bottle or two of nice wine every weekend with good dinners and then working out really hard during the week and eating chicken and beans. i feel lots better anon and still get to drink.

i shifted my focus from getting fucked up and laid all the time to feeling actual pleasure by getting in shape. i also quit smoking cigarettes first and that helped a lot. once you become capable of waking up feeling refreshed and then going on like 3 mile run every morning for a week and not feeling exhausted by it, no drunken night can compare to that feeling of accomplishment and capability.

You're beta as fuck for caring about what people think of you holding a wine glass in the first place, but 1) stemless wine glasses exist, 2) you can pour your drink in whatever glass you want, and 3) if someone is buying cheap wine to get drunk, they're probably just drinking out of the bottle anyway.

Where I live Everclear is $17.98 for a fifth. At 95% ABV, that’s 2.5¢ per mL of pure alcohol. For a 30 pack of PBR, it’s $18.98. At 4.8% ABV, that’s 3.7¢ per mL of pure alcohol.

PBR costs 50% more than Everclear. Buy the everclear and drink it with water.
