Sorry, I'm Canadian ..sorry...
I'm sporadic in my drinking. Some weeks, its one-a-night. Other weeks I'll go dry all week. Mix in the occasional work-night-boozathon. Usually a few afternooners during football on sundays....

I used to drink 3-4 times a week, haven't touched the sauce in about 6 months now though. Every now and then I get a hankering for a good IPA but usually I pass.

being related to someone in the booze business means i drink a lot. nothing like having tasted 100s of wines by noon on a sunday. even if i use the spit bucket, i can feel the effects. it is kind of amazing how much alcohol your mouth absorbs.

aside from tasting, we usually drink a beer or three each before dinner, a bottle of wine with dinner and sometimes a bit of Obstler after dinner. we dont discriminate between weekends and weekdays.

For the 5 years I was in college, with the exception of about 3 months one summer when I found jesus, I was probably good for at least 30 beers a week. If I didn't ride so much I probably would have cut back on my drinking cause I would have been fat but the beer and riding created a nice equilibrium. Now that I'm out in the "real world" I'd say I'm good for 5 or 6 a week.

My tolerance was pretty great for most of my 20's...could go out and have a 12-pack no problem at all the next day. Since the job became 12 hour days 6 days a week, I don't have time to drink heavily, just a beer or two a day--and man do I want that beer when I come home. Last time I tried to get rowdy like "old times" I was sick as stink and hungover as hell the next day... Honestly, it made me sad that I can't hang anymore. Probably for the best though.

I haven't touched that crap since july 10 1981. Don't miss drinking at all
i haven't touched that crap since june 30 2006. :D

not as impressive as your mileage, but great for my standards.

before: wasted 2-3x/week, all week-ends as wasted as Steve Peat after winning the worlds!

Depends on the week, but I'll have a glass of wine with dinner a few times a week and I might have a little bourbon night cap other nights. On weekends, beer is a fair assumption and I don't count. Last time I was drunk was MF...duct tape pint glass ring a bell ;)

3 Black Butte Porters watching the Beavers suck in the Civil War. A good game overall and I hope Oregon beasts the piss out of Ohio State. I know it's unlikely, but I will still hope.

Good game.

I usually dont drink at all during the week. Sometimes have some whiskey, not enough for drunkenness. I do attend the occasional $1 pint night here in chico. Get sloshed for about 6 bucks.

Generally only 1-2 when I drink and only on weekends unless I am travelling on business. Then it works out to almost every night because I am either with customers or bored.

1-2 beers a night. Weekends depends if I am in town (ie not riding or backpacking). If I am with my family 2-3 beers for fun. Inlaws 6-12 to make the pain go away.

Not as much as people on here think I do.

I enjoy a cold beer in the sun every now and then, some fine wine with dinner every now and then.

Depends on the season. Summer I booze almost every night bc friends are always coming into town for vacation. Winter I booze for sports and weekends.
