Extremely specialized case, but the “thank fuck I’m done with that booze-free 28-day tug boat hitch” beer slaps like forbidden love.
From what I understand.
Summit beer.
Nothing like climbing a mountain and cracking open a warm one on the top.
There's a direct correlation between altitude and improvement of taste.
Feierabendbier!
That's what happens en-masse in Germany in the early havening.
Everyone goes to a corner shop to buy a bottle of cold beer, enters the metro train, opens the beer bottle and drinks it in the metro on the way home.
If this really is a thing, I'm moving to Germany tomorrow
It is, in some places and to some extent.
Until year 2009, the Berlin transportation's rules said "Disturbing use of alcohol is prohibited in public transportation." ...meaning that non-diaturbing use was allowed. The new rule dropped the word "Disturbing", meaning that the procedure is now no longer allowed.
But, the last time I was in Berlin, a few years ago, I was relieved to see that the tradition still lives on. I bet there are cities where it's still outright allowed to this day! But even where it isn't, it's still being done.
Plus, people do drink their Feierabendbier in parks and benches. And often simply first thing after coming home. But Feierabendbier, the concept of drinking a bottle of beer ASAP after the end of your working day, is still alive and kicking indeed!
"It's Friday, 17:00, you are working from home"
80 MPH beer
Shower beer
This is a good one. Used to work 12h night shifts and that 9:30 am shower beer was heavenly.
Funny story: When I was in college, my friends and I went on a ski trip over spring break. Being broke college students, we stayed at someone in the group's brother's apartment, who lived there. It was jam-packed, with 8 of us on the living room floor in sleeping bags. We were all heavy drinkers (college) and did a power hour after the slopes closed on one of the days. For anyone who doesn't know, a power hour is one shot of beer every minute for an hour. It adds up to 90 Oz or 7.5 cans of beer over an hour. Since we were all sweaty from skiing, and there was only 1 shower, everyone was taking turns with the shower beers to keep up with the power hour. I puked right after finishing. Good times.
At first I read "bear."
Here's one.
- The beer you have before/during/after doing an ordinary thing in a day, because you don't want to admit that you are or are becoming addicted to alcohol.
The beer after reading unnecessarily pessimistic comments on social media
No I'm isn't
I drink two beers before I drink two beers, and then I drink two more
¼oz to freedom
I got one! The "it's Thursday which is basically Friday so it's totally cool and normal to have a 6 pack" beer.
The "Just finished setting up the tent and campsite" beer
Especially after waiting in line for a festival campsite
Ah, the good ol' Step 2.
See also: just got to the campsite and about to build it but gonna cool off with this beer first
The sleeper - the beer that you've never heard of, has a shitty label, but tastes like the nectar of the gods. You will never see it again, but will think about it for weeks
Lagunitas Aunt Sally. a beer that I had exactly once, was maybe my favorite ever, and I tried for two years to find again before learning it was a seasonal that's been discontinued
I also miss that beer that had dragon somewhere in the name that I could never find again.
Dragon's Milk, maybe? It's one of my favorites.
That's it and their website lists where I can buy it nearby. Apparently they carry it in stores I didn't check.
Thank you!
The "my favorite sportball team is playing" beer.
River or lake beer. Beer that has been in an ice chest for a few hours and you enjoy while tubing, kayaking, swimming, motor boating, etc. on a river or lake.
It is important to note that this is NOT the same as a beach beer OR fishing beer; which are similar, but distinctly different beers for reasons I can't fully explain.
bonus points if it's thrown to you from the boat/dock
The first beer of a planned giant session where everyonein a friend group is meeting up for a fun weekend together, usually in a different place, maybe around a purpose like see a game.
The "post afternoon nap in warm weather shower beer"
That, "I just told my boss I'm quitting" beer
The first Friday beer after a long work-week
Having one of those now. It’s glorious.
How about the first Friday beer after another long week of unemployment? 🙃
I am also enjoying this beer. Hang in there. Yours will come.
the "I'm working 3rd shift and living at home to make ends meet, so here I am drinking a beer at 7 am as my dad sits next to me eating breakfast before work" beer.
The "it's been too long since we've got together, we just sat down and your friend is going to explain the rules to this game" beer
And, since it is the season
"First beer of the season on opening day at the Ballpark" beer
The free "bartender accidentally poured a mistake" beer.
6 o'clock on the porch watching everyone else go to school and work because you got off work at 4 a.m. and are just getting settled down beer.
Post exercise, run, playing a sport beer.
When we play a live music show and have that first beer after walking off stage. We play smaller bars so it’s not an arena or anything but wow does it always hit the hardest.
The "I've just spent 14 days in the bush digging holes and staying in a dry camp" beer hits like a fucking freight train. You're exhausted, been craving beer for weeks, and your muscles ache. It's consumed after a hot shower, a shave, and some scrubbing to try and get the dirt out of the fold of your neck. It's all that is cold (but also warming!) bubbly goodness
The “I gotta work early tomorrow but fuck it” Beer
The "It's hot, I'm thirsty and should drink water but there's only beer available" beer.
This is very particular to me but the 3-4am just finished writing for 8 hours beer.
The "I'm the first at the pub and waiting for everyone else beer."
