Also only known well after the fact: the last one …
☠️ My dad can't drink anymore and I already don't remember our last beer together.
The "I'm not an alcoholic, you're the alcoholic" beer.
Edit. Spelling
Similar to their concept of the post-yardwork, let me introduce "the 'miring", the beer you have after completing some DIY project, drunk in silent contemplation of the result.
Partner: "All done love?" Me: "Yep, just having a 'miring. Be with you in a minute."
The "This group of friends are all moving to different areas of the country and we may never all get together again" beer
I don't think I've seen this one specifically, the I've partied all night taking substances and waited till the liquor stores opened to buy beer, for the rest of the day partying.
Only done that one a few times but it's a damn good beer. Mean unless you just want more substances, sometimes but to be honest that's the first good beer I ever had was that beer. I never enjoyed it much before that time. Was a corona of all things heh but been up for over a day so whatever.
More of a honey lager type overall or a good stout, which I have trouble finding beyond Guiness but still got many small breweries to check out. Not that I don't like Guiness but there must be something similar that's not Guiness. Just enjoy new tastes, often more than I enjoy the actual taste heh.
The post beer beer
Friday afternoon, right after work, with no plans for the weekend.
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.
Just took the dog for a walk beer
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.
Shower beer
This is a good one. Used to work 12h night shifts and that 9:30 am shower beer was heavenly.
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!
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
I'll adopt your word for a different definition: a beer from a non working refrigerator, cooled in the near freezing river. God damn Kyiv, it was 18c today and you still haven't turned on the fridges in the (beach) produktis?
Anyways, that beer was nice
"It's Friday, 17:00, you are working from home"
It's Wednesday, 14:00 and you're in the office today so beer is free
It's Thursday, 9:00 and you're home cause you're still unemployed.
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 "six months of sobriety" beer.
Wait...
The beer after reading unnecessarily pessimistic comments on social media
No I'm isn't
What about the "I'm totally going to stop drinking, at least for a little while.... tomorrow" beer?
I drink two beers before I drink two beers, and then I drink two more
The "Just finished setting up the tent and campsite" beer
Ah, the good ol' Step 2.
Especially after waiting in line for a festival campsite
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!
80 MPH beer
The "post afternoon nap in warm weather shower beer"
The "my favorite sportball team is playing" 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.
The free "bartender accidentally poured a mistake" beer.
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.
I love the weirdness of working overnight shifts. Get home at 0730, and it's like your 10pm while everyone else is just waking up. Then you have the opposite when you wake up and have to eat dinner immediately.
