BTW, if a bar around here did this during football season and let you eat peanuts and drink water during the session, I'd put them out of business.

meh, after about 3-4 pints, I'd ask him to hold it for me... see how long that rule is enforced

He can't drink any water during this. Drinking after the fact is great, but on a marathon, it's much better to drink some throughout too.He's either going to go very long time without water or be very drunk when he's finished. Likely both. Decent chance he passes out before getting hydrated enough to avoid hangover.

Cocoa Beach is odd - they don't seem to give a rat's ### about potential liability. A bar two doors down from this one charges $7.50 for as many jello shots as you can eat all night. I can literally eat 100 of those.

Cool. I could never win the chugs myself--guess I'm a marthoner and not a sprinter. Do drink too much, mostly beer, pretty constantly.I could do that. I'm no stranger to this, my brother has a list of records written on his garage wall - 12 oz can chug, 12 oz shotgun, 12 oz spit can chug, 16 oz can chug, 12 oz bottle chug, 12 oz funnel, etc. I hold a few myself (12 oz shotgun - 2.04 seconds, 12 oz bottle chug - 4.81 seconds, 12 oz funnel - 1.66 seconds) but I'm not sure that's the play when you have to go through 256 ounces. That might be a bit much for me to "blast through."Eight....Hours????'Evilgrin 72 said:That's not even a contest, imo--but maybe I'm just used to associating with professionals 'round hyere. Go with a light beer--thinking pilsner though I might be biased because the way I drink 'em like water they go down real easy for me. I can easily down that amount during a good party, and frequently do so on a weekend day if I'm outside mowing or bonfire or such.
Only time I ever had a beer drinking contest was years ago with a friend of mine, in a local Chapel Hill bar. We decided to have a competition to see who could drink a large size (64oz?) pitcher fastest--and it had to be done inside 5 minutes. Loser pays. So we took a booth and ordered two without glasses for practice. Neither of us beat the 5 minute mark but both were done before 6. We ordered another couple pitchers and went after it. I won; he finished his at about the 5:10 mark.
Then we ordered a third pair of pitchers to celebrate, and pretty much nursed tnem over tne next 30-45 minutes! Weren't there much more than an hour.
Maybe that's the ticket--shoot 'em down before you realize you're smashed, and have a designated driver.

I say the towel would be chucked onto the bar by 4:30.not sure given the conditions here, but I think I could as long as I paced myself.show up at noon and you have until 2am to finish?drink 2 per hour for the first 5 hours and you've got 10 done. maybe take a break for an hour or two to sober up a bit. then cruise through the rest at 1 per hour and you're golden.Curious if you can drink 16 pints of Guinnessit's 21 12oz beers. how does anyone fail at this?

I wonder how much alcohol is in each of their Jello shots. I might be game for this as well. At least 75 of them, that's a nice round number since it breaks down to $0.10 each.there's your next challenge!

Really only takes remembering it. I've had one serious hangover in my life--though I've woken up the next morning feeling kinda punky a number of times--and that was in 1970. Then a doctor told me about this trick, and it's so ingrained that I'm always drinking that before-bed glass even if I'm only semi concious.

Good luck. You guys are making a plan while sober that you have no shot of adhering to once you get a few pints in. 9 pints of Guinness is never child's play. Just pick Guinness so I can try to guess the exact time you vomit. We can do a pool.9 pints of Guinness in 4 1/2 hours?

Last weekend I drank 6 pints of Guinness in less than 2 hours, just casually knocking them back. I really don't think I would have had much of an issue getting through another 3 in 2 1/2 more hours. Not busting balls here, just saying - I don't find Guinness difficult to drink en masse at all.Good luck.

No fear, it's my go-to at the local. I just know my limits with the stuff. 10 pints of Guinness and 10 pints of Bud light are completely different animals.

but Guinness is a stout.Lager is light, cool, and very refreshing. Can drink a ton.

Sorry--my bad. I find them filling as well, and Guinness for sure. Like them but it's a sipping beer for me and generally only one before swithing over.

If they have Guinness, I'll mix some in, sure. I don't really want to drink 16 Guinness though. After 6, I'd had about enough of the flavor. If you're saying I couldn't possibly drink a Guinness every half hour for longer than 4 1/2 hours, though... you're just wrong there. I've done it before - our limits may not be the same.Go for it.Last weekend I drank 6 pints of Guinness in less than 2 hours, just casually knocking them back.

I don't think I want to do this if they do allow it... I won't really enjoy them as much.
drink a good beer of choice for the first 8 or so, then switch to something easy to reach the finish line without getting too shammered.
Nipsey
Footballguy
My limits are pretty up there and I'm not saying drinking 9 pints of Guinness in 4 1/2 hours is impossible. I'm saying you're planning all of this strategy out with no Guinness in your belly. Once that stuff touches your lips best of luck with the plans. And there's a big difference between 16 pints of Guinness and 9 pints. You're gonna hit a wall.
Evilgrin 72

That's a good plan, the only problem is if I spend the first few hours drinking Stone and then switch to Bud Light... ugh. Maybe I'll switch to Magic Hat for the home stretch.

On the whole Guinness subject, I can put away an 8-pack of the 14.9oz cans with little-to-no difficulty on a given friday evening. Putting away 17 of those cans? I just don't know. That stuff just creeps up on me big time. Of course, I usually do it in about 3 hours...given all day, I could POSSIBLY handle it. In my younger days? No problem... 
have a pizza delivered so you can eat as soon as you pound that last brew.

I'm with you here. I like mine really cold and fresh, and can pound 'em. Generally drink cheaper brands because like I said earlier I drink them like water. I'm also frequently working around the house though and that way if they do happen to get warm before I finish one I don't feel so bad about tossing it for fresh!!

but an experienced drinker like EG should be able to do this anytime he wants. he doesn't need charcoal tablets or the most watered down beer there is.I can't do this. :shurg:it's 21 12oz beers. how does anyone fail at this?
That was quite over the top.I agree with you though. If you're experienced, the only way this is hard is if you have a hellacious hangover from the previous night and don't properly rehydrate yourself before starting the challenge and/or you're a regular smoker and can't have a smoke due to the no going outside clause.

Make sure you sleep in your hypobaric chamber for a few days before the endeavor.

Just got off the phone with a hardcore Guinness drinker and this was his take:
"The thing about Guinness is that it's thickness makes it harder to move through your body. So you can pound a couple of pints and feel little effect, but suddenly after about pint 6 or 7, the concoction has now invaded your intestines and it's there where the alcohol begins to seep at great pace through your organs and into the bloodstream. Any Guinness drinker will tell you they've had an experience where one minute everything was swell and all of a sudden you realize your night is all but over. 16 pints worth of thickness seeping through the large and small intestine and you're looking at some serious and lasting effects. I'd bet good money that the morning after drinking a ton of Guinness, compared to less heavy beers, your BAC is going to be higher because the alcohol is still being released from the nitrogen/barley mixture into and through your colon."

This is my take as well. I don't see the fun in spending all night at a bar forcing yourself to drink 16 crappy beers just to get them for free. Different strokes, I suppose.

this is a great thread and all, but in all seriousness- we are talking about one longish day of moderately heavy beer drinking..just pace yourself.. let's not make it seem like the dude is training to go to Mars or something. Its only beer!! enjoy them, and wink at the owner of the bar after every delicious pint is gone!!

If you're going to worry about carbonation, I suggest going with Newcastle Brown Ale if it's available.Seems to have a very low carbonation and the ABV isn't too out of hand at 4.7%

I like Newcastle too. Will throw one or two of those in there if they're available.
