Beer

[Usrin]

I guess the other end is Akoss Poo.

My list:

~600 l beer (~30000 ccm alcohol)
~200 l wine (70% red, 30% white; ~25000 ccm)
~25 l vermuth type drinks (martini, cherry, fruit liqeours, etc.; ~4000 ccm)
~15 l pálinka (~7500 ccm)
~ 15 l champagne (~1800 ccm)
~ 4 l Hubertus (something like Jägermeister, just better, at least for me; ~1500 ccm)
~ 3 l tequila (~1200 ccm)
~ 2 l other hard drinks (~800 ccm)
~ 2 l vodka (~800 ccm)
~ 2 l Becherovka (Friker can tell more about it, it's a delicious liqeuor with herbs - too bad I can't stand even the smell of it since that awful drunk night in 2008...; ~800 ccm)
~ 2 l rum (any kind of, except the baking version ; ~1000 ccm)
~ 1.5 l whisky (~600 ccm)
~ 1 l cognac (~400 ccm)
~ 0.2 l absinth (~150 ccm)
exactly 0.2 l "sütörum" (rum for baking, kind of shame ; 50 ccm), 0.2 l gin (terrible; 75 ccm)

SUM: ~75000 ccm pure alcohol (~60 kg; two more years and it will reach my body weight)

Neither I'm too far from my body weight, even without swallowing a single ccm of Listerine! (For me it seems impossible... it would come back in a second, together with the whole content of my stomach.)

I've made an Excel table and estimated my consumption in each year from 2000. (Well, it should be also taken with an error margin of +/- 50%.) The overall sum really surprised me.

~806 l beer (~40300 ccm alcohol)
~78.5 l wine (~9420 ccm)
~2.5 l champagne (~300 ccm)
~7.7 l pálinka (~3465 ccm)
~8.1 l bitter (Unicum, Hubertus, Becherovka, Jäger, etc.; ~3240 ccm)
~3.3 l other spirits (mostly vodka, cognac and whisky; ~1320 ccm)
+non-significant amount from alcoholic desserts and gayish drinks (vermouth, liqueur)

SUM: ~58000 ccm (ca. 46 kg).

As you can see, most of it comes from beer... The surprisingly large amount is resulted by my habit of finishing university workdays with a beer in the dormitory (between 2003-2007). Doing this 3 times a week (not counting the summer), I'm already at 60 l/year without any special events, additional beers (because one beer is not a beer), etc.

I wanted to have 3 or 4 beers yesterday with Ildi, but I fell asleep after the first one (Pilsner)...  (Un)fortunately, it happened only after the end of the Sweden-Switzerland hockey game...

Beer test today, maybe part of it would be performed yesterday:

Corona Extra, MEX, 4.6%
Modelo, MEX, 4.4%
Busch Classic, USA, 4.3%

(Budweiser, USA, 5.0% was tasted two years ago.)

Fake Budvar.

It has nothing to do with the Czech Budweiser. Just their names are the same. Btw different taste from European beers.

Budweiser was packed in 355 ml cans, the other three beers were sold in 710 ml cans/bottles (12 fl. oz and 1 pint 8 fl. oz., respectively).

Corona Extra, MEX, 4.6%
Modelo, MEX, 4.4%
Busch Classic, USA, 4.3%

(Budweiser, USA, 5.0% was tasted two years ago.)

Result of the tests:

Corona Extra 5.5/10
Modelo 6.5/10
Busch Classic 5/10
(not too characteristic taste beers, Modelo was clearly the best)

Re-test of Budweiser (USA): 5/10

Re-test of Foster's (AUS, 5.2%, 710 ml can in the USA): 6.5/10 (it has a very special and unique taste, when I drink it, its rate changes in my mouth between 3 and 9... good beer)

Test of Steel Reserve (USA, 8.1% - highest I've ever tasted, 710 ml can) 3.5/10 (it seems I don't really like beers with too high alcohol content, and US-made beers are not too good

Re-test of Warsteiner (GER, 4.8%, 330 ml cans, consumed on the plane): 8/10 (bitter and very good taste)

I tried a "mead" beverage earlier today, which is supposed to be one of the earliest style of fermented drinks.  A "honey wine".  I'd been drinking all day, changing the transmission on my Mitsubishi Starion, and took a break at the bar.  Even though I was in the drinking mood, I probably wouldn't order a mead drink again.
