A New way of drinking?

bobsbeer · May 6, 2013

I'm not sure how long humans have been drinking alcohol for social purposes, but it's probably safe to say 1000's of years. So we now have a new way of getting our alcohol fix. Have a read of THIS. But to be honest I can't see people carrying the suitcase sized unit around. :lol: :lol: Give me a pint instead. Call me old fashioned but I like the taste and social aspect of actually drinking alcohol.

Bollocks to that, rather have a load of ale and a couple of shorts than a couple of tugs on some silly pump, god knows how thats enjoyable.

The " beautiful people " will sniff owt these days.....

I'm getting a nice pewter Tankard for Fathers Day this year, I'll sup from that not sniff.

What a ludicrous idea! Although there is a lot of people who drink purely to get pissed, this does seem a quick and easy way to achieve this...but seriously it is clearly no substitute for a decent pint...or twelve :lol:

It's only a step up from the gas chamber shots that have been round for ages, not too surprising someone made the leap. So saying it seems a bit daft to me.

Friends of mine once poured vodka on a spoon, lit it and "chased" the fumes, apparently they all blacked out.

Then when I was working as a barman two guys came in one afternoon, ordered two tequilas and snorted them. They had been on a massive bender all night allegedly, I barred them for being fools...
