The epidemic of almost uncontrollable sneezing after having a few cold ones. Possibly a slight allergic reaction, but further study is required. A temporary cure is more drinks to numb the nasal passages.
“ man, why can’t you stop sneezing?”
“ it’s the beer sneezes, man.” “here have another one, and have a cigarette too, that’ll stop ‘em.”
“thanks man,”
*procedes to light cigarette, chug beer, and wait for sneezing to stop.
A gathering of friends on a Friday night where everyone enjoys a beer or 2. A “Friday beers” gathering must consist of good fiends, good conversations, and good beer. A beer or 2 can quickly turn into 7 or 8, but that not looked down upon by anyone at Friday beers.
Hey are you gonna come to Friday beers tonight in Fredo’s backyard?
It's the shit beer you buy at the local rink when you go watch local hockey teams get trounced by teams from Quebec.
Well, we're losing again. Better drown our sorrows with some rink beer.
Utility beer is the beer you keep around for the day-to-day moments when beer is a necessity to assist in pedestrian activities (golf, plumbing, yardwork, babysitting, staff meetings, Zoom calls). For the beer snob it is the beer you save for neighbors when they drop in at 3 p.m. on a Tuesday. It is differentiated from the actual high-end beer you save for special events, holidays, and special tastings.
Person 1: Dave, did you bring along those hazy craft IPA's so we could drink while cleaning Lyle's pool?
Person 2: Nope. I just have a bunch of utility beer that Steve dumped on me. Good enough for this. It is only 10:30 a.m.
A craft, arty, hipster overpriced self-righteous beer. Usually an IPA. Best served in a jar.
“Look at this double imperial IPA. That’s such a jar beer!”
The shredding cut just below the thumb one receives from attempting to twist-open a beer that requires a bottle opener. Beer wounds typically occur in direct proportion to how drunk the would-be consumer is.
Gary: Fuck man, what happened to your hand?
Greg: Last night I was so hammered I spent 15 minutes trying to twist-open a Hoegaarden. Turns out you need a bottle opener for those...
Gary: Well, scored yourself a grade A beer wound!
The stack of beer cans that inevitably end up in the shape of a pyramid after/during a long night of drinking. Architecture usually becomes unstable at some point and collapses.
Phil: That asshole knocked over our beer-amid! You realize we've been working on this all night, eh?
