Looks like 136 beers? Do you think this is a lot or not? If you divide it up equally it’s 34 a person and if they drink just Friday and Saturday for the month that’s 4 beers each night with 1 night 5 and also not considering they drink any other night of the week either. This can be as low as 2 a night several times a week which I really don’t think is bad at all.
If we are guessing that each roommate has and mostly drank their beverage of choice, then while the overall quantity isn’t too bad, the guy who likes Blue Moon may need to rethink his habits.
Correct. Probably should’ve separated them by person. Blue moons are all trevor
Trevor’s consumption pattern is relevant, but otherwise I’m more concerned about Lemmy’s need for content than y’all’s need for beer. 🤣
bruh thats 4 beers, every day, for a month. Mans built a tolerance for sure.
I count 72 Blue Moon caps. That’s 2/day if it’s all from 1 person.
I’m guessing they came up the plan when they were together kicking back and drinking blue moon together
More likely 6-7 beers split between Friday and Saturday with some random beers thrown in there.
Several of them aren’t even beer. There’s a Coca-Cola cap lol
Lots of root beer too
Yeah, I noticed this after as well. Some root beer and coke caps in this. Looks like another one may be soda, too, but I am not familiar with the name.
Yeah, if anyone thinks this is bad, they haven’t seen what legit alcoholism is like.
It would look like maybe 15 caps per person, but they’d be caps of vodka handles.
Alcoholic here: I drink about 2-4 beers a night combined with a third to half a bottle of vodka. So yeah that’s not a lot for four guys.
If you drink more than one beer a day on average, that is pretty close to alcoholsim. But of course it can be a lot worse.
I just don’t get why alcohol is so normalised, even though the health effects are adverse.
Wat. 2 beers a day won’t even get me buzzed ever. I’d get fat, but I wouldn’t even feel the effects of alcohol.
Maybe, because you’re an alcoholic?
One beer with lunch and one wer with dinner does not make anyone an alcoholic, and I would be shocked if anyone could feel buzzed off of that.
I have like two drinks a month, so I’m definitely not an alcoholic. I probably drink far less than average.
While you might not feel buzzed, drinking daily has huge effects on your body
You’re moving the goal posts. That’s a completely different conversation, and one that I’m not educated enough on to have a conversation about. The assertion was that averaging more than one beer a day makes you nearly an alcoholic, and I disagree. Having one or two beers with a meal per day doesn’t mean you are dependent on alcohol, and I think it really downplays what alcoholics go through with the mental and physical dependencies that are created.
It’s really coming across as though you’ve never drank alcohol in your life if you think one beer a day really has this big of an impact.
You’re just talking straight out of your ass now, go find a hobby. (Note that I say this as someone who doesn’t drink alcohol virtually ever.)
If they were Lager bottles, I could have done 30 on a Saturday in college. Now a 6 pack will last me a month. Yeah, that isn’t bad for 4 guys.
Yup, I’d regularly kill a 30 pack on the weekend before I retired from drinking.
136 would be a little more than 2 weeks. By myself.
Hope you can get out of it, alcohol is a bitch
There are some data missing in this study.
Did they drink all these beers? Did they have guests? Did they drink in other places where they couldn’t save the caps? Or in cans?
The only thing for sure is that OP is ready for the apocalypse.
Plot twist: only one of the 4 guys drinks, these are all his.
I see good beer… and not so good beer….
Yes, can’t go wrong with IBC Root Bear!
Seems someone in the house is a bit of a root beer connoisseur.
Hey, that might buy you one Nuka Cola
Yeah, my first thought was “how many RadAway does this guy need??”
Props to that lone wolf with the PBR.

You guys are Americans? I recognise absolutely nothing xD
Definitely. Most of these are regular US domestic and some independents.
I spy a wisconsinite
New Glarus caps, but IBC root beer instead of Sprechers?

I lived in an apartment when I was in my early 20s, and my neighbor was this old guy that had no license, so he would ask for rides to get groceries, which he sometimes did along with beer, and sometimes groceries just meant beer.
I gave him a ride several times, and he would get an insane amount of cheap beer, like five 24 packs, and some brandy. I assumed it was for the month, but then I took him twice in about a week and he got the same amount.
I talked to him as I continued to give him rides, which he was getting regularly from other people in the apartment, not just me. Turns out the dude drank 18 beers every day, plus whatever amount of brandy. 18. A DAY. I would like to see four copies of THAT guy do this. It would be like scrooge mcduck’s gold vault. He was in his 70s. No idea how he was still alive.
My group of 8 friends could do it in one evening. And before anyone asks alcoholism is running rampant in this country.
I remember a lan party where we had a 5L jar for bottle caps and we filled it in 3 days.
I am from Slovakia, center Europe, and here some would call it an embarassment. The average construction worker drinks so many beers alone. If you divide the amount (136, if not mistaken) by four, it still results in 1 beer a day and two in almost every friday.
One beer a day doesn’t seem a lot, but sure, seeing so many bottlecaps together might look disturbing.
You could get the same result with coffee cups, or with energizers, if you’d give the same request to our younglings at school.
We’re f*cked up I think.
I’m 7.5yrs sober but when I drank I could down these in a like 4-5 days just using them as a chaser for the vodka. Fuck man I don’t even know how I did that shit.
This isn’t really that concerning of an amount for that many dudes living together lol, but obviously not great.
Ah yes, the ol college wall decorations
What Victory beer? I live down the street from them.
I used to live near there too!
Amateurs
Not so much for a month! In my glory days I did 20x 500ml 7.6% beers per night (not every night, sometimes I did just 8 or so.
10L of water in one night would be an incredible feat
It was. First time I decided to go for 20 I was quite pissed and smoked 2 packs of very cheap filterless cigarettes that night. I remember waking in my friend’s living room around 12, realy dry mouth. His mom prepared some anti-hangover breakfast for us. I remember bacon and pickles. Now I would be dead after 6.
I remember crashing in a friends room after a night of hard drinking, sleeping in a reclining chair. He gets up in the middle of the night, walks over to the closet, unzips, and straight up takes the longest piss I’d ever heard to date. Right on the carpet, which makes really curious splash sounds within the first several seconds of becoming saturated.
So yeah, moving voluminous amounts of liquid through the human osmotic filtration system. I’m actually still quite surprised to this day that he didn’t piss all over himself in his sleep instead (or worse). And that was high school, I wince to think about how college went for him.

That’s some power lifter style calorie consumption. Did you eat food too?
I think I had some sausages in the pub, but most likely not much food, I had my budgets for drinks, so I was caucious with unnecessary expenses.
There’s a reason calories aren’t listed on alcohol. I could crush a 30 rack on a Saturday in college and all that did was gain me 60 pounds.
Looking for drinks where they are listed is a good rule of thumb to find drinks lower in calories than the average.
If I did my math right that’s about 8-9 beers a week. They probably didn’t drink them every day but that’s like 2 nights of moderate drinking a week.
I could have easily had that many by myself in a month my 20s.
