I was on a bus with some kids (18-19) and they had about ten slabs of beer they were taking home. Someone said something to them and they said that there was works going on in their building and the water would be off for 24 hours, so they had to have something to drink.
Where I’m at tap water isn’t potable, so I’m ordering liquids (of any kind that fit within my budget) in order to stay alive.

How much/many is a slab of beer? Never heard that expression before
24 cans/bottles
Beer cans etc are often delivered 24 to a cardboard tray, wrapped in plastic.
A slab is actually quite a good description for them.
As soon as I saw the reply, I could visualise it. Already told my friends, making it a thing in my neck of the woods as well
