Its funny what you can find on the Internet when you just don’t feel like being productive. For instance, I Googled “Beer Drinking” today and came up with John Paul Adams’ personal beer records. This guy is great. I wouldn’t call him the best beer drinker I’ve seen, but judging by his picture, you wouldn’t expect it.
Anyway, he’s been keeping tally of his consumed beers since 1988. Not only does he have a list of different types he’s drank, but he’s got monthly tallies of total consumption. It appears that JPA’s alcoholism has really picked up since ‘88. Back in the day he was only taking down about 40 a month. But in December of ‘02 he set a personal best of 162.5 beers. That’s an average of 5 a night, or if you’re the type that only drinks when going out, a nightly average of nearly 14 beers if you drank every Thursday, Friday, Saturday. I tip my hat to you John Paul.
In a true Tastybooze honoring of this guy, I propose a gentleman’s contest. Keep track of the number of beers you drank for the month of June. Tally each night as accurately as possible. I expect some 200 months coming in… but will anyone pass 300?

My only problem with this guy is that he drinks half beers, what’s up with that. They damn well better have been half beers that bouncers tore out of his hands before kicking his ass out of the bar at closing time.
maybe he drinks 40’s and counts them as 3.5 beers?
