- hakosl 11y agoEhh, every time i hear this kind og thing beer and wine seems to have switched places
- moron4hire 11y agoIt's supposed to be in order of decreasing ABV, "beer before liquor, never been sicker" is how I know it. The point being, as your inhibitions decrease, your willingness to drink things quickly increases, but lower ABV drinks--especially carbonated ones--have a functional limit on how much can be consumed in a short period of time: stomach capacity.
- RankingMember 11y agoAll of these are B.S., but for what it's worth, the one I grew up with: Beer before liquor, never been sicker Liquor before beer, you're in the clear
- smcl 11y agoWhile we're at it, the one I knew growing up was probably the most sensible advice and suggested no mixing: Grape or grain, but never the twain Where grain was probably beer (but could've also been Whisky)

O woman, the sorrow and pain is with you. And so be the joy and the victory too ; With this for your motto and succor divine : The lips that touch liquor shall never touch mine! The lips that touch liquor shall never touch mine! Sing it with me!
- smcl 11y agoOh man I wish I knew this, sadly I just know that single line!
- noxToken 11y agoTo spin a hypothesis into this as to why this is possibly true, think of beer as a walk, wine as a jog and spirits as a sprint. It will take you longer (generally!) to drink the same alcohol content from a pint of beer than it would from a shot of spirits. It can be inferred that one probably consumes alcohol at a faster rate in shot form than in pint form.
- pavel_lishin 11y agoIt probably helps that beer tends to have a higher water content than liquor.
