Some people I know still drink beer for breakfast, sad but true.

Often times while cycling (pushbike) around, I'll see these poor old lonely guys, sitting by themselves on a barstool, nursing a beer at 9:00 a.m. I tried drinking a beer for breakfast one time and it SO destroyed the day.

    I love them both, but I'm truly and happily ADDICTED to coffee. Not to beer or any other alcohol.

  • I'd have to give up coffee. I love beer so much I now even shower with the stuff...

maybe the beer is their only friend .... and maybe they have the Thai gf back in the room but they just like to get out and be by themselves for an hour or so ....   maybe they want to drink because the gf talks too much all day.

Try a few cans of Tapper beer. Only 51 baht a can. Brewed in Thailand but as close to Speckled Hen or Old Thumper as you will get from a Thai brewer.

Where do you buy it? 

Easy to give up coffee for me I dont like it anyway. I would not mind giving up either. But at least beer is drinkable where i think coffee just tastes so bad i never ever want to drink it again.

 

I know im an outlier here, to wake up i just take a caffeine tablet works just as well.

I am no expert in alcohol,  but if you drink beer everyday, does that not mean there is a drinking problem there, although not necessary an alcoholic?

I drink milk, tea, and squash every day, but I can go any length of time without them.

Not really in my book of life it means I like a couple of beers, like I've always done since I was 14.

I also liked to drink cider from an earlier age.

As a baby I liked Guinness with my milk. 

If that labels me as an alcoholic Amen.

I can stop anytime if I have to and have done so many a time.

As said before I drink tea, water, I also have yogurt milk with muesli every other day at breakfast.

Not that I decline to state - but I already don’t drink either.

Water is not that healthy either. Fish s..t in it. 55555555

Since I don't drink coffee, and have never been a coffee drinker, I can easily give up coffee and keep my beer!

I don't touch either, the reason is I hate the smell of both of them, my way of thinking is if anything smells bad, it is bound to taste bad.

I have the same opinion on cheese, which to me tastes like it smells - i.e. of fetid feet.

That's true, I won't eat cheese because I don't like the smell.

I really love coffee. I don't drink any alcohol, but coffee is my real addiction. I love coffee with syrups, and usually brew beans with different flavors. I have many beans and keep it in canisters like here, so it is comfortable. At first I drank coffee in cafes, but now I make it at home for the whole family. 

I found just last night that coffee before bedtime with a slop of honey in is quite delightful. No sugar just a dollop of honey.

????I voted coffee as I can drink tea instead. What replaces beer had I voted that way?

Wrong!

 

Nor wine nor Gin etc. Beer is not a spirit.
