Why don't people drink beer with a straw?
You drink a number of beverages (both alchoholic and non) with a straw, so why not beer?
Answers:
I don't drink anything with a straw. They are just trash waiting to happen. Ever do a beach clean-up. There are thousand of straws littering every where. I hope one person reads this and starts skipping on the stra in the drink. Its no more sanitary than putting the cup to you lips.
You're supposed to chug a beer, not sip it!!!!
so you can drink it faster?
or because it's a "man drink" and straws are girly?
no, seriously, i've always wondered this too!!!!!
because there is no ice in it
STRAW POWER
H. Shiroyama asked the following question in the May 13, 2000, issue of New Scientist:
I have heard it said that if you drink beer through a straw you will become intoxicated more quickly. Many of my friends have heard it too. Is it an urban myth or true and, if so, why?
Thus challenged, the magazine editor conducted an informal test using ten easily found volunteers. Only half used straws; all had plenty of free beer. The five straw-users definitely performed worse on standard sobriety tests than the glass-lifters, even though both groups consumed the same amounts of beer. One New Scientist reader commented that one can get drunk still faster by consuming beer using a spoon instead of a straw.
Ooof! It always seemed to me that drinking with a straw causes more burping, like it makes you swallow more air. As burpy as beer is, drinking it through a straw would REALLY make you burpy. Plus it would look weeny.
Did you know that if you drink beer with a straw, it gets you
drunk faster! Been there, done that. Years ago. I'm 44
now. I did that twice when I was in my early 20's.
You end up drinking more per sip. Drunker, quicker.
too much foam
I do sometimes, I guess it's just not the standard when drinking beer
Prob because drinkin alchoholic drinks through a straw will make you get drunker quicker!!!!
I have drank it with a straw. i did it after this guy that i had 'relations' with told me that it would get you drunk faster, because the carbonation goes straight to your head (or...something like that.) I found it incredibly difficult to swallow each time cuz it just tasted like foam. I didnt get too drunk either, i guess it would probably work better with a 40 or something.
Because that's gay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...
Besides, who sips beer?! Not me.
