6 beers an hour? Child's play. Kid's stuff. Little leagues. Batting practice. We drink 6 beers an hour just to keep our tongues from puffing up too much from the 'fire bombs' (light the hard liquor shot glass on fire and gulp).
I pray to myself here: "Dear Lord, let them only force 6 beers on me an hour!"
 
{EDITED} By the way, I should note that I absolutely CAN'T STAND this kind of drinking. The way it works is somebody hands you an empty shot glass, pours you a drink ... and you down it in a sign of accepting his (or her) friendship. Now, of course you should return the favor, right? In turn, THAT favor might be returned. In groups of 5 or 6 or more, you do the math.
On top of that, the group leader will usually start some kind of round-robin drinking. The guy on the left pours to the guy on the right, pass the bottle, make some speeches all around. Change venues. Start again.
These days when I'm not in the mood, I do the first few rounds as normal when everybody is sober. Then as they get drunk, I find creative ways to throw out or dilute my drinks. Once in a great while I get caught and have to drink twice the amount as 'punishment.'
Yes, these are grown men doing these things. Not college students. It's like a never-ending after-work frat party when these guys get together, and it ain't always fun. In fact, we had a new hire (a woman) go back to her place, fall down the stairs and break her nose / twist her ankle.
She quit the next morning (via phone call).
Forced drinking sucks!

Here's some nice 35% stuff Koreans use to make their own 'fruit wine.' The ad says: "If you like it strong, you can just have Bobae 35% PET straight from the bottle!" Mmmm, yeah! 
Mix that with the 40% hard liquor shots, the 25% so-ju shots AND the ~6% beers in between....I'm telling you, man, it gets ugly here. I can drink my old college buddies under the table now.
Of course, when they see me, they say: "Jesus! What happened to you out there!" Not a good tradeoff all things considered. 
Sorry: Here's one more. These Koreans are CRAZY, dammit!
quote:
YetHyang 41% (Ceramics) has already been recognized for its excellent flavor at important gatherings such as high-ranking-official meetings between South and North Korea. To make it available to more people, we also developed YetHyang 35% (Glass), and YetHyang 41% (Rice). Catching drops directly from distillation tower as if to collect dews is how YetHyang is made. It is a super premium liquor that is soft and pleasant to mouth, and promises hangover-less morning the next day. |
