Drinking Beer in the Shower Finally Pops Up on Radar’s Radar

1012_beer.jpg

Radar magazine, ever-vigilant on the culture, entertainment, and style scenes, brings its readers this bit of top serious news: Wowzers, a beer in the shower sure is refreshing, ain’t it?

Maybe it’s just the booze talking, but who the hell doesn’t occasionally drink a beer or six in the shower? Whether it’s to cool off after exercising, get a head start while preparing for a night on the town, or stave off a wicked Tuesday morning hangover before trotting into the office, a beer in the shower isn’t some eccentric practice or “secret pleasure” as Radar would have you believe—it’s a goddamned necessity in this cruel game known as life. Hell, in my dilapidated group house, we keep a separate recycling bin in the bathroom just to collect all of the empty shower beer bottles. Is this not the norm for any self-respecting 20-something group house?

    A hefeweizen is a fine shower beer!

  3. Mark Says:

    If you drink vodka in the shower it’s like brushing your teeth. Double the time savings!

  4. scott Says:

    the only thing better than drinking a cold beer in a hot shower is smoking a cigarette at the same time

  5. Mike Licht Says:

    Suggestion: use the traditional German beer stein. The stoneware will keep beer cold, the hinged lid should keep ricochets of hot water from diluting your brew, and the lid’s thumb lift is near the mug handle so you can open it with the hand that holds the stein and soap up with the other hand.

    I never tried this, but I did smoke in the shower, a bigger challenge.
