My mate got drunk after 3 sips of Fosters

[Hazza]

This is entirely true, heard of MANY cases of people drinking non-alcoholic beer and getting "drunk" having not been told it wasn't real beer

Pretty much half of any physical state is psychological

Thanks for confirming

my mate has something wrong, one can of carlsberg and hes pissed, we were in cinema and my mate brought some cans, he had one and had a piss in back corner of cinema, very funny

Fosters used to be all I drank but I dunno why cos I think its rank now. Guinness ftw

[Sly]

There is this lad I know who aparently gets 'pissed' off WKD.
I've seen pics of him where he's aparently been 'pissed' and he'd been sharin' a 2 litre bottle of wkd with 3 other people LOL.

Fosters is rank and that is why he felt ill

Fosters is NOT rank

[FlyingJesus]

Fosters is so bad they don't even drink it in Australia (true story, there's like hardly any bars outside of Queensland that have it)

[Robbie]

Lol, I know. They're all Victoria Bitter and Castlemaine drinkers over there

and 'Think Austrailian, Drink Austrailian!' ... 'Brewed in the UK.' :rolleyes:

Yeah similar experiments have been done with pills; where a group of people is given some sort of drug and another is given placebos but they all act as if they've taken the drug because that's what they've been told they took.

At a party, one of my mates gave another one of my mates some hay-fever tablets and told him they were Es so he took them and started acting off his head LMAO. Was gutted I missed that party though.

[Decapitated]

I hate it when people think there drunk after a bottle of wkd, it's impossible.

It was well funny. We were chillin' and chattin' in a mates lounge and Tom said "who wants a Fosters?" Andy (the weakling in alcohol consumption) said "na" but we were like... "yeah" so first sip he pulls a face which cant be described, it was helerious, like, omg, wth is this? And then after a further 2 went home co's he felt ill. Lol much? You got any mates like this?

Moved by Hecktix (Forum Moderator) from 'Discuss Anything' as it is better suited here.

It sounds to me as though your friend drank some of this beer partly because of peer pressure. He'd already said no as you stated and after some goading from his friends, gave in and had some. He probably wasn't used to the taste and if you were all laughing at him he probably felt like a bit of a fool and wanted to leave.
Nobody gets drunk from three sips of beer.
