Simple Pleasures: The Shower Beer

Ever had one? Lemme tell you, there is nothing better on a brutally hot day (especially if you've had a rehearsal in a non-air conditioned warehouse or been out mowing the lawn or playing golf) than to take a tepid shower with an ice cold beer in hand.

I first encountered the shower beer in the movie Bull Durham. Kevin Costner's just been released from the team and retires to the showers with a beer (or several). I thought, "Damn - I gotta try that sometime!"

So have you? Ever had a shower beer?

No. neutral

I have also done wine in the bath. It is not the same thing. We are not trying to get all warm, romantic and "Calgon take me away" here.

The shower beer is about chilling - cooling off, inside and out.

I guess you'd have to somehow keep it out of the spraying water? I don't think I'd appreciate diluted beer.

Don't overthink it. The point is that you are so hot and tired that a little water in the beer doesn't matter.

It is a gift from the gods. nod

When I'm doing a play, I almost always hang out with the guys in the cast. (I have no idea why, I just do.) One night at rehearsal, we were all sitting around going, "Shower beer... drool "

It was hilarious.

No. That is too cocktail-ish. Plus, tomato juice is thick and doesn't just flow down your gullet like beer. disbelief

I've never had a beer in the shower. I've placed a Tanqueray and tonic on the sink, though, so it's readily accessible.

I imagine the alcohol makes you forget that you're marinating in a pool of your own filth.

I'm not a germphobe like you.

Exactly what kind of filth does your body ooze that you cannot stand to be in it?? neutral

I don't do it after mud-wrestling or anything.
