I was told in my youth that it doesn’t matter what you’re drinking the last few mouthfuls are Reschs.

Why didn't you just neck the last half and leave the bar with your dignity intact? There are thirsty children in Glasgow, who'd kill for that last half of your beer!!

Surely the first one goes down fast and it's the second half of the second one you'd be abandoning. Either that or drink the bottom half first.

If the second half of your beer becomes tepid you are drinking your beer to slowly!

Drink stouts, especially a complex RIS. As it warms the flavours come out and it's good to the last drop.

In my youth the flat, unsavory remnants of that awesome beer served as an ashtray, to serve as a vomit trap for the unwary.

It’s one of those unrealistic things you see in movies often, like the actors always getting a car park out the front, and they also often exit bars leaving half full drinks behind. I’m sorry, but no.

If you need a stubbie cooler you're drinking too slow! I agree with the first half being pure joy however the second half can back up that satisfaction to finish the glow!

The second half of sex isn't worth having either. Mm warm fluid something something. The premise is the same though.
