Drinking beer in one gulp is a lot of fun, you can even have a competition with your friends. To learn how to drink beer in one gulp, you need to understand a few basic principles. The throat should be relaxed to allow the beer to flow freely into the stomach. If you are drinking from a can or bottle, provide an opening to allow the liquid to flow freely from the container. We drink to the bottom!

Steps

Method 1 of 3: From a mug or glass

1. 1 Pour the beer into a glass and wait for the foam to settle. Do not drink frothy beer in one gulp, as this can cause stomach pain, gas, and nausea. Wait for the foam to settle. In addition, during this time the beer will have time to warm up a little, and you will be able to avoid a "cold" headache (it is also called a "brain freeze")!
   • How well you manage to drink beer in one gulp can be influenced by the shape of the glass. It is much easier to drink from a wide mug than from a glass narrowed upwards.

   Advice: choose a lighter beer. Although you won't get the taste of the drink, light beers will digest better in the stomach than darker, richer beers like Guinness.

   
   
2. 2 Hit the bottom of the glass on the table to release the gas. Beer contains carbon dioxide (CO₂). If you swallow gas in addition to liquid, it will cause discomfort and possibly nausea. A simple way to get rid of some of the CO₂ before drinking beer, is to knock the bottom of the glass on a table or other hard surface.
   • Don't hit the glass too hard on the table, just knock to release gas bubbles.
3. 3 Take a deep breath and tilt your head back slightly. Take a deep breath of air before sipping your beer in one gulp to prepare for the next step. Tilt your head back slightly so that the contents of the glass flow unhindered directly into your stomach. Grab the glass properly.
4. 4 Bring the glass to your mouth and tilt it quickly. After you take a deep breath and tune in, bring the glass to your mouth and put your lips on the edge of the glass. Turn the glass over in a quick motion to pour the contents into your mouth. Do not try to swallow the beer, or it may spill out of your mouth.
   • Be careful not to hit or damage your teeth with the glass.
5. 5 Relax your throat and hold your breath. Do not swallow any liquid that comes into your mouth. Instead, relax your throat and let the beer flow freely right into your stomach. Let gravity do the work for you. Hold your breath so that it does not interrupt the flow of liquid, otherwise it will slow down and the beer may spill.
   • Imagine that you are pouring water into an open hole.
6. 6 Drink the whole glass to the bottom. Don't stop half way! Keep your throat relaxed as the beer is poured from the glass into it. Tilt the glass more and more to keep the beer flowing out of it. When the beer is finished, catch your breath and enjoy the delight of the audience.
   • Beer contains a lot of CO₂, which will help get rid of a powerful burp.

Method 2 of 3: From a can

1. 1 Use a knife to cut a small hole at the top of the can to allow air to flow through. Position the knife vertically and place the tip on the top of the can next to the tongue. While doing this, firmly hold both the can and the knife. Press lightly on the jar with a knife to pierce it. Make sure that the edges of the hole are not jagged or you may cut yourself while drinking beer.
   • You can pierce the jar with a knife, key, or other sharp object.
   • The hole should be small, about the size of the tip of a pencil.

   Advice: Another way to drink beer out of a can in one gulp is the "shot from a gun" technique - a hole is made in the bottom of the can, and then it is tipped over, and the beer is poured out by gravity.

   
   
2. 2 Cover the hole with the index finger of the hand in which you are holding the can. Take the can with your dominant hand and place your index finger over the opening until you are ready to drink the beer. The hole is made so that air can freely enter the can. As a result, the beer will pour out of it easier and faster.
   • You can also take the can with your non-dominant hand, and leave the prevailing one free to greet friends during and after drinking a beer.
3. 3 Open the can and start drinking as you normally would. Open the can without removing your finger from the opening. Bring the can to your mouth and start drinking the beer as usual. The beer will flow quickly at first and will be easy for you to swallow.
4. 4 Inhale, tilt your head back and remove your finger from the hole in the can. When you're ready to gulp the beer, take a deep breath so you don't breathe for a while. Remove your finger from the hole and tip the can over to let the beer pour out freely. Raise the can higher and higher as the beer flows unhindered down your throat.
5. 5 Relax your throat and let the beer flow freely until the can is empty. Do not try to swallow beer while trying to empty the can. Instead, relax your throat and allow the beer to flow freely up your esophagus and into your stomach. Hold your breath while doing this.
   • Consider flattening the can in your hand and tossing it to the floor after you've finished drinking all the beer to impress your friends even more. Don't leave trash behind, however, and pick up the jar a little later.

Method 3 of 3: Using a straw from a bottle

1. 1 Open the bottle and wait for some gas to come out of the beer and it warms up slightly. Do not drink beer that is too cold in one gulp, or you can injure your throat and stomach. In addition, there is too much gas in freshly opened beer, which makes it difficult to drink it in one gulp and, if it enters the stomach, can cause discomfort and nausea. Let the open bottle stand for a while so that excess carbon dioxide is in the air, and not in your stomach, and the beer is slightly warmed.
   • Just a few minutes is enough - there is no need to wait for the beer to reach room temperature.
   • Do not knock the bottom of the bottle on the table to release excess CO.₂as the beer may foam and splash out of the bottle.
2. 2 Insert a flexible straw into the bottle and bend it. Air will enter the bottle through the straw, allowing the beer to flow out more quickly. The faster the beer pours out, the easier it will be for you to drink it in one gulp. In this case, the top tip of the straw should protrude from the neck of the bottle.
   • Be careful not to drop the straw in the bottle, or it will be difficult for you to reach it without spilling the beer.
3. 3 Hold the straw with the top end pointing away from your face. Place your finger on the straw and point the curved end away from you. In this case, it will not prevent you from drinking beer in one gulp. Press the bend of the straw against the neck of the bottle.
4. 4 Bring the bottle to your mouth and take a deep breath. Get ready for a gulp of beer and bring the neck of the bottle to your lips. Get determined and take a deep breath to prepare yourself and not breathe for a while while you drink your beer in one gulp.
5. 5 Tilt your head back and tip the bottle over. After you breathe in the air, lean back and sharply knock the bottle over. After that, beer will flow from the bottle. Hold the straw with your finger to allow air to enter the bottle.

   A warning: Be careful not to hit the bottle in your teeth when you knock it over!

   
   
6. 6 Let the beer flow freely down your throat until the bottle is empty. After you knock the bottle over, the beer will flow so fast that the jet will hit the back of your throat. Keep your throat open and relaxed to allow the beer to drain freely into your stomach. In this case, air entering through the straw will push the remaining liquid out of the bottle.

• Drink alcohol in moderation.
