Utility beer

Utility beer is the beer you keep around for the day-to-day moments when beer is a necessity to assist in pedestrian activities (golf, plumbing, yardwork, babysitting, staff meetings, Zoom calls). For the beer snob it is the beer you save for neighbors when they drop in at 3 p.m. on a Tuesday. It is differentiated from the actual high-end beer you save for special events, holidays, and special tastings.

Person 1: Dave, did you bring along those hazy craft IPA's so we could drink while cleaning Lyle's pool?
Person 2: Nope. I just have a bunch of utility beer that Steve dumped on me. Good enough for this. It is only 10:30 a.m.

Baseload beer

Pre-drinking before going out to have a "baseload" level. Beers consumed while out are "peak"

As the bar is expensive, we had a few baseload beers before we left

Beer Wound

The shredding cut just below the thumb one receives from attempting to twist-open a beer that requires a bottle opener. Beer wounds typically occur in direct proportion to how drunk the would-be consumer is.

Gary: Fuck man, what happened to your hand?

Greg: Last night I was so hammered I spent 15 minutes trying to twist-open a Hoegaarden. Turns out you need a bottle opener for those...

Gary: Well, scored yourself a grade A beer wound!

Beer-amid

The stack of beer cans that inevitably end up in the shape of a pyramid after/during a long night of drinking. Architecture usually becomes unstable at some point and collapses.

Phil: That asshole knocked over our beer-amid! You realize we've been working on this all night, eh?
