Man spent $1,000 a week on beer?


SYDNEY (Reuters) - An Australian man convicted of his seventh drink-driving charge was spending about A$1,000 ($972) a week on beer -- enough to buy more than 2,500 small bottles a month, a newspaper said Tuesday.

Holy farking shiat batman!!!

That's about 52,000 a year. I can't fathom spending that much.

What beer could you drink for $1000 a week.

5 Bottles of Sam Adams Utopias.
66 Bottles of Dark Lord ($15 a bottle)
100 mix six's at Friar Tucks

The magistrate also poked fun at Leary's favorite beer, Melbourne Bitter, in a part of the country where drinkers can be as loyal to beer brands as they are to football teams.

Man, even counting travel costs I don't think I've spent 52k on beer in the past ... oh... LIFETIME! (even if you count the cost of my car)
