King of beers is a drinking game involving a large cup in the middle of a table and a deck of cards. Once shuffled, the cards are spread in a circle around the "King's Cup", and each player takes turns pulling a card.

Each card corresponds to a different rule. Pull a 2, and you point at someone else to make them drink - 2 is You. Pull a 3, you have to take a drink - 3 is Me. 4 is Whores, meaning ladies drink, 6 is Dicks, meaning guys drink. Ace is waterfall, where everyone has to chug to the best of their abilities, and there's a slew of horseshit around one person starting and creating a chain or whatever but imo it's better if everyone just chugs hard.

It's called King of Beers because whenever you pull a king, you have to tip some of your drink into the central cup. And whoever pulls the fourth and final king has to drink whatever unholy concoction that has accrued over the course of the game.

Some people call it King's Cup, which makes more sense, but fuck that. It's king of beers.

Also Cooper's is the best beer brand fuck you all

I've played a game like that years ago but it wasn't called that. I can't even remember what it was called.

I was never big into drinking games.

Sounds very similar to a game wed play back when I was in college called Circle of Death. Except the rules were different for the various cards, and we didnt have the middle cup thing (although that sounds fun).

Numbered cards = If you draw a red card, you drink the number of the card. If you draw a black card, you tell someone to drink that number.

Jack = Thumb rule. If you had the current Jack, then if you put your thumb on the lip of your cup/can/bottle, then all other players would need to do so. Last player to do it would need to take a drink. You could abuse the hell outta this if you wanted, but if you did, youd likely get drinks directed at you from other peoples black numbered cards. You lose this power once someone else draws the next Jack.

Queen = Question Rule. If you had the current Queen, then if you asked someone a question and they answered it, theyd need to take a drink. If they responded with Fuck you, then you take a drink. People would try to be nonchalant about it, with simple stuff like Whose turn is it? or Hey, while youre getting up, could you grab me a drink? You lose this power once someone else draws a Queen.

King = Waterfall. Everyone starts chugging. You cannot stop chugging until the person to your right stops chugging, starting with whoever drew the King (so that person initially dictates the pace of the waterfall). Whoever is sitting to the left of the person who drew the King then essentially needs to keep chugging until everyone else has stopped.

Ace = Make a rule. This stays in effect for the rest of the game. It would be usually be something like If you say the name of someone in this game, take a drink, or Black numbered cards have double values.

We did that but with a can. When you pull a card you stick it under the cans tab. Whoever pops the tab with a card chugs it. What's even the point of the king thing? There's only four kings. The loser has to drink four sips of beer?

Circle of Death/Ring of Fire were both other names I heard for ultimately the same game. Do think Ring of Fire was the more common one I heard, but my friend group called it King's Cup.

You fill up a 1/4 of the pint with whatever your beverage is, so you can potentially get a pint of some horrible mix of spirits, wine and beer.

You pour in more than just a sip. Maybe about half of the drink.

We did the same thing with dice and everybody having their own cup. It literally translates to Threeman as every time a three is thrown that person becomes the Threeman and has to drink each and every throw.

I've even made that joke before about how I take drinking seriously and it isn't a game.

I actually just got a bunch of dice with some cards I bought for king of beers. I'll have to keep threeman in mind.

Beer is prolly the most polarizing drink ever.
Your favorite beer that you state is number 1 will often be someone else's most despised and vice versa.

I knew you were pretty light hearted about it but on reflection I also agree that its still not cool to post things like that because there could be other people who are struggling or whose drinking habit makes them feel ashamed and I wouldnt want to contribute to making them feel judged. Having gone through a ton of battles with addiction myself, I do need to stay mindful that its not always apparent how a person views their self in relation to that struggle.

Im grateful that were cool but Im gonna really make an effort not to post things that shame individuals who have an addiction.

I played it a few times nearly 2 decades ago and I'm not all too clear about the rules we used. When looking it up, I got these rules. I do remember we had things like "Roll a 5, the player to your left drinks" and "Roll a 6, player to right drinks"

Threeman rules:

Play with 2 dice and at least 2 people. Drinking is done in sips.

  • If someone rolls the combination 1 & 2 that person becomes the threeman. Every time one of the 2 dice shows a 3, that person has to drink no matter who's turn it is. If someone else rolls a 1 & 2 they are now the threeman.
  • Double: Any time a double is rolled, that person can choose how to divide that number of sips among the players. Let's say you roll 2 fives, then you can divide 5 sips among the others however you want. Even having 1 person do all 5.
  • If the 2 dice total to 8: make up a rule. Your imagination is the limit. We'd usually do things like "spin around before taking a sip" or "if 7 is the total, players on either side have to take a sip". If a player breaks or forgets a rule, they have to take a sip.
  • If the 2 dice total to 11: You can abolish one of the made up rules
  • Every time a player is handed the dice, they have to take a sip
