Tentatively.
Tentatively, and with a slight but noticeable absence of confidence, looking around a bit: "Is anybody looking at me funny? Drinking this beer? Yeah, I know it's a bit passé..."
That's how I drink beer. I drink beer like it's going out of style!

Yes, when things amuse me this much, I AM a six year old girl. What of it?
Thanks man! This one was a true story, actually.
I felt a little out-of-place at the wine bar last night (stopped in after work). I walked in, this guy I knew was there, drinking a beer, and he's like "I'll buy you a beer!" Well, it was my boss, I'm not going to try to finagle an upgrade. I was in the mood for a wine as I walked in, but I'm a beer lover and if someone's buying me a beer, thank you very much.
Also, the beer he bought me was huge! One of those 22 ounce jobs. He was having a stout, the last one of that kind, but the barkeep was like - we have this other stout, would you like to try that? I said "sure." Next I look up and I've got a glassful of stout and a HUGE BOTTLE in front of me. Cheers!
So anyway, we caught up on the non-work shite and he leaves, and I'm looking around and I'm like - the only one there with a beer. And the three people at the other end of the bar were literally reading to each other from a deck of Wine Trivia Cards. Smugly.
I drank that beer like it was going out of style. But it took me a while.
Good stout! Santa Cruz Aleworks: "Dark Night" Oatmeal Stout.
