Does anybody else have this problem?

You drink beer... and after maybe a couple of em, your nose stuffs up.
After about 5 beers it feels like you have the flu and your nose is literally dripping.

It drives me nuts. I'm sitting here trying to drink beer and every 5 minutes I have to blow my nose or I get snozzle dripping down my face.
I can't breathe and I feel like I've got a massive cold.

Like... am I alergic to beer or something or doesn't happen to everybody?

sounds like an allergic reaction to hops...I presume a rum and coke does not have the same effect??

I get a seriously stuffed nose.... like a major flu that feels like I'm gonna suffocate. I used to be able to get rid of it by driniking honey lager but tonight I ended up with major stuffed nose again.

This kinda sucks the big one.

Hmm. Never heard of that before. Possible allergies I would guess.

No, the only weird encounter that happens to me with beer is waking up the next morning in a strange house, minus pants and wearing a strange hat. That's happened more than once. :D

What kind of beer were you drinking? Does it happen with all beer, or just certain ones? Sounds like an allergy to me. Are you doing anything else that you only do when you drink? Just wondering if it might be a cause from something other than the beer.


LMFAO @ Hunter!

Beer, or alcohol in general usually has the opposite effect :D . I agree, with the other guys, sounds like an allergy. How many times has this happened before? With the same beer?

It always used to happen to labats and canadian so I started buying honey lager and it went away. Now I'm getting it with that too.
It sucks the big bean cause I can't breathe properly.

And 'drink' goes very well with 'often' and 'responsibly'. :)

yeah...I've given up on beer. I bought a 12 pack a month ago and it's still sitting in my fridge.
I literally hate the taste of alcohol.
I don't know how anybody can drink the stuff for pleasure.

It's like downing gasoline or poison or something.

I get sick as a dog the next day and a week later I get a massive headache.

I wish somebody would invent an alcohol pill or something.
Like seriously, the only reason I drink at all is to get a buzz so why doesn't somebody invent a capsule you can take instead of having to suffer through drinking horrible beers.

You take a few pills and voila, you get a buzz.

I'm serious... I literally hate alcohol. It's like gasoline.
The only reason I drink is to get a buzz once a month or so... and the only reason I can handle it then is cause I get a prescription of Xanax and Tylenol 3.
I can handle drinking a 6 pack cause the tylenol cures my hangover and the xanax gets rid of the anxiety I feel from the guilt of drinking.

Like, I bought a 12 pack 2 months ago and it's stil sitting in my fridge cause the thought of even smelling it makes me wanna puke.

Well then. And here you take someone like me, I can't understand someone drinking beer for reasons other than to appreciate it's complex flavors and aromas (cheap beer excluded).

The only way I can drink beer is to mix it with ginger ale to cover up the taste.
even then I have to chug it and hold my breath so I can't taste it.
