Well somebody's gotta pick up the slack with you being gone a lot of the time.

Me: I go through about a 12 pack week
Coworker: You drink during the week?
Me: Yeah
Coworker: You don't mind the hangovers?
Me: Umm, have you ever drank before? You don't get hungover from having 1-3 a beers and if you do, i really feel sorry for you

I need 6+ do get into hangover territory... and I drink way less frequently than you.

I am struggling a bit with Denver trip, I have friend that moved to Colorado last summer and we'll only be just over an hour from him.
The problem is he can be a PITA if he doesn't get his away and I don't really want to accommodate him both days I'm there. I'm thinking we might go to Rockies/Phillies game on a Sunday and I can see if he wants to go Phillies game on Sunday and then he'd probably drive home. Mixing friend groups can be a pain.
My other option is to not tell him. Mrs and I are probably going to go out this fall and I could see if he wanted to do separate trip to go to soccer/baseball game

Yeah for hangover, yeah 6 and that is if I'm drinking strong IPA or whisky or something. I rarely have more than 4 on a weeknight as it can effect my sleep and no reason to drink that much, but sometimes at lawn bowling/curling if I'm not driving I have gotten a bit carried away
But I would be lying if I said there wasn't the occasional weeknight in summer on my patio where I'm reading a book and having beer and not keeping count and I'll stand up, and be, holy shit
then look at beer stash and go, ahh fuck
But i need to make sure I can fit into @ill jacket next time he's in town, so
Coors was a nice place to catch a game. Would highly recommend the Rocky Mountain Armory national park (right next to the Rapids stadium) in Denver as well. Pretty neat to see a herd of buffalo and the Denver skyline in the same view.

the only times I drink during the week are when I'm traveling for work. Beer or two with dinner are pretty usual unless I'm driving. At home it probably takes more than a month to go through a 12 pack.
Don't tell him. It would be one thing if you were going to be there longer but since you're not, it's probably best you focus on what you and the Mrs. want.

We do have a surprisingly large amount of games under domes this year. Something like 14 out of 17 games are indoor.

I tend to drink more in summer when I sit outside and patio and beer, winter 12 pack might last a little a longer
But typically, a beer or G&T while making dinner and another with dinner and that is about it
If I'm feeling crazy, I'll have a post dinner drink

I'm going with a different friend, not the Mrs. Mrs and I are probably going to go to Colorado again to see him and his wife at a later date, I can see the confusion

Doesn't change the conversation.
If you have that friend who just can't hang out and wants to monopolize your itinerary, then just don't involve him at all unless you're sure you want to do what he wants to do.
