BEER-LOVING Brits will spend more than a YEAR of their lives down the pub, a study shows.
In the average week we head out for a pint at least twice, taking a total of three hours, 34 mins.
That adds up to just under eight days a year.
And during the average drinking lifetime of 60.5 years — past the legal age of 18 — we will prop up the bar for 11,220.7 hours, or 467.5 days.
The typical drinker will fork out up to £124,927.66 on their favourite pub tipples over their lifetime, with lager the most commonly-bought drink, says the poll of 2,000 adults by pub chain Taylor Walker.
Forty-four per cent of us prefer drinking with a partner, while a further third like to catch up with mates. One in ten sup with work colleagues.
A Taylor Walker spokesman said: “A good pub is a fundamental part of British culture.”
