Beeramid (rhymes with pyramid, go figga) is a game that involves a tremendous amount of drinking.
A Beeramid (pyramid) of cards is constructed by placing a certain number of cards face down in a row (usually five depending on the number of people) as the base and building up with each level having one less card until there is one card as the top of the Beeramid. The remaining cards are distributed as evenly as possible among the players and kept hidden from other players. Before the game begins every player is allowed to look over their own cards and organize them any way they like, afterward the cards are kept face down in a horizontal line in front of the player and they are not allowed to look at them again once the game begins. Allow some time for players to set this up before starting the game.
For the beeramid we recommend:
The dealer turns over the first card at the base of the beeramid and calls out the card value. Anyone who claims to have that card may give out one drink. The person called out may either drink or call the bluff by saying “bullshit”. If the first person has the card after all, they must pick the card and the victim drinks twice the amount. If the first player doesn’t have the card or picks up a wrong card from their face down cards, the first player drinks twice.
Once a row of the Beeramid is completed, the first card on the next row is drawn, and every card now has the same value as its row. Each person with a card on the second row can give two drinks, on the third row three drinks, all the way up to the fifth (or the last) row. All bullshit calls double the value of the row, of course, making them risky propositions as time goes on.
If someone has more than one of a card (say a five is drawn and someone has two fives in their face down cards) they can give both fives to the same person or split them up. They need to show both cards if bullshit is called.
In the fifth row (or last row), if people are taking honest drinks, a bullshit call should result in about a full beer consumption by somebody. For this purpose, we usually buy a bottle or two of a heinous-tasting beer (your choice) to serve as the “Penalty Beer”. Anyone losing a bullshit challenge on the final row must finish the Penalty Beer without taking it away from their lips…
This game has a surprisingly high intoxication factor, especially if played with more than five levels.
The game begins with cards being dealt and players are not allowed to look at their cards yet. The dealer hands out one card at a time to each player until everyone has a total of 4 cards each. Before they are allowed to see the cards, each player has to guess certain things. With every correct answer the player can give out drinks to others, but with every wrong answer they must drink themselves.
1st round (1 sip)
Before the first card is flipped over every player has to answer whether the color will be “black or red” then flip over their first card. If they guess right then they give out one sip to another player, if wrong they take a drink.
2nd Round (2 sips)
Once everyone has one card flipped over we move to the next question – higher or lower. Each player now has to guess whether the next card they flip over will be higher or lower than their first card. They give out two sips if they guessed correctly, take two sips if they guessed wrong or the card was the same number/value as the first card.
For example, if you flipped over a 7 for the first round you must now guess whether the next card flipped over will be higher or lower than 7.
3rd Round (3 sips)
Inside or outside – after each player has two cards flipped over they must now guess if the value of their third card will be inside or outside of their first two cards. If the player gets a card that has the same value as either of their first two cards then it is counted as inside. They get to give out three sips if they guessed correctly, take three sips if they guessed wrong.
For example, the first card was a 7 and the second card was a 10 so if the player guesses that the third card is inside and the third card ends up being an 8 they guessed correctly. If they guessed inside and get a 7 or 10 they are still correct, but if they guessed outside then they drink.
4th Round (4 sips)
For the last round/card each player has to guess whether it will be a spade, heart, diamond or club. They get to give out four sips if guessed correctly, take four sips if guessed wrong.
Determining who will be the bus driver
After everyone has four cards flipped over we will determine who will be the bus driver. Begin by placing two rows of cards face down with four cards in each row and determine which row will be for taking drinks and which will be for giving out drinks. Now flip over one card at a time from the right side beginning with either the take or give row, after two cards are flipped over from both rows move to the next cards. Players must drop their cards if they match a card being flipped over from the row. The goal of this part is to get rid of as many cards as possible. The first two cards from each row are a sip each, the second two cards from each row are two sips each, and so on… After all the cards in the rows are flipped over whoever has the most cards left is the bus driver.
Before the game begins, place the King’s Cup (a big empty cup) in the middle of the table. Shuffle the deck of cards then place them around the king’s cup in a circle facedown. One person begins the game by flipping over any card. Each card has a different rule attached to it and the rule must be followed before the next person can flip their card. According to house rules, the game ends when either the king’s cup has been consumed or the last card has been drawn.

 Waterfall – everyone puts their drink to their lips and waits for the person who picked up this card to start drinking. Once that person starts drinking then everyone begins chugging their drink. The person who started can stop whenever they want then the next person (clockwise) has the same option to continue drinking or stop, and so on until the last player |
 The classic “you” – pick anyone in the game to drink |
 Me – the person who picked up this card has to drink for three seconds |
 Four for whores – all the ladies have to drink |
 Jive – whoever picked this card has to bust a dance move then the next person has to add onto it and so on until someone messes up and they have to drink |
 Dicks – all the guys have to drink |
 Heaven – Everyone has to point to the sky and the last person to do so has to drink |
 Mate – whoever picked this card gets to choose one person that has to drink every time they do |
 Bust a rhyme – the person who picked this card has to say a word and the next person has to try to rhyme with it. This goes on until someone cannot think of a word that rhymes |
 Category – the person who picked this card chooses a category. The next person has to say something that is relevant to the category that the first person picked and this goes around until someone cannot think of something. A good example is sex positions |
 Thumb Master – the person who picked this card is now the thumb master. Until somebody else gets a jack, this person can put their thumb anywhere on their forehead at any time and the last person to do the same has to drink |
 Question Master – whoever picked this card is the question master. Until somebody else picks a queen – they can ask any question and if someone answers them they have to drink |
 Make a rule – the person who picked this card can make any one rule and it has to be followed until someone else gets a king. Whoever breaks the rule has to drink. The first three people to get a king must pour their drinks into the cup in the middle. The last person to get a king has to pour their drink into the cup but also drink the whole cup. |
Place 6 plastic cups on each end of the table in a pyramid shape as seen in the above image with the base towards you and the tip facing the enemy player/team, you can use more cups if you want to increase the drinking factor. Fill your cups with your alcohol (normally beer) up to the line inside the cup, or about 30-35%.
If you are playing in teams of two then each player gets 3 cups out of the 6 so when your 3 cups get sunk you drink and if your partner's cups get sunk then they drink. You can decide on how to do the split, the easiest way is one person gets the diagonal line and the other player gets the mini pyramid left. Alternatively, you can both drink for each cup that gets sunk - whatever floats your boat.
Fill the bucket with water if you have it, this bucket will be used to clean the balls before players shoot – this step is optional.
The team to shoot first is decided by a successful shot. You must shoot at the same time as the opposite team’s player while maintaining eye contact with them, and the one to sink it gets first shot (no points are gained for this shot). If both players sink a ball then you continue to shoot until one misses or a tie is broken.
Your job is to sink all of the opposing team’s cups before they sink yours. Shots are taken by both players on one team before the opposing team gets a chance to shoot and the sunken cups must be picked up and drank right away. There are a few rules when playing:
Players should alternate who drinks what cup. For example, you drink the first cup that is sunk and your partner drinks the second then you drink the third and your partner drinks the fourth. If a player misses the table when shooting they lose their next turn, however if nobody calls them out before they shoot in their next turn than it counts as a real shot.
When you get down to four cups rearrange them into a diamond as such:
If team A sinks team B’s last cup then team B gets to shoot a redemption shot, if there are two players per team then both players get one redemption shot, and if they manage to sink the ball then the game continues normally and the last cup is left on the table for team B. If team A sinks another ball after the redemption shots then the game is over and team A wins.
Some tips:
A simple adaptation of the skill game with wooden blocks. This Jenga drinking game has a twist though: if you cause the tower to topple, you must finish your drink. The same regular Jenga rules apply with regards to how you can pick the blocks and whatnot.
Using the sharpie write down rules on various blocks so when the person removes that block they or everyone (based on the rule) have to follow/perform what the block said. You can make this a team effort with people writing various rules. Here are some ideas for drunk Jenga:
You can get very creative with these rules, just hope that your not the one who picks that crazy block! Remember, the person who knocks down the tower has to finish their drink and set up the tower again.
All players sit around a table, or similarly hard surface, and, in turn, try to bounce the quarter off the table into the juice glass. If successful, the player tells any other player to have a drink, as well as receiving another turn. If the player fails, play passes to the next player in the circle.
If the player is fortunate enough to make three bounces in a row and makes the shot, this player may make a rule. Anything goes. Some favorites are:
If any rule is broken during the course of game, the violator must have a drink.
Early days variations:
The glass that you bounce into also contains the beer to drink. The trick is to then drink the beer without swallowing the quarter.
If the player bounces and hits the rim of the glass, without the quarter going in, s/he receives another free attempt.
If the player misses and feels confident enough, they may “chance” for another attempt. If the player makes the chance attempt, things proceed as if it were a normal turn. However, if the chance attempt fails, that player must drink double.
Following a failed “chance” attempt, the player may wish to attempt a “kill.” if the attempt is successful, play continues as normal, but if the attempt fails, the player must drink a full glass/can/bottle of beer non-stop.
Gather your party animals, it's Flip Cup time! This fast-paced game is perfect for 4 or 5 tipsy teammates, each armed with half a cup of beer or a double shot of liquid courage (served in those snazzy red plastic cups).
Two teams line up on opposite sides of the table, buzzing with anticipation. The countdown begins, and the first two contestants chug their drinks before attempting the ancient art of cup flipping. With finesse (and maybe a few failed attempts), they flip their cups face down at the edge of the table.
Once the first flip is complete, the next teammate chugs and flips, and so on. The winning team is the one that flips all their cups first!
Feeling extra thirsty? Try the "Double Trouble" variation: every player but the anchors gets two cups. The anchor is your last teammate at the opposite end of where the game starts. Anchors, you're the heroes here, so you get double the beverage in a single cup. The game starts the same way and everyone flips their first cup, but once the anchor flips their cup, the player before them drinks their second cup, flips it and passes it on. The race continues until the first team flips all their cups face down. Bottoms up, champs!
Everyone sits around a table and the empty beer bottle is placed in the middle of the table. Keep the cards face down and spread them out in a circle around the empty beer bottle. The game starts with the person to the left of the dealer picking up a card and performs rules of the card mentioned below. Once the task is performed, for example picking up a three has the “me” drinking rule (see below) so you would have to drink three seconds, then that person will have to put the card on top of the empty beer bottle.
The next person does the same thing and after the rule is performed places the card on top of the empty beer bottle. This goes on until someone knocks the cards off the top of the empty beer bottle. Whoever knocks the cards off has to finish their drink.
If someone hits the table or in any way knocks the cards off the empty beer bottle they will have to finish their drink.

The rules for this game are very similar to the popular drinking game kings cup rules.
