How to Play the Drinking Game Beer Blow
It's late. You're weary from playing a heavy-duty drinking card game, like Ultimate Loser, but you don't want to quit and go home. You may even have some beer left over. Beer Blow may be the game you're looking for. If you've still got cards, people and beer on the premises, you can play the sudden-death game Beer Blow. It's short, sweet and a good excuse to keep drinking.

1
Set up the game. Take your empty bottle (a longneck makes the most dramatic presentation) and carefully stack a deck of cards on top.
-
2
Reduce the chances of beer interference. Designate an official pourer, in order to keep beer tending separate from the area of play. Card stacks are precarious, and balance is of utmost importance to the game.

Review how to play the game, because group participation is required. The object is to not be the player to blow the last card off the bottle.
-
4
Play by taking a birthday-candle breath and blowing at the stack of cards atop the bottle. You must remove some cards, or you drink a full glass of beer, but you don't want to remove all the cards. That gets you a drink too.
-
5
Move play to the next drinker at the table, who also blows on the precarious beer-stacked cards with the same objective.
-
6
Levy one-glass drinking penalties for: touching the cards or bottle in any way, failing to blow any cards off the stack, or being the player to blow the final card off the stack. Winner outlasts the beer supply.

Tips & Warnings
Think finesse. Find a happy breath medium somewhere between tsunami and sigh. Too much blow will make you lose. Not enough will make you lose too.
Use only lungpower to achieve your mission. Touching the cards is not allowed.
This is a high-buzz game of slamming the beer you've got left. If you've already hit your drinking limit, pass and let someone else deal with the hangover tomorrow.
Be kind to beer drinkers. If you have a cough or cold, Beer Blow is probably not the game for you.
Know your limits, be 21 or over, and get someone who isn't drinking to drive you home.
