Beer Chess, the drinking man's sport
While endorsing drinking games can be problematic, there is no doubt that there is a huge amount of fun to be had when mixing the great tactical art of Chess with profuse amounts of beer.
To start with you are going to need a board. This will be large.
Typically youll need 64 square beer coasters. These will need to be liberated from nearby bars well in advance, so as you are not too wrecked before the game begins.
Any kind of coaster will do, as long as the backs are blank.
You will then need and 32 bottles and cans to use as playing pieces.
Or alternatively, 32 glasses in 6 different patterns so you can differentiate the white from black.
King Large Bottle / Large Glass
Queen Large Bottle / Large Glass
2 bishops 12oz can / medium glass
2 knights 12oz can / medium glass
2 rooks 12oz can / medium glass
8 pawns 8oz can / small glass
If using glasses, then a Beertender from heineken and krups b95 home beer tap system with a fully charged keg may be required.
There is a school of thought that suggests the white pieces should consist of a light beer, while the black pieces contain full strength, however i would maintain that for the highest possible effect, full strength should be embraced under all circumstances.
To assemble the board, use the blank side of the coaster as a white square, and the decorated side as the black square. Arrange them in an 8 by 8 checker board pattern on any stable surface, ideally a dark wooden table strong enough to support the beer and one to two collapsed grand masters.
For very serious players, you may care to consider investing in 32 white & 32 black kitchen tiles for a more permanent playing surface.

HOW TO PLAY: Follow the traditional chess rules, but with these extra penalties, to keep things interesting:
1. When you move a piece, you must take a sip from it.
2. If your piece is captured, you must drink the entire piece.
3. Castling requires two sips: one from the king, one from the rook.
4. En passant requires only one sip (as in a standard pawn move).
5. When your pawn reaches the eighth rank and is exchanged for another piece, your opponent must drink the remainder of the pawn.
6. Once you sip a piece, you must move that piece.
7. You can take as long as you want to drink a captured piece, but the piece must be quickly consumed if another of your pieces is captured.
8. If you are put in check, you must sip from the king.
9. Passing out constitutes a resignation.
10. If you are checkmated, you must drink the remaining beer in your king, the remaining beer
in your opponents king, and the remaining beer in all of your pieces.
