I’m not one to turn down a drink deal. Half off wine between four and six o’clock? Consider this mouth stained. Dollars beers on Tuesday night? Hold my calls on Wednesday morning. All-you-can-drink mimos on Sunday morning? Get the Prilosec on deck.
This deal, though. Oh man, thisssssss dealllllll. This is a deal I can get behind. Not only is it a hell of a steal, it also has a competitive aspect to it as well.
Per Fox News, the restaurant Volks is offering an all-you-can-drink beer special for $0.88. But this ain’t your grandma’s all-you-can-drink beer special (I don’t know what that means either) – you have to finish said drinks in 10 minutes or less. The deal is open to beer, wine, and liquor.
The deal extends [beyond beer] to wine and liquor. Patrons can reportedly choose from Asahi Super Dry beer, whisky, shochu (either straight or in a mixed drink), plum wine cocktails, red wine, or white wine.
The catch? Customers are only allowed a 10-minute window to consume their drinks, and they can only order one beverage at a time.
There’s a catch, though, and it’s a mighty one. The timer begins right when the drink is ordered rather than when the drink is delivered to your table, so a shitty server could cost you an extra drink or two if they’re being lazy. This completely alters my visions of just slamming as many pints of beer as humanly possible in ten minutes or less. What could be the perfect way to get a night started hinges completely on a waiter who’s too lazy to run back and forth to the bar trying to feed the beasts.
Oh, and there’s one other catch too. Volks is a restaurant chain that only exists in Japan. So unless you’re going to cross the pond, you’re out of luck and have to stick to the all-you-can-drink mimos we’ve all come to know and love. .

Japan, we’ve taught you well. Never let up the relentless pursuit of happy hour.
Love it. The quicker you can blackout the better.
88 cents to see how many shots I can cram down my face in 10 minutes is a hell of a deal.
The real variable here is whether that will be enough that I don’t buy additional drinks or if it will cause me to blow 100 times that over the rest of the night… could really go either way for my wallet
This doesn’t sound any more pleasant than chugging a flask of bourbon in the bathroom, nor cheaper, and probably only quasi-legal.
Oh just fuck me up.
Challenge accepted.
So it’s basically a limited open bar for 5.28 per hour…
This would be my go to spot, no doubt….
And I thought buy one get one specials in Nashville were good
If you space it shot-beer-shot-beer you have a nice down time before you have to drink every time, drink the right amount of liquid, and get pretty reasonably shitfaced in one hour
Who knew a couple bombs could go a long way!
Cmon, man.
