Got a group of friends and a love for hockey? What better way to spend an evening than combining the two with a hockey-drinking game?

Grab your drinks and teams, and get ready to have some fun with these fun drinking games!

1. Beer Hockey

Beer Hockey is a simple coin game, perfect for playing with friends around a table. You pretend the quarter is a hockey puck, and a beer can is the goal.

The goal in this hockey-drinking game? Just flick the quarter to try and hit another player’s beer can.

How to play Beer Hockey

Playing this hockey-drinking game is easy; all you need is a table, some friends, and, of course, beer! Start by arranging the players in a circle around the table. Place a whole can of beer in front of each player.

1. Gather all the Hockey enthusiasts around. Have everyone sit in a circle around a table. Each player needs an entire can of beer in front of them.

2. Start spinning the quarter! The first player spins a quarter on the table.

3. Call your shooter. The spinner calls the name of another player. That player is the shooter.

4. Don’t let your beer get hit! Everyone else covers their beer cans with two fingers except the shooter. The shooter tries to hit someone’s beer can with the quarter.

6. If you hear a clink, you drink: If the quarter hits a can, making a clink sound, everyone removes their beer cans from the table. The owner of the hit can drink.

7. Finish your drink quickly! After drinking, if the can owner finishes their beer before the quarter stops spinning, they can slam their can down on the quarter. The original spinner then has to drink a beer.

8. Keep playing! Players take turns spinning, shooting, and drinking. You can play this hockey-drinking game until someone is declared the winner by points or elimination.
