I seldom drink anything in the garage. My projects don't take long enough that I need to be drinking something. Besides, I can't work and have a drink in my hand. No work gets done if my hands aren't free.
My garage refrigerator has only beer in it, but that isn't used for garage work. After I have to suffer through mowing the lawn, my reward is a cold beer outside on the porch.

 

[shopboy13]

Dr. Pepper and mtn. Derr

 

[trainer]

Coffee

 

[PowerGenGuy]

Dr. Pepper

 

[concealer404]

Stella Artois

[jaymz1967]

Lots of Dr. Pepper guys here. I'm a Pepper too along with an occasional snort of Jack Dainels.

 

[jetmech09]

[The Hot Rod Grille]

Either a root beer float or Pepsi.

Jim

 

[canuckian]

Dr pepper or coffee usually.

Sweet lookin Pepsi machine Jim! did you restore it or did you get it in that condition? I think it would be cool to restore something like that... I remember as a youngin goin to the corner store and getting a bottle of Dr for 25 cents LOL .. always took an empty bottle for the deposit of 5 cents off.

Dave

 

[Tarheelgarage]

anything with alcohol in it...

 

[Laker]

Homebrew. For the summer it's hefeweisen

 

[PeteMoore]

Coffee or Red Bull, the odd alcoholic beverage such as Crabbies Ginger Beer

 

[lowbucktruck]

Black coffee in the morning... then either Mello Yello, Gatorade, or lemonade. And after working, beer (garage beer of the week is Deschutes Brewery Twilight Summer Ale). I try to keep the garage fridge stocked with a variety of beverage options for visitors.

Hi Dave,

Thanks for the comments! The LaCrosse Pepsi can vendor is a "survivor" that spent it's early years in a "light use" location, therefore it only needed a little cleaning and wax to appear as you see it in the pics.

The Ideal Model 55 "slider" bottle machine in the pic below required a total restoration by me before it was ready for use in the garage. It is somewhat difficult to find glass bottles that will fit the rails and vend properly, so this machine doesn't get the use that the LaCrosse can one does.

It's always fun to hand a visitor a dime and invite them to get a cold Pepsi.

Oh wow!! that slider is actually what I remember using when I was like 6 yrs old!!

 

[Will67]

A friend gave me a Chelada a few moths ago, been hooked since. Who knew clamato n beer would taste good.

 

[sharkytm]

Seltzer... tastes better than water, has some fizz, and no calories or carcinogenic chemicals.

 

[Stevedore]

As some country singer said, "I like beer". Or a Scotch. But only if I'm cleaning up, putting a finish on a wood project, etc. If I'm using the table saw, bandsaw, etc., it's just water or maybe coffee.

 

[TommyK]

Busch Light.

It's cheap and you get a lot.

 

[larryv]

Ice Cold Coke Classic!

 

[djd99]

I don't drink when I'm working but when I'm finished and cleaning up I like labattes Blue Lime to relax.

 

[CGarcia]

[bumblebee]

Bud light for me !

With garage temps of 100+ any time after 10am, I start off with fresh bell pepper, cilantro, tomato, orange, lemon juice, then move on to water. If I know that I am going to be working for a while, I will make some carrott, apple, banana, orange juice ahead of time so that I can drink fresh cold juice while I am working. Even drinking plenty of water and nutrient rich juice, anything longer than about 4 hours of work (in the 100+ degree heat) gets unproductive towards the end.
