This Fish Likes to Drink Beer, Too

Even if you don't fish much, any ideal summer fishing trip involves sun, beers by the water, and hopefully, catching something. But in Brazil, it appears the actual fish like to show up and gulp down a nice cold one, too.

As seen in the video above, a group of Brazilian dudes were joined by a particularly thirsty fish that appears to grab the boat with its fin while one of the guys pours beer right into its mouth. And while you'd think fish wouldn't have any interest in beer, this one chugs the stuff like a champ, literally demonstrating the old expression, "drink like a fish." It's simultaneously the stupidest thing we've ever seen and, well, awesome.

If this video is real, we're not sure whether to be jealous of the fish for getting free beer poured right into its mouth or bad for the lil' guy's liver. We also have no idea what the dudes are saying at the end of the video, but we're assuming it's something to the effect of, "Holy shit, you guys, we just fed beer to a fish!" Welp. Brazil sounds like a helluva place.
