Bottoms up!

Only logical reason I can come up with is that the tissue in that area (ass) is thinner and would absorb the alcohol quicker than drinking it.

As for the booze enema...the large intestine absorbs alcohol very quickly into the bloodstream.  I'm aware of a case from Texas in 2005 of a man who was a long-time alcoholic.  He had throat cancer and could not drink anymore.  He was near death anyway, and his wife wanted to alleviate his suffering...so she bought an enema kit from a drugstore and a bottle of cooking sherry (no need to waste the good stuff up your bum, right?).  She poured a liter of sherry up his bum and he died in minutes.  The local DA briefly considered charging her with manslaughter, but it was eventually discarded as an unfortunate accident.

Edit:  looks like my details were a bit off (this was ten years ago), but I got the basic story right.

Saw a picture of their beer in cans.  Cans?  Not a fan.

Also the name is not inspiring.  They could have come up with something more interesting than "Golf Beer".

Many craft brewers are using cans these days.  They're more eco-friendly (aluminum is much more easily recycled than glass), more portable (I hate seeing bottles at the beach), and protect the contents (i.e. the beer) better than glass (UV rays can kill beer pretty quickly).  The beer is meant to be poured into a proper glass anyway.

Coroner recorded death by pissed adventure presumably?

yup, alcohol gets absorbed rather quickly through the colon.  the neighbor was able to hide his problem for a long time, apparently.  sad case.

anyways, i like newcastle.  but apparently the bottles are why it gets skunky sometimes.
