Wheat Beer gon with summer. Now, dark Harvest Ale. Beer that eats like a meal. Watch Foosball, sip drinks Both grinning like Cheshire Cats whisper conspiracies. Limonade and I share White Russian, two straws like 50's malt shop kids.

Nice wordplay 'limonade and I share white russian'

Beer that eats like a meal is a nice idea too

I like the last tercet best. Nice image you build here.

Syllable counts aside, this is haiku, though you'll get the "this isn't 5-7-5" naysayers anyway. (Anyway, many poets write haikus that don't strictly conform to 5-7-5--there is much more to a haiku than the number of its syllables.)

Once I went on a night out with the lads. We got so drunk that we stole a traffic cone. Can you believe it? Boy, that was a crazy night, I can tell you. Never again... ;-)
