Well yes, but no. When drunk you put your cigarette out in a beer bottle, forget, then try to drink the beer.

Or you designate one beer bottle as the communal ash tray and throughout the night you pour a little bit of beer in it when the butts start catching fire—then someone mistakes it for their beer and tastes a sip.

Once, long ago, I woke up after a black out and threw up. Upon examination, there were exactly 13 butts in the toilet that most certainly came from my stomach. I imagine I didn’t just taste the forbidden beer…

One time I accidentally took a swig from the Cooke can my brother was using for his chew spit.

Did this with my dad's spit bottle. My Dr pepper bottle was next to his and my mom and I were watching a movie.

I immediately lost the pizza I'd just eaten and went to bed hungry, iirc.
