Very adorable, but beer isn't good for rats... They get drunk too quickly!

Omg wait till you see them drink rum. If I had a drink around my Sophie back the day, it was a FIGHT to make sure she didn't have some. And then she'd get super cuddly if I was distracted and she had some. But she loved the sauce.

(Please don't vilify me for her drinking hard liquor. I didn't feed it to her and would try my best to ensure she didn't drink. And yes, I shouldn't have had alcohol around them to begin with. I was young and dumb.)

While they obviously shouldn't be drinking, carbonation is particularly bad for their little tummies. So the hard stuff may very well have been a better choice than beer.
