A man walked into a small Irish pub and ordered three beers. Bartender was surprised, but he served that man three beers. One hour later the man ordered three beers again. The very next day that man ordered three beers again and drank quietly at a table. This repeated several times and shortly after the people of the town were whispering about the man, who was ordering three beers at once.
A couple of weeks later, the bartender decided to clear this out and inquired: „I do not want to pry, but could you explain, why do you order three beers all the time?” The man replied: „It seems strange, isn‘t it? You see, my two brothers live abroad at the moment, one – in France and another – in Italy. We have made an agreement, that every time we go to pub each of us will order an extra two beers as it will help keep the family bond“.
A week later the man came back to the pub and this time ordered only two beers, not the usual three. The bartender, feeling sorry for the man, then said : " I would like to offer you my condolences due to the death of your dear brother”. The man considered this for a moment and then replied: "Oh, you are probably surprised that I ordered only two beers now? Well, my two brothers are alive and well, it‘s just because I promised myself to give up drinking“.
