BeenHereBefore 1,519 Posted February 24, 2024 NORM DRANK “NEAR BEER. The bar on the set may have been fully functional, but that doesn’t mean the cast got to spend the day throwing back cold ones. Norm may have had it the worst. As the bar’s resident lush, he’s rarely seen without a sudsy glass of beer in his hand. But what’s really in that glass is “near beer,” a weakened strain of ale mixed with a bit of salt to keep a perfect head on the glass at all times. Which Wendt unfortunately had to consume on more than one occasion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I did as well but read somewhere that Mickey Rourke did get hammered when he played in Barfly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
