This is very useful for me to learn new vocab. Thank you very much.
What I have learned:
At beer oclock, you can see a lot of people in the Izakaya (Japanese bar) , especially the office man, even in the Covid-19 period. They want to release stress out after a working day. And it becomes one of Japanese culture. Nowadays women become out-drinking, they can knock back alcohol as men and some of them are boozers. But there are some teetotalers as well.
Please correct me if there is wrong.

Many young people become out-drinking after the age of 21 as they are legally allowed to drink liquors.
Some of my friends remain as teetotalers but others are already serious boozers.
One of these heavy drinkers never hesitates to pour vodka into a glass and knock it back in one swallow.
I enjoy chatting and drinking with her at beer Oclock on a regular basis though I cannot catch up with her when it comes to drinking.

I love this program so much! I used to listen BBC Learning English audio; I didn't expect some day I can watch the video. For English learners, it's very educational.
