Same questionable pint.

Hold My Beer is a browser game operated by Thoughtless Labs. Last updated September 8, 2026.

Free lives and extra lives

You start with five free lives. One refills every 20 minutes, up to five. Every new launch uses one life, whether the beer arrives or not. Replays, editing and sharing are free. Purchased lives are used only after your free lives run out, and do not expire while the service operates. Lives have no cash value, cannot be transferred or withdrawn, and are not a wager or prize.

One-time purchases

The checkout screen shows the price and currency before you pay. A life pack contains 25 attempts. There is no subscription or automatic renewal. Stripe processes payments; we never receive your full card number. Lives are credited after Stripe confirms payment. Delayed payment methods may take time to confirm.

Keep your recovery code

An essential browser cookie identifies your player. Your browser also stores your build and recovery code locally. Save the private recovery code before purchasing. It restores your player on another device or after clearing cookies. Anyone who has it can access your balance. We do not require an email account to play.

Privacy

We store an anonymous player identifier, life balance, recovery-code hash, game attempts, builds, results, and Stripe checkout identifiers. Shared replays and qualifying leaderboard entries are public, including the build and score. Do not put personal information into a recovery field. We use connection information for short-lived rate limits and operational security. Hosting logs may contain IP addresses. We use no advertising trackers or third-party analytics.

Purchase problems and deletion requests

For a missing purchase, refund request, or player deletion, contact @thoughtlesslabs on X. Include the Stripe receipt or checkout reference for purchase support. Never post your recovery code publicly. Refunds are reviewed for unused packs and technical issues; applicable consumer rights remain unaffected. If a payment is still processing, wait for confirmation before purchasing again.

Availability

This is an independent game. We work to keep it available, but outages and changes can happen. We will address unused paid balances if the service closes. There are no financial prizes or promises of winning. By playing, you agree not to attack the service or abuse its free-life system.
