I imagine it takes A LOT of beer to get an elephant tipsy.

Indeed, I'd imagine so. Still, if he had actually gotten away with that and hadn't been caught and posted online, he might have come back another day with a gallon or more beer..

Point is, that's not a very smart thing to do, no matter how little or much beer it was. Hell, elephants use their trunks for water, that's natural. But have you ever had beer go up your nose? The stuff burns, how would anyone guess whether beer would or wouldn't burn the elephant's trunk and make the elephant freak out...
