I wrote "birre" instead of "birra". In the english sentence the amount of beer being drunk is not specified, but it seems unlikely that it is just one beer. Does the word "birra" in italian imply that the men were only drinking one beer?
From what I can tell, l'uomo is the same as saying il uomo but you partially merge them together because uomo starts with a vowel; il uomo turns into l'uomo. I is a pluralized il but because of the vowel u in uomo you have to use gli (pronounced like the name Lee). Uomini is the plural form of uomo. Hope this helps you!
