Definition
A person who carouses; someone who drinks and celebrates in a lively, often boisterous way.
Etymology
From carouse plus the agent suffix -er, which creates nouns meaning 'one who does [verb].' The term emerged in the 16th century alongside the verb carouse itself.
Kelly Says
In Shakespeare's time, 'carouser' was actually a somewhat romantic figure—not quite a drunk, but someone with enough wealth and status to party openly, which says a lot about how attitudes toward celebration have changed!
