How much alcohol gets a person drunk if drinks beer of 4.5% and spirits of 43%?!


Question: Wheight is about 50kg


Answers: Wheight is about 50kg

Well roughly, one new single (25ml) of a strong spirit such as whiskey yields around 10ml of pure alcohol which is similar to a half pint of medium strength. If you're drinking bottled beer then adjust your calculations accordingly as volumes per bottle vary.

With this in mind; a double whiskey is the equivalent of a pint and a single is the same as a half.

If you're drinking somewhere that sells the traditional full measures (35ml and 70ml) then shorts will get you smashed quicker.

If you drink mixers and cocktails which you are unfamiliar with it can get incredibly complicated. Especially if your drink has several alcoholic components.

How much will affect you? It depends on many many things, as the others already said. Try sticking to say one pint/double per hour for one night. That sounds sensible to me for your body weight. If you feel drunk, stop. Next time, adjust your intake up or down based on how well you did last time. This is probably the quickest and easiest way you're going to sort it out.

If you and your friends buy rounds then this can be difficult to stick to. Buying rounds was actually made illegal in Britain with the passing of the Defence of the Realm Act 1914 precisely for the reason that it forces people to get drunk. When it's your round you could always try buying yourself a non-alcoholic becks. I drink it and it tastes great. Very hard to tell the difference. The price is very similar too. Sometimes cheaper!

It all depends on many variables. I'd say like 7 beers? Less?

everybody reacts differently.

there are many things you first need to consider...age, physical condition and metabolism..these are the 3 main factors...ur age will determine ur bodys ability to deal with the alcohol...the physical condition also relates to this and metabolism will effect how quikly the alcohol goes into the blood stream..if u have a high metabolism u can drink more as the alchol is broken down before it can be absorbed into the blood through the stomach..if ur metabolism is slow then it will pass into ur blood quiker...save bet is when u start to feel light headed thats too much as u generally felt this way from about 2 drinks ago so when those other 2 drinks take effect ul be drunk...ppl dont realise it takes a good 30 mins to an hour for the drink to enter ur blood so ppl hammer them back and it all hits them at once.

Well since all alcohol has the same effect it is based on volume an ounce of hard alcohol is equal to a bottle of beer
or a 6oz glass of wine. If you mainly drink beer I would say you would start feeling tipzy around the 4-5 bottle mark. If your drinking cocktails well the same as long as they are singles if they are doubles then of course less to get wasted.

If your not measuring your booze when mixing then you could be having a triple instead of a normal drink. I think at your weight consume alcohol slowly and wait a few minutes in between drinks it takes a few minutes for the effects of the alcohol to enter the bloodstream.

Good Luck and as the saying goes drink responsibly and in moderation.
