HEAPS.. me and the guys sit around most nites and have 20 beers each and are sweet. Because theres lots of liquid and gas in beer you'll puke because of the quantity you've consumed way before you get sick because of the alcohol.

In fact i'm not even sure if its possible for a seasoned drinker to get alc poisoning off just beer. You simply can't drink enuf

p.s. to christopher (post below)

what the hell are you talking about, he'll PROBABLY survive.. of couse he will! jeez we had a carlsberg versus amstel beer competition last yr.. I was representing amstel and funnelled 18 beers in 3 hours 15 mins.. I was sweet, had a bit of sickie and just felt a bit full tho lol I was narrowly beaten by Jeremy who knocked back 19..

24

THATS 4 AN HOUR..... I WOULD SLOW IT DOWN, EVEN THOUGH YOU DONT FEEL IT, 1 AN HOUR IS CONSIDERED IMPAIRED......

That all depends on your tolerance and your definition of "safely have" if you mean "not die" then it will be a higher number than if you mean "drive home afterwards"

Tolerance is dependent upon your gender (males generally have more tolerance), weight (heavier people generally have more tolerance) and experience with processing alcohol. I don't know if those who drink frequently have more tolerance or simply have a better feel for the various states of drunkenness and really the point is moot.

12 over 3 hours is seriosuly hammered. You will probably survive as it takes your liver about 1 hour to process 1 beer so you were running 9 beers behind on tha tscore. You are also seriously impaired and should not be trusted to drive (or maybe even walk) home.

You can have as many as you want....but I would forget about driving.

IMHO, I would try to stay sober enough to spell 'safely' properly!

Nonetheless, I think neither height nor weight come into it.
You don't specify what you drank over a 3 hour period. Was it 12 halves? 12 pints? 12 units? 12 strong beers or weak beers?

12 pints could mean you may have used your weekly allowance in one go!!!

You're supposed to limit yourself to around 30 units per week.

So, how is this achieved? 4.3 units per day? Give up booze 2 nights a week and go for 6 units for the remaining 5 nights or binge-drink at weekends?
It's your choice........

The calculation is simple:-

Amount drunk (in ml) times the alcohol content (in %) divided by 1000 equals the number of units.

So, a 500-ml can containing 5% alcohol is 2.5 units.
(500 x 5 divided by 1000 = 2.5).

Take care.

I think you've had too many already, ociffer.

Ok. I encourage people to drink more beer, due to I know is really healthy. In your case, you are doing well. Go ahead!
Cheers!

kill a whole 30 rack then bro
