Didn't get drunk off light beer

[JEDI]

i was drinking a glass (16oz) of Bud light draft every 30min.

after 4 glasses, i didnt even have a buzz. (i was full of food.)

light beer has less alcohol than regular beer?

 

[waffleironhead]

light on calories, same alcohol. but at 4.2% its gonna take a bunch to affect most people.

4 glasses of American draught in two hours?

bud light is 4.2% while budweiser is 5.0%

4 beers in 1.5 hours while full of food didn't get you a buzz? what a shocker! unless you weigh 100 pounds it really shouldn't

check out what your BAC would be after 1.5 hours and 4 beers here

for me, 4 beers in ~1.5 - 2 hours my BAC would be a whopping ~.018

Same here. Its near impossible for me to get drunk off beer. Usually I start feeling sick just from having too much liquid in my stomach long before I get drunk.

Lite beer is for drinkathons.

2 hours and 4 beers and I'd consider most men of average size or bigger to still be sober.
Now then, if you weighed <100 pounds, you'd probably be pretty tipsy.

Um, no. It's less than the standard 5% for domestic non-light beers

light beer sucks. i have never had a good light beer.

Dude, you understand thats only like 6 shots. Who gets drunk off 6 shots while having a full belly?

 

[Crusty]

I made a 2-gallon jug of margaritas.... mmm

 

[Mo0o]

It's less alcohol content. If you're eatign and drinking at the same time, probably hard to get drunk before you get full

 

[SunSamurai]

Its not even that its little alch content, its how the body absorbs it.

Next time, mix something.

 

[GodlessAstronomer]

Depends on what you mean by light beer. There are 3 distinct definitions for light beer, which is kind of annoying. Americans tend to call low-carb beer 'light beer'. In other places, light beer is low-alcohol beer (0.5 - 2%). Some people refer to light-coloured beer like wheat beers as light beer.

But in any case, 4 beers in 2 hours shouldn't get you drunk or buzzed.

4 standard alcohol (or close enough) beers in 2 hours with food? .. is this your first time?

That is correct

Shit, I don't always get drunk off hard liquor anymore. Genetics suck.

This. The sheer amount of liquid required to get really pissed from beer would do me in first. But then I have a fairly high tolerance.

I don't think I could drink four glasses in two hours. But that probably has more to do with Bud Light tasting horrible.

 

[SunSamurai]

Ive gone though 3/4th a L of 80proof in one night once. (about 30 of your beers in alot less time I'd imagine)

5% isn't really standard, though something around 5% is. I've seen beers from 3% to 7% without being light beers. Light beers are between 2.5% to 4.5%. Non-alcoholic is below 2.5% (below .5% in america).

Wow. I thought that was common knowledge.

 

[KeypoX]
