Is the drink 7% vodka or 7% alcohol?

 

[SWirth86]

I have no clue.

 

[Turin39789]

the only thing that i drink that is even clost to as low as 7 percent ( thought is is usually over) is beer, and it takes more than 10

 

[minendo]

WTF is a 7% drink?

 

[Ness]

Over what period of time?

I'm trashed if I drink a 6 pack of Bacardi O3 in under an hour, but I can drink a 6 pack over a period of 3 hours and not feel a thing.

What exactly do you mean by buzz? If it's a slight buz then probably 3-4 if drunk within one hour. If by buzzed you mean when others notice - then 10+, it's really hard to get that drunk on 7% drinks, which is slightly more than your average beer.

 

[Shockwave]

REALLY depends on how I feel. I've went out before, had 1 White Russian and 1 beer and been done for. I've wentout other times and had trays of shots to the table and pitchers as fast as they could bring them and lasted all night. Granted, I was done for come nights end, but I stayed for the 9th inning so to speak.

yea by "buzz" i mean.. when you can REALLY notice it, but you can still behave and speak in a coherent manner if you try to, but act goofy/stupid/tipsy if you don't bother paying attention. That's about where I am now and I'm on my 4th smirnoff ice (which is 7% here).. smirnoff ice and triple black are the same % here.

by 7% drink I'm not sure ... its whatever smirnoff ice/triple black is.

I used to be able to drink a whole back (4) without feeling much, but now I feel pretty buzzed after 3. pretty sad

i only weigh between 140-150 max tho. so i guess for someone who doesn't drink often that's not awful

 

[Crazymofo]

One rum and coke and I can feel a buzz but then again I drink them really fast! Im a freaking light weight...

 

[Tetsuo]

Depends on how fast I drink it

 

[flxnimprtmscl]

Back when I used to drink 5-6 was the number to get me a buzz. To achive teh drunkenness was significantly more than that though.

What beers do you drink that are well over 7% ?

 

[randomlinh]

it all depends on how fast i drink....

 

[BigJ]

About 11-12 gets my buzz going. About 15-16 and I'm pretty well off.

German extra-stout brews, I'm betting.

I don't measure percentages when I pour out my rum & cokes.

If I'm not doing anything else besides drinking I usualy feel it after 3 drinks in a short amount of time, and 4 an hour to keep it going. For anybody else to notice that Ive been drinking I need to have ~15 drinks in an hour or so.
But to answer your question I try to stay as far away from those sweet malt drinks as I can.

You can drink 15 7% drinks in an hour?

I really find that hard to believe.

Not 7%, but 5% beers or mixed drinks that I can usualy gague the amount of alcohol, so around 15 shots. I also said an hour or so, maybe I should have said an hour and a half? This is also with a full stomach of fast food. If I have an empty stomach after 7 or 8 I'm pretty sloshed.
15 7% drinks in an hour would be quite a lot

 

[ElFenix]

i'm going with 9

 

[CraigRT]

7%?

hell if i drank one of those in 2 mins i'd be buzzed

i voted 2.

that's reasonably strong...

 

[nodoubts2k]

Yay! I love polls!

15 beers in 1 hour is impossible. you'd pop.
