    I’m not sure whether that’s a hot take, and I know there are different levels of tolerance, but I think you might have a problem if you drink 20 beers in 2-3 days (assuming 4-6% alcohol). Or at least you will probably have, starting day 2 :D

      I mean, if you’re doing a full weekend of activities with friends those beers could be spaced out far enough that you’re never more than slightly buzzed (small cans, <5%ABV). But yeah, if it’s a regular thing, it’s not a great look.

      Assuming 12oz beers at 5% ABV, that you’re a man at the global average weight of 180lbs, and have a healthy liver, if you paced yourself to 1 beer every 1.5 hours over the course of your 16 waking hours per day, your BAC would never exceed 0.02, you’d have 5-10 minutes between beers with a BAC of 0, and you’d drink about 12 beers in a day.

      Most people would not be noticeably intoxicated by this and probably wouldn’t experience any kind of hangover. They might wind up a bit dehydrated if that’s the only thing they drink. It’s also definitely not advisable to do that over any extended period of time.

      There is a big difference if it’s a periodic activity or a one time party thing. If it’s a one time one, it’s not a big deal, apart from heavy hangover afterwards.

      20 beers

      There’s no volume stated here… is 1 beer a pint, 0.5 liters, small bottle/can of .33 liters, 2 liter bottle.

      If it’s the the small bottle it’s not that much

          0.33 in Nordics. Then also 0.4, common bar serving, and 0.5l can and full pint, 0.568l cans.

          But “a beer” in the Nordics would generally be 0.33 from a can and 0.4l from a tap

              Yup. It is indeed. I just wanted to add info.

              Sometimes I seem sodas in 0.355 cans, mostly red bull. Somewhat uncommon size here imo, and I’m just wondering where theyre used. 0.355 seems like a US size, but the bottles I got from Germany were mostly 0.33l aa well. Although the cans were like 0.6l

              Just wondering how prevalent and mismatched the standards are

                355mL is 12 fl oz in Freedom Units™, and is the most common soda/beer size in the US. Red Bull and other such energy drinks tend to come in a smaller form factor, oddly enough.

                  Yeah there’s 250ml Red Bull, which is the most common one, but then theres a larger version here which goes to 355 and I think even larger, a 473ml one.

                  But yeah the tiny 250 is the most common
