Default Alcohol Tolerance??

Since the subject of alcohol seems to be so popular, I thought i'd pose this question. what is your general alcohol tolerance level? I'll split it up into 2 categories, beer drinkers or hard liquor (or both)

How many beers does it take for you to get tipsy or just completely out of it??

or/and

How many shots does it take for you to get drunk? (Vodka, 151, Jack's, etc..)

In terms of beer, it takes me prolly like 8-10 beers in a considerably short period of time..

In terms of hard liquor, it gets the job done quicker, but I can never remember how much I took the next day so it must be working

For me, it all depends on the atmosphere I'm drinking in.

Beer wise I can vary from 12-24+

Hard alcohol usually do vodka tonics, it's harder to keep count on those puppies...they taste like candy.

for shots, about 5 or 6, anything 80-100 proof will do the job for me... I just made the mistake of getting something flavoured once, which makes you think that you can have way more than your capacity..

12 pack of fairly high alc content beer does it for me, but when i'm still standing at the end.
With had stuff thats a different story. Depends on my mood/what i've had to eat that day. sometimes 5-6 and i'm done, but i have killed a 5th of jack a few times.

I'm a big wimp with alcohol. About 3-5 beers in 1-2 hours will get me a decent beer buzz...I can't drink anymore than that or else I yak. Likewise, 3-4 shots of 80 proof hard liquor in a span of 1-2 hours will also kick my ass. But no worries, I make up for the pathetic alcohol tolerance by stoning my damn head off.

I mostly only dring beer, usually crappy beer at that, and it takes from 12 to 16 for me to be a little drunk. I never drink hard alcohol.

Hmmmm, about 3-4 adios mother F@$kers will set me up for a good night. Personally I am not that big into beer and so adios's get me to where I want to be quickly.

The Monk is a hard liquor man (tequila). In his prime The Monks record stands firm at 38 shots in a night...
He won that drinking contest...


Today The Monk does not drink AS much anymore he now gets blasted off 6 to ??? Tokyo Teas (Same as a Adios Mother but with Midori instead of Blue Carisou (spellin?) ) Overbooster was there, The Monk does not remember how many he had.

My best night was the first night my gf and I went clubbing together.....I did 12 rasberry 151 shots, then went home and partied more with wine and champagne woooohoooo, my girl knows how to party.

Now I usually have 5-6 crown and cokes, where crown makes up about 60% of each drink, plus whatever shots everyone else has, usually about 4-5 in a night.
