Meaning you've got a buzz, you are enjoying yourself, and you won't feel terrible in the morning. Also, you will stop yourself.

My number is 5. 5 regular beers. If I creep in the ABV of a craft beer the number drops to 4.

5 is also my stop number. If I have the sixth, it's gonna be a long night.

I had the 6th yesterday. It was downhill. Very prolonged hangover, so I have time on my hands. Hence, my thread.

Depends on the drink. Half a bottle of vodka, two bottles of malbec, 9 beers, or 6 or 7 bourbons on the rocks.

Sidecars, 3. The fourth sidecar leads to nefarious deeds.

I rarely drink more than 4 beers in a sitting anymore, so I'd say around 4

start with 4-5 beers. then go to liquor. tricks your body to absorb the liquor at the same rate as the beer (4x fast).

then back to beer 6-14 after a couple shots or drinks to maintain drunkness level. about beer 8-10 is peak W.C.

Depends on what I'm drinking, and what I had to eat and drink prior to the booze

I haven't really drank at all in the last 6 months. Like almost 0 drinks. I drank 2 beers and a bottle of wine last night. Downed a Gatorade before bed and feel fine today. I have no idea how I'm not at least a little hungover, but I'm kind of proud of myself in a white trash sort of way.

Depends. Drinking is like being a pitcher. Some nights you don't have your best stuff

4-5 IPAs I can handle usually.

I obviously won't be driving but I'm not going to feel like shite until Wednesday. Probably should keep that closer to 4, because once I get to 5 or 6 I often keep going, then I'm screwed.

I don't know what it means to stop after just a few.

When I turned 25 it seems like I lost my ability to drink hard. The farther I get from 25, the more severe my hangovers become.

I can drink light beers all night and be fine as long as I drink water between and after drinking. I'd say 4 double mixed drinks spaced out in one night is my sweet spot.

2-3 double bourbons (or scotch). I dont drink beer. No point in wasting time with it when there is good liquor to be had.
