How much drink can you handle

dendenz

No lying lads, be hinest. Me two pints even though I am 6ft and weight 17 stone !

surprisingly little considering my size.

I'm 6ft2" and 3-4 pints will definitley get meh trolleyed

Ste-

Between 5-6 then it's onto the Vodka etc.
But most of the time I lose count.

Woden

i'd be well drunk on 6 pints, maybe 5 but all depends on how quick i'm drinking them.

miju

after 2 pints I'm pissed outta my diddys

However, for some reason unbeknown to me I seem to be invulnerable when it comes to drinking Vodka and blackcurrent I'll be ****ed if I know why tough

Sangre

Well on Wednesday I had my 4 strongbow(6%) and then my 2 euro bulmers and lets just say I was merry

Zukustious

I can handle a couple of litres of water before needing to pee. As regarding to booze: I don't drink it. How much can a first timer usually handle?

super_furry

Four or five pints will get me halfway there, but by then I just can't drink anymore lager, so I go onto vodka's and have three or four of them. After that I'm well and truly mashed up.

Repli

10 beers

Petal

1 beer

Dun

Crikey. If I was drinking at my mates, I'd easily take a half bottle of whiskey or vodka over a three hour period, and then a couple of more and a pint or two when I go out :eek:

I had 7 pints on Sunday (lager, not whiskey!) and I was merry, but nowhere near drunk. Mind you, that was over 4 hours.

At the same time, I can go without it if I want, and I don't miss it, so I'll not go to AA yet

Crash

i'll be drunk on 6, and can handle up to 10 before i completely collapse.

Though the one thing i've learnt is never drink anything brought over by Jordanians

cournioni

6'6, 16 stone and took 13 pints of Bulmers and three red aftershocks (yuck!) to take me down.


Oh , and one other time I mixed a naggen (sp) of JD, Paddy, and two naggen's of Smirnoff into a quarter filled 2 litre coke bottle. I was well fooked after that. AngelWhore probably remembers what I was like after drinking it (I met him in Whealans).

Amz

Well at a pub crawl last August i drank, I was still standing (straight) at the end of the night unaided!

*3 shots of vodka
*a blue wkd (manky)
*a Smirnoff ice (also manky)
*3 pints of bulmers and blackcurrent
*A white russian
*A black russian
*2 shots of blue aftershock with red bull

I wasn't hungover the next morning though which was nice, till i realised I couldn't feel my legs....

El Marco

6-7 beeeers

Dont be at yourself

I remember, over the course of about 5 hours, I drank around 14 pints and was I still walked home. (I seen the wall at the end of my road and thought that "they" had completely surrounded my estate with a big wall and I couldn't get in, though )

Usually I'd get pissed on a six-pack, but I wouldn't throw up/pass out for a good few more.

Rnger

This is far too relitive. How much you ate that day, your weight, height, how fast you drink, matabolism etc.

Generally, 4 cans/pints and I'm pretty comprimised.

Gordon

Three pints in me hands and a glass of drink in each pocket.

*titter*

s0l

2 pints will get me merry, i had a bad experience iwth a litre of vodka a while ago, i think it stripped my stomach lining, i still cant handle spirits

Makaveli

I can only drink so many pints, after 5 or 6 if I plan on drinking more I have to move on to vodka and redbull.
I dunno how much I can handle, a fair bit I suppose, but if I'm drinking over a fair amount of time, I sober up completly and then I cant actually drink anymore, I just cant stomach it.

[CALIBUR]

6'2 12 stone

around 6 pints well take me somewhere (on my arse front of the club or pub )

Silvera

My all time record so far (and I don't consider myself a drinker) - 4 pints of Smitwicks, 2 pints of Heineken, 2 pints of Carlsberg (different pubs, over 7 hrs) and finished off with 2 Gin and Tonics - and I walked home unaided.

Mutz

6ft - 11.5 stone

4 Pints of beer and I stop and am merry, but to get leggless - 6 or more - oops, I mean 27 pints like the man I am :rolleyes:

what ? this exists ? maybe i should get out more

Amz

I refer you to the cyder? thread on this forum hehe!

It's the biz!!!

Mmmmm....

Bulmers and Blackcurrent

"goes down easier"

Rnger

Most i had was probably a shoulder of vodka in an hour or less. I threw up, blacked out BUT i didnt pass out, for that i am very proud of. A friend drank a nagan in like 10 seconds. No joke. I saw it. He was utterly "sluttered" for the rest of teh night of course.

sound_wave

im 5'11" and 14.5 stone. takes about 6 pints of beer and im merry..after that its a long slippery dark road to about 10 or so...once had 12 pints of bulmers on a night out..was my stomach in shi*t the next day? Yes!...was i hungover? No! Go figure....only drink beer now in my old age...

when i was younger..only a small fella mind.. a naggon and six bud..did i get sick? very!! ha!! but the most i ever had was in crete..about 10 shots of vodka..and shared a 5 liter mini keg thing with a friend...twisted..got in a scuffle with some cretens after..not a nice story.:(

chernobyl

It depends on my humor and when i am happy i get drunk much easier but sometimes i can handle a silly amount but i try to avoid those extremes these days.

6'4 and i would say 6 pints and im very merry but im not really a pints guy <they are just too much effort>

cartman

dont you just hate when "de lads"(i robbed that off sico he said it in some thread) say they had 27 pints last friday night and they were only half blocked.. i thinks its stupid...
im on my 3rd pints after work and im merry headin to drunk and a good night sleep..



cartman a.k.a the fatman who weighs 9stones..(im very skinny really though)

ozt9vdujny3srf

It all depends really.

It takes me 3 to get fairly langered if I drink quickly

However I go through mcuh more usually over a long period of time at things like witnness, while never being more than merry (which is how i like to drink)

Silverfish

I'm 4 foot ten and I can drink 4 - 5 pints of Guinness before I start talking copious amounts of sh*te and arguing religion and politics with potted plants.

I can handle as much Baileys as they can supply, mind.

Shamo

I have a tendency of blacking out if I get really wasted, but i'd say after about 3-4 i'd be feeling merry and after 6 and a few shots thrown in i'd be pretty well drunk!
At that stage i'd be either sitting down talking bull**** or making a fool of myself on the dance floor!

DriftingRain

Is this the most you have drank? Or what it usually takes you to get fuzzy?

The most I have drank was 3 beers and an entire 5th of tequilla. I passed out and threw up all night and all the next day and you can say my toilet was me bestfriend. But at the clubs, with my designated driver or course, I usually drink 6-7 beers to have a very nice buzz with no headach the next morning.

Ill feel them for you ? hehehhe

anywho i can handle alot of booze but i usually dont drink more than about 6 pints, why ? if i drink any mroe i get seriously bad hangovers...and i mean seriously bad

Pimp Ninja

Like has already been said, it's entirely relative, to whatever has been going on. Hours worked, food eaten, amount of exercise that week...

Sometimes I'm 2 beers and I'm giggling like a schoolchild.. Most I've ever had was a pint of mixed spirits (mostly involving this strange swedish homebrew that tasted of liquorish and of an unknown alcohol content), 6 beers, 3 southern comforts, and more that I cant remember. I was still able to walk.

Lately I find myself really tired after a couple of beers, and I'm driving a lot more so my tolerance that I had spent my late teenage years building up, has now been crushed. My younger cousins can drink me under the table now..

yea, im the exact same.
It also depends on length of time u take to consume the alcohol, it takes 45mins for alcohol to have its full effect or sometimes to even start having an effect, I know that if i drink my pints at teh rate i normally do, i can have less and still be merry, then if i knock back shots and cocktails in between pints it tends to have no effect.

Also depends on my mood, if im happy and excited i can knock back a tonne, but if im depressed then I'll get drunker sooner.

Lump

Hmmmmmmm where to start.....


It depends.... If I'm going out to drink (which is quite a lot of the time) Now I'm generalising because I'm not really that sad to count what I'm drinking.

Anyway, 4 Pints of Kronenberg, and a large helping of Irish meadow (a triple), before I go out. Get to the pub I normally have about 2 pints then I get all gassed up and start into the cocktails..... I have about 8 cocktails (Milky and fruity, all have a shot of alcohol in them) then I go on to double vodka and coke have four of them before I leave the pub..... also through the night I have some cheap 50p shots, 10 or so. Then I head to a night club, have another few double vodka's and coke (£1.40 each) normally have 6 or so of them...... then its home to who-evers bed. I'm always up for college at eight the next morning. I tend not to get hangovers, no one in college knows how I do it. I'm brill.....

KdjaCL

Normal night out is 7 pints but spaced.
1 before match
1 half time
5 into the night and im poopy drunk.

If its an away game i can drink from 8am till nightclub closes with match and food breaks.

So 5 pints and i know i have enough, dont matter how much you cna drink its knowing when you have had enough that matters.

kdjac

daveg

In my youth (FFS I'm only 28) and when I used to drink a lot we used to down about 20 Jack Daniels between the pub/night club. I had to give it up... unsuprisingly. Now 7-8 pints and I'd be pissed. The first 2/3 seem to have the most effect though.

BTW for the JD drinkers here I drink it with blackcurrent mmm lovely.

I thought I was the only one who got hungover from the legs up.

Some drink: Legs don't work properly (I feel like I've been running).
Lots of drink: Legs don't work properly and stomach makes lots of rumbling (needs greasy fry)
Too much drink: Oh sweet Jebus. Leave me alone.

Anyway, back on topic:

Depends on what you mean by "handle".

After little or no food, a sixpack of Carlsberg and half a bottle of JD I redecorated DeadBankClerk's garden. :-)
OTOH on Wednesday night I had 5 cans of Dutch Gold and some Stolichnaya and I was reasonably sober. Clear head in the morning depsite only 3 hours sleep.

phoenix2181

On a usual night out I'd have bout 5 pints of larger & then I'd usually have about 10-12 vodka & 7up's..I'd be drunk but still well in control (not falling over or making a fool of myself) I'm 5'5 bit I'm slightly overweight

BabyEater

It depends what you mean by handle. If it is how much you can drink without falling over then i drank 13 pints of guiness and a litre bottle of bulmers between 13:00 and 22:30 So im told . I drank more at another session i was at it was from 12:00 to 2:00. The thing is its a bit of a waste going over 10 as i'm locked on 10 . I hardly ever take shorts just pints.

Space Coyote

For me it also depends on how long a session we're talking about. If it's an all-dayer/nighter like a wedding or sommit then I'd drink at least 10 pints of Bulmers and a truckload of all kinds of shorts. And I'd be still able to walk and do stuff after that. If it's a night out on the town then I'd drink about the same, but it would be in a much shorter amount of time so I'd get pister.

bug

Give me a bottle of Smirnoff and I'll be uncannily sober by the end of the bottle. Give me six pints and I'd be on my ear.
Strange really but I seem to have an immunity to shorts.
In my entire drinking life I have only collapsed drunk once and puked twice. For the moment I have cut down considerably.

ballooba

Pints::

4 Slightly slurring my words
5 Slightly slurring my words
6 Slightly slurring my words
7 Slightly slurring my words, completely rat arsed on the inside but seeming sober to the outside world.
8 Slightly slurring my words, completely rat arsed on the inside but seeming sober to the outside world.
9 Slightly slurring my words, completely rat arsed on the inside but seeming sober to the outside world.
10 Climbing the walls with my trousers on my head while doing a native american war chant.
11 lying in the gutter outside drinking drain water, having lost all major functions.

BLITZ_Molloy

I'd say about 15 pints is my limit. I usually drink 8 pints very quickly to get reasonably drunk on my limited 40euro night out budget.

Spirits don't get me that drunk really. I had 16 vodkas one night and I was pretty OK. My system was really poisoned the next day though. Sick as a dog.

dendenz

Molloys in Tallaght was done for refusing a 19 year old a bottle of Vodka

aliesneo

on an average nite out id have around 8 pints.
wudnt really be drunk. just merry.

Seaneh

I never drink to get drunk, normally i'll have like 4, and I'm still sobar.
But 2001, around christmass, people kept handing me drink at my local, and I kept taking them, to be polite and I had.

8 pint bottles.
4 Blue wkd.
5 blue AterShock.
3 Soddy and Red.
and then on to the night club.
Very stupid, I didnt drink for like 4 months after that.

seamus

Mine varies wildly depending on how long it's been since I last had a drink, how tired I am, etc etc. A normal night out will usually consist of 4/5 pints and two double vodkas. Or three triple vodkas (depending on how much money I have). Any more than that and I'm hungover till 8pm the next day.

Although my 21st at the start of the month was quite bizarre. 15 cans, a vodka and coke and half a bottle of Moet over 12 hours, and I was only mildly drunk. I assume it's because I was only drinking about one can an hour for the last 5 hours, and so, drinking myself sober.

I've had a half bottle of vodka before and done the whole slur your words, fall over and puke thing, so as I say, my tolerance varies wildly.

I'm quite good at gauging when to stop though. I'll usually stop when I'm singing in Bruxelles, or when my stomach begins to gurgle.

NeVeR

I'm 5"10 and about 14 stone and that has nothing to do with what i can drink

It's what i have to Eat before i drink, if i have a BIG meal, like the ones you get at a wedding or at christmas then i could drink about 8 pints and 12 vodka's and redbull maybe more i just said that amount,

But if i had nothing to Eat and went out on a empty... dame i could be pissed on 3-4 pints.


Size does matter aswell. But it's the food that gets me.
