I know you mean like a six-pack of beer cans but for a moment I had the mental image of beer sold in tetra-paks and I really don’t want to know what kind of unholy concoction would warrant that kind of packaging.
Yeah, in NZ we often use reusable wooden 12 pack crates of 745mL (a bit over 26 Oz) reusable bottles, but we also have the corrugated cardboard boxes of 20 330mL or 440mL cans.
It does come from birth though? Genetics play a huge part role in alcohol processing
Practice doesn’t make you metabolize the alcohol much faster, it makes you better at functioning at a higher BAC, it increases tolerance not metabolism
Yeah, obviously. Do you think your body is at maximum alcohol detox levels at all times? Of course not, that’s one part of the detox pathway that fires up when you start drinking
How long do you think enzymes stick around? Do you think they pile up?
Their expression is generally linked to presence of a trigger and limited by their byproducts. So you’ll produce more of them when exposed to alcohol, then max out based on how quickly the byproducts can be moved
Again, how quickly you process alcohol is mostly genetics
They do, but nobody’s sinking 210ml of pure ethanol and blowing that low without either being the size of a house or putting in some serious practice. That’s the same as drinking 2 entire bottles of wine in 2 hours.
It’s the practice they were talking about with “insight”.
Seven to twelve
Per sitting.
Well, I guess we now have some uncomfortable insight into your home life…

They’re Australian so I’m pretty sure they mean a 20- or 24- pack, something like this:
That’s exactly what I mean down to the beer and all hahaha
Can’t say no to a tinnie of VB!
“stubbies” lol
That’s the type of bottle. If you’re in the other hemisphere you might have seen Red Stripe in stubbies.
Good point. I never think of those because we use bulky reusable plastic crates where I live.

Or they are just able to tolerate more and are bigger than you.
I’ve drank a 6 pack of 10% and blown a .06 in 2 hours.
Besides size, that looks of tolerance is exactly the insight. It doesn’t come from birth.

I don’t know how much faster it gets, but consuming alcohol increases the expression of alcohol dehydrogenase, so you metabolise it faster.

K
You don’t think people have different metabolic tolerance and processing rates?
🤯

Okay, I guess I’m a super hero and so is the rest of my family 🤷♂️
I guess you and your family have practice.
