Hi. How much alcohol does it take for you to get drunk. Well not drunk exactly but how much does it take for you to be satisfied and to stop or slow down drinking. Id like peoples info. Also explain what drink it is you like. Lager, Bitter, vodka etc.

During the summer 3 pints of cider is enough sadly :( however during uni when i become immune again 8 largers or 5 ciders, chuck in a few alchopops as well.
 
about 7pints

edit: ive ended up hating lager now... im on to ales, anything smooth. i find lager too sharp, if i was to have lager it would be grolsch

p.s. probably hate lager because im used to £1 pints of fosters and carling.. eugh
 
slow down? I don't until the money runs out :(
Also never stay on the same drink. Usually start of on cider, then move to mixers with shots mixed up in-between.
 
Lager will hav me pretty done by 6 pints, but vodka i can quite happily drink a whole litre of it. If however, i drink a litre of vodka, and then sniff some lager i will die :p. Varies a lot but anywhere from 35-45 units tends to do me well, thats with no/little mixing eg 2 pints then vodka mixers.
 
Depends entirely on how tired I am, how much I have eaten etc...
Sometimes I'll be hammered on 3 pints whereas on others I could stomach pints in the double figures and still remain fairly legible.

Tonight, for example I have a bottle of Buckfast and 4x bottles of Magners (330ml) for my carry out before I go out, then I'll probably be on the whiskey when I hit the club. God knows how many of those I would have but it wouldn't take too many to get me rightly airlocked after the carry out:o

I cannot handle vodka at all. A couple of vodkas will have me on my ass singing hymns to the lamp post.
 
5 pint of Guinness and I start to think this is going to be painful in the morning. Dont really drink alcohol these days.
 
I don't slow down when I drink, if I'm nearing my limit I just keep drinking 'til I puke. It's a bit sad actually :o

Nowadays it's only about 3/4 pints to have me properly swaying but that's because I haven't drunk much in ages.

:edit:I'm a cider man by the way.

I used to be a sissy girl and buy Smirnoff Ice and other girly fluff but I got fed up with the terrible value for money.
 
5 pints max of real ale eg Old Speckled Hen and if I had anymore I would vomit.
It isn't often I have a session but I do have one bottle of real ale a day to keep me regular.
 
Generally, on a weekend, I'll drink 5 or 6 pints (K1664, Guinness, Stella or San Miguel depending on where I am) from about 8 'til 11, then drink spirits and mixers (JD and coke, Vodka RB etc.) for the rest of the night to keep 'topped up'. Probably have about 4 or 5 those before stumbling home at 2am and having a couple of pints of water before bed.
 
I have about 3 cans of lager a night, and usually about 8 cans maybe at the weekend. Or 10+ pints and some shots if it's a night out with the lads!

I aim to be not drinking in the week by christmas... but I love a cool one after work! :(
 
my level goes up and down.. a couple of years ago (first year uni) i could drink forever and remember more-or-less everything that went on in the night [aboout half litre of spirit - vodka, bacardi]..

but now, i started getting drunk more quicker and easier [after a 4-5 drinks]..

anyway i've stopped drinking til xmas so sober nights for me :d (including tonight which runs into my 22nd bday)
 
About 6 pints of real ale will do me justice. Then i seem to get this wonderful idea and drink a few double vodka red bulls (i hate vodka).

4 big bottles of Magners or Bulmers and im a gibbering wreck.
 
I'm a real lightweight and also have the dreaded Asian Flush when I drink.If people don't know what the term Asian Flush means,it means your face goes red when you drink.
I use to be a lager drinker,drinking mainly Buds,3 or 4 bottles of those will make me tipsy and with cider maybe about 4 cans till I'm drunk. Nowadays I drink Vodka and Coke as I find that Vodka doesn't make my face go red unless I'm drinking a lot.I can drink about 4 Double Vodka and Cokes before I feel the effect.Downside to drinking Vodka and Coke is that you look like a real sissy:(
 
A lot, depends how long i'm drinking, but i can finish off 15-16 pints if its a long night. I maintain my drunken state all through the night by pacing myself, spent a long time perfecting the art.

I drink most things, the only thing i stay away from is white cider. And alcopops are strictly a breakfast drink.
 
Last weekend was something like 3 pints, 6/7 vods and lemo and 12/15 sour shots then i ran out of money. I was pretty hammered by then (Stumbling whilst walking at points) but would have carried on if i had the money
