Two day alchoholic Ginger Beer & Lemonade

I'm having a party on Friday and was thinking of making a massive bucket of ginger beer to get things moving.

I'm wondering if, as a newb who was never brewed anything, if this is too ambitious? Will i be able to get the alcohol content up sufficiently in 6 days (I want it as strong as possible) and will it be fizzy if served straight from a bucket?

If you strain it, then just bung it in a bucket for a few days, it'll probably get to 4ish % (at a guess). Poss 5.

There will be no carbonation (the constrained nature of a pop bottle means that when the CO2 gets too much for the bottle it is forced into the liquid, hence bubbles), but it'll still be more than drinkable.
