Can you get drunk off of a drink thats 7% alcohol?

Question

if not ... how many of those would you need to have to get drunk?

Answer 1

you could, it would just be hard. and would have to drink several.

Answer 2

Yes and people do every day. Most beer contains 3-6% alcohol. Wine or most of them are 8%-14% then you have liqueurs that range from around 15 to 30 percent (some of them higher). Then liquor is everything above. Proof is the ABV (alcohol by volume)  ABV% times two. So if a liquor is 40% alcohol it is 80 proof. So 151 Rum is 75.5% alcohol.

But to answer your question yes you can. Most people would take more than one beverage at 7% but 3 or 4 in an hour would have most people leagly drunk.

Answer 3

idk maybe if you are a super light weight.

or you would have to just drink ALOT of it

Answer 4

Depends on the person and on the size of the glass!

A strength of 7% would be equivalent to strong cider (beer tends to be up to 5.5%, wine starts at around 9%).

A friend of mine was floored by just half a pint of 7% cider, but she's a very small woman who rarely drinks. A 6ft, 200 pound, male habitual drinker (such as, er, myself) would have no difficulty.

Answer 5

i suppose you could. Would take a lot of them, and you would probably have to be doing that on an empty stomach, but it would be difficult. Odds are you would vomit from the massive amounts of sugar and other junk in the drinks before you got drunk.

Answer 6

NO you would have to drink alot in order to get drunk if it's only 7%!!!!!

Answer 7

ummm OF COURSE YOU CAN .........

and you really wouldn't need THAT much ... so long as what you consummed was consummed quickly ...(RELATIVELY)

To those that have answered .. NO or It would be hard.. Check the alcohol levels in Beer.

EDIT: you know it is very scarey reading how little people know about alcohol.....

I am wondering if these people are young and inexperience drinkers.....

Answer 8

it all depends on your body weight and if your a light weight. for example, my sister weighs more than me but she gets drunk after 2 glasses of wine. I can only get drunk after about 6-7 shots of tequila. you would have to drink about 5 drinks of something that is 7% for most the people i know to get a little drunk, like comfortably drunk but you have to figure out your own limit really.

Answer 9

Of course you can!  That's quite high for beer or malt liquor.

Answer 10

Drink 6 bottles of Becks beer then you do know it.
