Ya know, since I started homebrewing about a year ago, I've been drinking substantially more. I generally have 1-2 beers a day, whereas in my pre-homebrewing days I had 1-2 drinks a week. I figured since I've been drinking more, I'd develop a tolerance. But it seems my genetics are stacked against me. I've always been a lightweight and drinking more hasn't seemed to have helped. It takes about 25 ounces for me to get a solid buzz going, less if my stomach is empty, a bit more if I've just eaten a lot. I'm not sure what the deal is, I've always wanted to increase my tolerance since it's far too easy for me to get in trouble with just a few drinks... And the odd thing is, I'm 6' tall and 200 lbs. Sometimes when I drink enough that the charts say I'm legally ok to drive, I feel pretty drunk...
Ah well, it saves me money at least
