Bass Ale is about twice as strong as beer, so wiping out a six pack of Bass is like scarfing down 2 six-packs of crappy American beer. If she chugged it in one sitting her BAC would be over 0.2, solidly drunk unless she had a strong built-up resistance.

Anyway, I thought it was interesting that the title of that book is similar to an expression in AA about drinking: “One is too many, and a thousand is not enough.”

I wonder if she heard that in a meeting before she fell off the wagon, and it stuck in her head.

Avr beer is 5% equivalent to .6oz hard liquor. I doubt most alcoholics are beer drinkers.

Bass ale is 5.1%. Bass draft is 4.4% similar to Coors lite at 4.2%. I have drunk a lot of coors lite and a lot of Bass ale. There is very little difference in the effect. Some of the new craft ales in the 6.5 and plus range will give you a buzz.
