Dealing with a DUI

So, how does one actually go about calculating an expected blood alcohol percentage based on how much you've been drinking and the specific ABV of your beverage?
And does that number actually stay consistent, or does it swing wildly from one person to the next?

If a direct calculation like that isn't even a thing, is there some other way to figure it out?

If an exact calculation isn't possible, is there any kind of formula at all?

Hmmmm. I remember seeing an app on a buddy's phone once where you just plug in the drink type, how much you had, and your body weight. It gives you a rough estimate of what your blood alcohol level will be and when it might peak... I don't know... probably worth a quick search online...

It definitely varies by individual. It all comes down to body mass and liver function.😁

Exactly. When you're dealing with "seasoned" drinkers, the primary factor becomes how much their liver has already been primed. If those enzymes have been constantly induced by regular consumption, then total body mass doesn't carry nearly as much weight as people think. To put it in perspective: a 130-pound guy might actually process alcohol more efficiently than a 200-pound guy if he’s "trained" for it, if you know what I mean.
