I didn't ask anything.
I was making fun of the fact that you thought no one else could understand 20 bottles in 7 days requires 1 day to be 2 beers.
My 6 year old grandson would be able to do this math.

In any case, it is a lot, though is still considered moderate drinking, but healthwise even low amounts of alcohol affect not just the liver, but also the brain, gut, pancreas, lungs, cardiovascular system, immune system, and more. So no to al anon, but yes to having him do some reading up on his health risks.

If there are 20 bottles at the end of the week, it's 3 6 days a week and 2 1 day.

Wow, you're some kind of math savant!


And you apparently can't read. OP said he drinks 20 bottles a week. You had to ask how many days it was 2 versus 3 bottles, but the answer was right there, apparently for anyone to see it.

+1 Even three of these a night isn't as much alcohol as a double or triple IPA which a lot of people like. Drinking every single night is not a great habit to get into but this is the equivalent of a glass of wine, alcohol-wise.


No, he is having the equivalent of almost 3 glasses of wine per night:
A 5 oz. glass of 12% APV wine is "one drink."
A 12 oz. 5% APV beer is also "one drink"
His 12 oz. light beer is 4.5% APV, so each one is only a smidge less than a regular 12 oz. beer or a glass of wine, more like two 5oz. glasses of riesling at 5% or one Prosecco at 11% APV per beer.

IPAs are 7-10% so by the ounce "one drink" is ~6 oz for the higher volume. Note also, most people who think they are having 'a glass' of wine are often having 1.5 to 2 per pour, as few people pour 5 oz. -- restaurants routinely ask if you want 6 or 9 oz so one glass is always more than "one drink" health wise.


Yawn

That could definitely be part of it.
Perhaps OP should have a couple beers with him to loosen up and they might respark it up.

This is low class and trashy if nothing else. Tell him to buy good wine and a wine stopper to seal and finish bottles the next night. Life is short. Drink good stuff.

He is drinking half a bottle of wine a night. Doesn't want to but wine because he might finish most or all the bottle.
It is to relax buzzy or not.

However, I just can’t handle much alcohol so I switched from my fancy Belgiums to Corona which is more water. There is no way that I could drink two glasses of wine more than one day or two days in a row.


The alcohol content of two 12 oz Coronas (types vary from 4 to 4.8% apv) is the same as two 5 oz. glasses of 12% apv wine.

Who pours 5 oz glasses of wine? Absolutely nobody.

He claims it's basically a diet beer and doesn't even give him a buzzy intoxicated feeling. He says he'd prefer to unwind and drink wine with dinner but I do not consume alcohol, so he buys this specific diet beer instead. By the end of every week there's a bag full of nearly 20 beer bottles and it makes me feel like he has a problem.

Michelob Ultra has an Alcohol By Volume (ABV) of 4.2%. 95 calories and 2.6 grams of carbs per 12 oz. serving.
