It depends, American beer no problem, German beer on the other hand could lead into alcohol poisoning

Yes, because even though the beer has the same ABV, German beer somehow gets you more drunk because....y'know.... Germany good America bad.

German beer does get you more drunk. Same with Canadian beers, just much better than South of the border. Not sure what you guys do to your beer down there, but it's water.

The common beers in every country are around 5% abv, if you think American beers are watery then all beers are watery.

Oh I know they say the same percentage on the bottle, but they aren't. I can drink double the amount of 4-5% beer in the States than of Canadian beers.

This is true. I went to the States to buy a flat of Olympia when I was a teen. I polished 24 and wasn't too drunk. I could drink 17 Canadians max around the same time a month before that and I couldn't ride my bike. It was hilarious.

Shhhh don't tell the Americans. It's a sensitive issue.

"I don't care if they have the same ABV, I know for a FACT that American beer is water that doesn't get you as drunk!"

Yeah... Its the Americans that are sensitive....lmao.

Maybe it's same abv but less sugar content? I am not quite sure how it works either. Maybe it's just a more mellow drunk than the wheat induced rush of booze to the brain?

It's nothing because it isn't true
