What else is in there? Did you drink coffee beforehand, pop?
And, what's the APV you're looking at?

At the end of the day, alcohol is a depressant, so, if you've had any sort of upper beforehand (mostly caffeine) you won't feel the effects of alcohol until it hits you like a train. Caffeine is in your system for a full 6 hours as well, so it depends on when it happens.

oh wow, you brought some good insight that i was unaware of.

i drink a lot of coffee and caffeine related beverages daily. i don't drink alcohol daily however. i typically fill a 12 pot worth of coffee and drink 4 cups of that worth three times throughout the day in the cup i drink out of.

i do definitely find it strange that cans effect me more so over glass or plastic bottles by the same APV value. like natty daddy's are 8.0% 25 ounces each. this olde english plastic bottle is the same exact volume, except its 42 ounces, only 8 lower than two cans of the brand i prefer, yet i feel nowhere near the way i do from that brand.

its always been like that, however i thought i might just give it a try because this particular brand of the olde english reached the same volume as two cans of Natty's, just 8 ounces lower. however i could feel while i was drinking it that i wasn't going to reach that desired effect and was drinking it faster than i normally drink because i wasn't feeling like it was doing anything.
