Apparently it's drinking a shot of beer every minute for an hour. I, er, don't see the challenge.Ptolemy_Banana wrote:What's a power hour?

Ah, I've done that. It's surprisingly effective given that you're not drinking that much. Also take into account that British shot measurements are tiny.Blade Azaezel wrote:Apparently it's drinking a shot of beer every minute for an hour.

That's because a standard shot is roughly 1.5 ounces, and 12 ounced is the standard recommendation as a serving for beer. They say men, if they drink in moderatiin, should drink at most two servings. You barely went over 5 servings.

A power hour is usually around 7-8 drinks, actually. 1.5oz x 60mins = 90 oz/12oz(per beer) = 7.5 beers.
It usually rounds up to 8 because when people pour out a shot and it feels like there's not much left in their can or bottle they chug the rest, or they take a few sips after initially opening a can as pouring that first shot can be tricky at times.

I thought a shot was 1 ounce?
And 8 beers in an hour sounds like a lot.

Most shot glasses, at least in the US, are 1.5 oz as a single serving of liquor is considered to be 1.5 oz.
Per the NIAAA:
"In the United States, one "standard" drink contains roughly 14 grams of pure alcohol, which is found in: 12 ounces of regular beer, which is usually about 5% alcohol. 5 ounces of wine, which is typically about 12% alcohol. 1.5 ounces of distilled spirits, which is about 40% alcohol."

It was somewhat effective, and shots are 1.5 ounces. 7.5 beers is the correct amount. A couple of the guys kept going to 100 shots. I went to take a piss and get some air. One guy fell out, but he almost never drinks.
Note: some people drink piss beer like Natural Light. Yuck.
