How strong are these to a seasoned drinker? I mean, i cant see it being more special than having a bottle of wine, which wont get me that drunk at all.
My tolerance (which I am ashamed of, but trying to give you the most accurate info as the the intensity of 4 lokos).
Beer: I would drink (12) 16 oz beers to get drunk. That ads up to 16 regular sized beers. I would bring an 18 pack for myself to parties, then end up drinking some other stuff in drinking games etc....
Wine: A bottle of wine wouldn't get me that drunk.
Liquor: 3/4 of a 750ml bottle of 80 proof vodka was the norm for me.
I never vomited from the above drinks, nor did I mix them.
Now with 4 lokos, 3 would get me trashed. I would remember getting to the 3rd, and then wake up with it empty, and then would vomit. I also got kinda angry on them. I blacked out and either pissed or puked on a chair in my house (family memeber told me the next day).
So if you have a tolerance, 2 can get you rediculously wasted. 3 is close to blackout. I think a lot of people get into trouble with them because the difference between 1 and 2 of them is so severe. 1 gets you drunk, 2 wasted, and 3 is blackout... Not to mention the stomach problems. I wouldn't do more than pre-gaming with one of those if I had to.
edit: attempt 4, I would say it is pretty similar to a bottle of wine, but like I said the difference between having 1 or 2 is so severe, just like the difference between having 1 or 2 bottles of wine is big.
