Especially if it was something like bud light or miller light. You can drink a 12 pack of that and still not get buzzed.
Alcohol can stay in your system for 6 or more hours. Five beers in a 2 hour period and the average person is going to be pushing .08 BAC hard. That's the legal limit in most places.
