I am an alcoholic who built his "tolerance" over years. As mentioned above, DO NOT build your tolerance. If you want to lose your inhibitions (sic), look inward. I am still a practising alcoholic, and my life is spiralling steadily downward. All macho bullshit aside, the fact that I can down 30 beers is not good, it is a sickness, not "cool". I can understand why you ask the question you did, but believe me, tolerance to alcohol for those of you not afflicted should not be a concern. Enjoy your ability to put it down, as I cannot.
