I have heard that... I think mythbusters did something about this. I do not remember the results though....

No, I don't think so. I would think you'd get drunker quicker by guzzling in giant gulps.

No. I've drank alcohol through a straw many times and I don't think it was ever any different than drinking it without a straw.

I have no idea. I've never tried drinking beer through a straw. I do know that if I drink beer from a keg, I get drunk faster ... and usually have a headache in the morning. No keg for me.

You probably drink more faster with a straw.

Maybe, if you drink faster with the straw. It's all relative to volume consumed in a certain period of time. Nothing technically to do with a straw or not.

I think it's easier to drink more, faster than you expect.

Drunker?

I've heard of this, but I haven't noticed. Probably an old wives' tale.

No, but I can understand how this myth came about; people tend to drink faster through a straw. If you still drink at the same rate, it won't matter one way or the other. I can remember being told this when I was a teenager.

Yes. I have put many hours of study in this subject. I am convinced it is somewhat true. Tedious, but true.

Have you studied the guzzling gulps method? It works pretty well too.

I've only ever drunk alchol from a straw once and that was because I had bracers, unfortunately I didn't get drunk so probably not.
