- CA single 12-ounce can of beer Correct
Why
One standard drink holds about the same amount of alcohol no matter its form: 12 ounces of beer, 5 ounces of wine, or a 1.5-ounce shot of 80-proof liquor. Replacing liquor with wine or beer will not make you less impaired, since each standard drink raises your BAC by about the same amount.
