Best Answer

One beer contains approximately 2 units of alchohol (volume x percentage alcohol / 1000) (500ml for a proper pint x 4% / 1000). The body is able to metabolize approximately 1 unit of alcohol per hour (very different from individual to individual since it depends on genetics, age, weight, etc). So, 8 beers x 2 units = 16 units = 16 hours

I would figure about 2 hours a shot, drinking water after your finished drinking will help flush out the alcohol, and keep you hydrated. Also everyone would have a different opinion on this.

How long does alcohol stay in your system if you have been drinking everyday for thirty years?

It depends on the amount of alcohol in the blood. The liver metabolizes alcohol at the rate of about 1 shot of 80-proof per hour, so if you've had 8 shots in three hours you will have about another five hours to go. That's for a drinker with a healthy liver. If you have been drinking every day for thirty years, yours is probably in pretty bad shape, and it would take longer to clear the alcohol from your system.
