That depends upon the size of the man, his rate of metabolizing alcohol in the liver, and his level of tolerance (based upon his amount and frequency of daily drinking). This can vary greatly. For an Asian male with little alcohol dehydrogenase anzyme, as little as 1/2 oz. of any hard liquor could be severely intoxicating. For a caucasian male, 275 lbs. in weight, with a regular habit of two fifths per day, it may require almost an entire fifth (e.g. of vodka) imbibed over a two hour period of time, for him to be legally intoxicated.

How many drinks does it take for someone that weighs 60 pounds to be considered legally drunk?
Depends on the units of alcohol in the drink, and also the quantity.
You weigh 175 how much alcohol would make you legally drunk?
It all depends on what you call legally drunk. I have talked with police officers and it is all their discretion. If you are being obnoxious and had even one drink they can tag you for drunkenness. As for any other definitions of being legally drunk I do not know and think it would depend on the context. Drunk driving in many provinces and states is 0.08. Using the "Rule of Eights", which is 8 times proof ounces divided by weight in pounds for a normal male, a 175 pound male can have 1.75 ounces of alcohol to achieve 0.08 BAC. That translates to about three beers at 5%. Some states have an additional limit of 0.04 BAC for "impaired", which translates to 1.5 beers. For females, change the 8 to a 10 to account for the slightly higher body fat ratio of a female.
