theres the breathalyzer and other tests that test for alcohol in your urine, that can only test for a day but the new one they have is the ETG test (Ethyl Glucuronide) which is an enzyme that your body produces after metabolizing alcohol and thats supposed to be in your system for 3 days but i have passed tests less then 24 hours after drinking 3 40s of 8.1% malt liquor using lots of water and coffee and maby some energy drinks and asparagus for color.

If I drank beer on Friday night and have to take a urine test on Saturday will I test positive for alcohol?
Most drug tests do not test for alcohol. The most common drug test, the so-called "five panel" or DOT panel only tests for the presence of Marijuana, Cocaine, Amphetamines, PCP, and Opiates. A special test has to be ordered in order to test for alcohol specifically. It also depends on what sort of urine alcohol testing is being performed. If the test is a simple urine alcohol test, then the answer to the question is dependent on how much you drank and how long it's been since you quit. If the test is an EtG (ethyl glucuronide) test, however, there is little room for escape.

You drunk about 2 cups of moet rose on saturday130-200amand will be etg tested on monday morning what are the odds of you passing or failing this test or will it even be seen in your system?
You could pass the test, with luck, but the odds are against it. ETG testing does not test for alcohol. It test for an alcohol metabolite that is present in the body for about 80 hours after alcohol is ingested. It is not directly related to the amount of alcohol, which is why it is only used for compliance testing, not for blood alcohol level testing. Since ETG tests are compliance tests, ANY detectable amount is considered to be a fail.
Can they test your pee for alcohol?
The most common tests are immunoassays that test for either alcohol or its metabolites. Blood tests are another, ordinarily used after traumatic events such as traffic crashes. Other tests, normally used for confirmation, involve photometric analysis of either urine or blood. The over-the-counter tests, and those used by most screening agencies, are immunoassays, where antibodies sensitive to the chemical being tested for are embedded in the test strip. Their reaction causes the color change.

What can cause a urine test to be positive for alcohol when alcohol wasn't consumed?
We are guessing that you took an EtG test, which tests for a metabolite of alcohol called ethyl glucuronide. You do not have to consume alcohol in order to test positive. The EtG remains in your system in detectable amounts for up to three days, and exposure to small amounts of alcohol in the hours before the test can cause positives. That includes after shave, mouthwash, and some cosmetics and lotions. For that reason, most experts recommend that EtG screens not be used for non-therapeutic tests. It is such an easy tool, however, that many agencies continue to use them as they are nearly impossible to scam. If it was not an EtG test, then someone was consuming alcohol. End of story.
