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.
