Will I pass an ETG test after drinking one beer

Asked Jan 29, 2010, 08:28 PM — 7 Answers
I drank one beer at 8PM with dinner and thereafter started flushing my system with water after I knew I messed up. I got up and went to the gym for 2 hours. Drank liter after liter of water and green tea. I took vitamin B and C and creatine (sp) to hopefully combat the diluted urine. I pissed at 4:00 PM the following day mid stream urine. I did all I could - do you think this will come back positive or negative? Concerned and sweating it. Last time I do this to myself.

I am healthy, 185 pounds, in good shape and had not had a drink for 5 months. Wouldn't you know it the night I do it my random color comes up the next day. Just my luck.

The general rule for alcohol metabolism is 1 drink per hour. One beer should be metabolized within one hour. Allow two to be safe. I'm sure, by now, you have your "negative" test results.

Boomer. I did pass it. But you can see what I did. I went crazy on precations. Just make sure. The breathalizer test is not even close to an etg. Not even close. I think two beers I woulda been busted. Safe and sound now.

No it is not the same. While one (1) 5% beer will be metabolized in under 2 hours leaving no detectable alcohol, the metabolite EtG will remain detectable in urine for about 20 hours.

I made the same mistake recently and had a beer socially with friends. My color came up the next day unexpected and I panicked. I starteded pounding the water. I stopped about five hours beforehand. I received a dilute and had to spend two days in jail and start the year long program over again. I need to be able to travel for work, so this situation is costing me. Be careful.
