If it has been 19+ hours since I drank any alcohol at all will I fail my urine test for alcohol?

Depends on your weight and to some degree whether you are male or female but the rule of thumb is:

The ethanol disposal rate in a 150-pound human is about 0.5 ounce of ethanol per hour, which corresponds to 12 ounces of beer (1 can), 4 ounces of wine (1 glass), or once ounce of hard liquor (one shot). So, depending on how much you've had to drink, you can calculate how long it will take to clear the alcohol so that it doesn't show up in a urine screen.

OK - so if I understand you correctly then if I had 5 drinks last night and the last one around 11pm and all 5 of them were 1 shot drinks then it would take at least 10 hours to show clear with just a standard urnine alcohol test?
