    Whether EtG is detected is a flip of the coin. You are in the time range where it could go either way. How long did it take you to drink the 2 beers?

    Based on your size and amount consumed (1.6 standard drinks US) checked against g/kg of body weight > .29 g/kg and the clearance time for EtG ranges from 5 - 30 hours (both studies use 100 ng cutoff). Most show clearance under 24 hours but you are right at that limit and these tests cannot be timed with that level of precision.

    Here is an individual that passed at 20 hours, same consumption, as reported on this site:

    20 hours from last drink, 2 Lite-beers (4.1% abv) M-51, 225 lb. 500 cutoff. >LINK

    Keep in mind that EtG production and clearance varies from one individual to another.

    Please let us know the results.
