What's moderate? 4 beers every night?

It's literally defined in the paper as 1-2 drinks a night, 3-7 nights a week. So 3-14 drinks a week, but no more than 2 a day.

I'll be having one beer only. From a gallon sized bottle.

*Andre the Giant nods in agreement.*

While there's a definite rule for what's considered 1 drink (.6 fluid ounces of pure alcohol, regardless of the drinks alcoholic concentration), I doubt many people who responded to the questionnaires in these studies are aware of that.

That's a lot of drinking.

Not really. That's a glass of wine with dinner, or a cocktail or beer after work. As with anything, the dose makes the poison, and that's a pretty small dose.

A week of 2 drinks a night is roughly the same as binging 14 in one single night to your health.
