Average here, 1 beer is 150 calories. Half of that is carbs and half is alcohol. The body cannot store calories from alcohol so that leaves us 75 calories from carbs. A pound of fat takes 3500 calories to make. So if he does no exercise ever and has a 2000 calorie/day diet minus the beer, the max he could gain is a pound a week. Not even likely since the body revs up metabolism when it needs to eliminate alcohol so part of those carbs are used for that.
IIN to drink, alone, 12 beers while playing Call of Duty Black ops 3?
