The degree of ancient liquor was within 10 degree, and most liquor was around 18 degree. However, some liquor with poor quality is only 3-5 degrees, so people in ancient times drank a lot, because this liquor is equivalent to these beers in modern society. For a good drinker, even if you drink a whole case of wine, you can get it. But the main purpose of ancient people drinking is not to eat and drink, but to keep fit, because wine can promote people's blood circulation.

On TV screens, we often see these ancient Jianghu people. They often drink in large bowls and eat meat in large chunks. Some people even blow directly into the jar, which is undoubtedly an exaggeration for us. You know, in contemporary society, the degree of these liquors is generally between 40 degrees and 50 degrees. It is remarkable that a person can drink one or two kilograms of liquor with this degree, but in ancient times, they drank far more than two kilograms, and some of them had at least 10 kilograms. For example, and, the two heroes in the Water Margin, often like to drink in a big bowl. Song Wu also made a pioneering effort to fight tigers in Jingyanggang because he drank a lot of wine.

In fact, after some scientific explorations, it was found that the alcohol they drank was very low. In ancient China, most alcohol was brewed mainly with barley, wheat and some yeast. The wine brewed in this way is called grain wine, and their alcohol fermentation rate is very strong, so the alcohol content is relatively low.

This situation did not change until the end of the Song Dynasty, because at that time we got a distillation technology, that is, a purification technology, from the northern minorities in the inland of the Central Plains. This can improve the alcohol content, and the alcohol content will gradually increase. Until today's society, people's alcohol content is generally high, and people who can drink one or two kilograms are already very powerful.
