2. These are standard drink sizes. Of course, five ounces of a dessert or fortified wine contains more alcohol as does a higher content beer or ale or a distilled spirit higher than the typical 80 proof. The equivalent sizes for these drinks would differ from those of standard drinks, a fact that drinkers shoudl keep in mind. (Carrol, C. R. Drugs in Modern Society. Boston, Massachusetts: McGraw-Hill, 2000, p. 77) Because standard drinks are equivalent in alcohol content, it is misleading to refer to spirits as "hard liquor," which implies that drinking distilled spirits leads more quickly or easily to intoxication than other alcohol beverages.
