There is some genetic stuff with asians and alcohol, but I think its only for digesting. Some asians turn red when they break down alcohol, and most asians can't break it down as well in general. We don't get more drunk, we just get worse hangovers (tho I'm only a little asian, I still get terrible hangovers). I can drink alot though, don't get sloppy till about 12-14 drinks.
