Is liquor or beer more "potent" (sp?) (meaning, more likely to get you drunk faster or more drunk ) when it's warm (such as room temp.) rather than cold or ice cold?

I know people love correcting ones questions on here. So just to clear this up, I may have worded and/or spelled things wrong in my question. Factual answers are needed, corrections or insults...not. Thanks.

I wasn't implying that the actual alcohol content would change I was asking for information as far as the body's reaction to the temperature of the alcohol intake. Does the warm temperature cause the body to react faster to the alcohol more or less than it would if it were cold?

It just appears to me when I drink warm liquor or warm beer I get drunk quicker than I would if it were cold. Could be my imagination. ...

The temperature of the beer does not affect its strength. And those who think that beer tastes bad when warm never paid more than a dollar for a beer. The good ones are served warm.

The alcohol content is the same regardless of temperature.

Some people believe that drinking beer cold as we do in this country can cause stomach problems. My thought is that I like beer cold, it tastes better that way and if it tastes better I will drink more.

i would say no the alcohol content doesn't change..actually i would think it would take longer to get drunk because it is warm, and tastes more disgusting, therefore you would not drink it as fast

On the subject of cold beer, any cold liquid partially damages tiny nerve endings that are in the body (I may not have worded that correctly, but look it up). When I say "partially damages" I mean it "numbs" them down or something. Again look this up it will explain better.
