I am on the low 2 end these days. I drink about once a week and then rarely more than a few beers.
Could I have gone deeper? At university I was a solid 4, same during my years working in London. I learned how manage the regular hangovers. I could see chronic drinking happening to me so I keep no alcohol at home other than the obligatory bottle of vodka in the freezer. It is a cultural thing for me, a fridge without a bottle of vodka in the freezer is fundamentally empty.
I grew up in a culture where the dinner drink was vodka and at about age 14 you could take part. The dinner vodka required guests, but that happened often enough.
Somewhere between one and two, myself. I stopped making beer and cider because it was a lot of work and expense to make something I wasn't interested in consuming.
