I got a drug test coming up, and on the list of drugs they are checking for alcohol is on the list.Which is extremely weird. And i did have 2 bottle coors lites two nights ago. So just wondering how long before it leaves your system?

You are fine. Alcohol leaves the system at about 1 drink per hour. So if you drank two beers, it would be two hours to be out of your system. They are basically testing if you are drunk at the drug test.
1/2 an ounce of alcohol per hour. Do the math of how much u drank
either way, dont worry, u would have to drink a whole keg to still have beer in u
I dont know how they would test for alcohol it doe snot show up in a urine test at all, the only way it shows up is through a blood test but they would have to test you while your drinking because alcohol leaves the bloodstream very quickly it is one thing thats very hard to detect. So you will be fine…I drug tests people everyday in the rehab I work in.
The rate your body metabolizes alchohol assuming you’re an average adult male is about 1 oz per hour. The great thing about alchohol, unlike drugs, is that their is no lingering metabolite that can be measure for days, a 12 oz beer has approximately one oz. of alchohol so drinking two beers, your body would be completely clean in about 2 hours.
