BAC Simulation Context
DUI Professional uses drink profiles as structured inputs for alcohol dose, absorption timing, and elimination modeling. This profile describes the concentration and reference serving volume used when a full drink is added to a simulation.
6.00 oz at 16.50% equals about 1.65 U.S. standard drinks because one U.S. standard drink contains 0.6 fl oz ethanol. Review how these values are used in BAC simulation software or compare it against the full drink database.

Carpano Antica Formula Vermouth Background
Carpano Antica Formula Vermouth is a sweet Italian vermouth associated with the Carpano tradition and Fratelli Branca Distillerie. Official Carpano material identifies Antica Formula as first invented in 1786 in Turin by Antonio Benedetto Carpano and preserved by Fratelli Branca; the product page lists 16.5% ABV. DUI Professional stores it as Wine / Vermouth with a 6 fl oz reference serving so BAC calculations use an explicit source-backed ABV and volume.
Professional Use
- Compare drink assumptions during DUI and criminal-defense case review.
- Document beverage concentration and volume used in BAC simulation reports.
- Review drinking-pattern inputs with forensic toxicology and expert-witness workflows.
- Support training examples for alcohol absorption, elimination, and retrograde extrapolation.
Standard Drink Math
A U.S. standard drink uses 0.6 fl oz of pure ethanol. This profile's 6.00 oz reference serving at 16.50% ABV contains 0.99 oz ethanol, equal to 1.65 standard drinks.
That ethanol dose is the starting point for BAC simulation software; consumed fraction, timing, absorption, elimination, and body-composition assumptions are modeled separately. Compare other entries in the drink database or use the related profiles below.
