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.

1.50 oz at 40% equals about 1.00 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.

Laird's Old Apple Brandy 7 1/2 Background

Laird's Old Apple Brandy 7 1/2 is a 100% straight apple brandy from Laird & Company. Official Laird material says it was introduced in 1964, aged 7 1/2 years in charred oak barrels, and bottled at 80 proof, or 40% ABV. DUI Professional classifies it as Spirits / Brandy and stores a 1.5 fl oz serving for dose modeling.

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 1.50 oz reference serving at 40% ABV contains 0.60 oz ethanol, equal to 1.00 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.
