Abstract:Highlights
A substantial minority of the ambient population in the night-time economy had engaged in side-loading.
Unlike pre-drinking, side-loading was not statistically significantly associated with greater levels of intoxication (as measured by breath alcohol content).
Side-loading might not be used as a method for drinkers to enhance intoxication, but instead as a means of sustaining a target level of intoxication.
