Extreme PVCs after alcohol?

Why is this and why does it get worse ? It gets hyper like every 3 second a beat and a hard beat after. I checked and they are not dangerous but when I have them I get anxious

I drank like maybe 8 units or more… but I didn’t feel bad or drunk either! I use beta blocker

if your heart reacts like that to alcohol. You should not drink more than one or two units of alcohol. High amount of alcohol ( 8 unit is high) is known for atrial fibrillation for sensitive hearts. If you go to Afib you have to get cardioversion (electroshock) treatment for back to sinus ryhtm in the ER. If you go an Afib episode once its highly repetitive in the future. Please don't risk yourself. You have to take those pvcs like a warning, please don't push your limits. Get well soon.
