how do we start?

My brother has always been a drinker but recently his daughter found out that he is going in the garage and drinking large amounts of vodka regularly. alone, and hiding it. on one weekend, he completely consumed one of those large bottles with the handles on the side! the strange thing is that he is totally functional ... no apparent hangovers, works hard every day. is this even possible? anyway, the amounts that he is drinking are astounding and we (his siblings) just don't know what to do. we can certainly approach him about it, but we know he will say its none of our business and that he does not have a problem. he is very against any medical intervention, for anything, even a tooth problem. we are at wits end, because we just can not think of how to turn this around. he is in his early '50s. any help appreciated.
