The record in Europe for alcohol content in beer is "Snake Vemon", a Scottish brew with an alcohol content of 67.5 percent. Lots of places in the USA beer is limited to about 10%. Have to call it something else if over that. Ale, malt liquor, etc. |

But, you are right, it is illegal in eleven states. Legal in MA though. |

Not really, That is "80 proof whiskey" The ABV on dutch beer seems to go from the US standard of 4-6% up to as much as 15% but 10-12% seems to be the norm. https://www.beeradvocate.com/lists/nl/ Yeast pretty much stops working at 10-12 % so they must be spiking the beer or using some genetically modified yeast to get to 15%. Here is a pretty good list of US beers http://www.efficientdrinker.com/beer/ If you want more alcohol you need to buy malt liquor, really just the legal term for a malt beverage that is higher than some state limits for beer but some of these are really mixed drinks. (Grain alcohol, water and flavoring). Malt beverage is a catch all for something that is not wine and not distilled liquor. ....... I missed the decimal in 4.0 |

Free stuff is hard to resist. .... And when you rob Peter to pay Paul, you?ll always have Paul?s support. The 1% are robbing this country of everything. They are usually providing a service that people eagerly flock to. And you probably believe that ****, too. You don't think people want to buy things from Amazon (Bezos), run Windows PCs (Gates) , yack on Facebook (Zuckerberg) and look **** up on Google (Page/Brin)? Those are 5 of the 6 richest guys in the US. Buffett (#3) is just smart enough to get his money out in front of what people want and cash in on it. Amazon sells a huge variety of stuff, typically at lower prices than can be easily found elsewhere, and delivers to your door. Microsoft sells software for which there are many competing products. Zuckerberg gives his flagship product away and hopefully properly address FB's security and privacy issues. There are many competitors for google, and the apps are given away. That advertisers pay to be on most of these products is the price one pays for them, the same way one pays for commercial TV and radio. Free TV ends up costing the consumer more each year than pay TV, just in the price they pay for everything advertised on that TV. No one forces watchers of commercial TV to buy anything. But those watchers of commercial TV buy products. And those products pass along the costs of the company to operate. So who pays the $million bucks for s Super Bowl advert? Who paid for your salary when you worked for an Ad agency? Advertising creates and sustains demand for products and services. How enlightening of you to admit that. The owners of the agencies I worked for paid my salary. Actually advertising creates demand for a higher priced product that is usually no better than the unadvertised product. It is just about branding and hype. That is why Budweiser costs more than Busch but there is actually an imperceptible difference between them and certainly not two or three bucks a 12 pack difference in production cost. Actually, you don't know **** about advertising or marketing, but you think you do. I wouldn't know about the taste or ingredient similarities between Busch and Bud, as the three beers I might drink each summer aren't these brands. I still have two Coronas left over from last summer. I use Corona as the liquid base in which to steam hot dogs and sauerkraut. Let me get this right, You say I don't know **** then you admit you don't know anything about the examples I cited. I understand advertising is a good living for those in it but that cost gets added to the price of the products they promote. I've seen Bud and Busch TV and print ads, but I'm not much of a beer drinker. I know, however, that beer is a consumer product and the brands have many competitors. So, it is not unlike many other consumer products. My comment about your lack of knowledge of marketing and advertising stands. Your expertice comes from your gig as a jingle writer? I never had a "gig" as a jingle writer. I got to write and produce some jingles when I worked for a AAAA ad agency. The ad poeple I know in Chi and NY never heard of you. By the way, I never worked in Chicago or New York City as an ad person. That's obvious. -- x |

It's the same stuff here as there, and it's not 7%. "Budweiser has a 5 percent alcohol by volume. However, it’s typically measured by weight, and therefore will show as 4 percent by weight. Heineken shows a 5.4 percent alcohol by volume rating. That would translate into a 4.3 percent alcohol by weight. To the untrained or uneducated eye, that means Budweiser is weaker than Heineken by a full percent. When you work the math and calculate the alcohol using the same methods, it’s almost the same content by volume. That’s right, it’s only a measly .3 percent gain in alcohol content. So yes, for every three Heinekens you drink, you’re getting a full extra percent of alcohol over your Bud guzzling pals. That just makes you a hog. Nobody likes a hog." https://grub.gunaxin.com/american-be...-weaker/137389 |
