chris.brock Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 I have always wondered the % of alcohol in US beer since they don't post it on the can/ bottle. I was at a restaurant where the menu stated the alcohol content. Everything was over 4%. Even stuff like Bud Lite, and 55 calorie beer was 4.2 and 4.4. I found this interesting, I always wondered if that stuff was 2% alcohol. cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris.brock Posted March 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 for $15 a case it can be near water, it's cheaper than water up here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lookinforwalleye Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 There`s alcohol in American beer! Who knew! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonny Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 American beer could be 2% and it would still be cheaper than ours for getting a buzz on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aplumma Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 Yup the beer is 2% if you add to much alcohol it spoils the taste of the beer. Art Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kickingfrog Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 My understanding was that the percent alcohol was measured differently. As to the quality??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregoire Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 I believe bud is considered a high alcohol beer in the states. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fisherman Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 And now we know why 'merican beer's cheaper, you have to drink so much more of it, they have to keep the price down. Otherwise there's be too many Billy Bobs not getting into trouble and nothing for the Leos to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pigeontroller Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 Yup, its scientifically proven that 'rednecks' like Billybob can't hold their liquor, if the US breweries but any more than 4% in the beer there'd be more rednecks in the streets shoot'n their doublebarrel shotguns than the police could handle!

Don't know about all the Redneck Billy Bob's but this one is a 35+ year volunteer firefighter and we are required to keg up when the call comes in... Remember....Budwieser is the KING of BEERS...

adempsey Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 I am pretty sure there are A LOT more brands of beer in the USA than in Canada. Most of the smaller breweries make some great beer. It's not just all Bud and Schlitz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Bacon Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 My understanding was that the percent alcohol was measured differently. As to the quality??? Yes, Americans measure their alcohol content by weight while we measure it by volume. They will get a lower figure (alcohol is lighter than water) for the same amount of alcohol. I can't answer about quality either ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not just all Bud and Schlitz. Actually the #1 beer sold in WNY is Labatts Blue Light...so much that Labatts has moved their corporate HQ here in Buffalo.
