True
The alcohol in beer, wine and liquor is the same kind and standard drinks of beer, wine and liquor have the same amount of alcohol (.6 oz). They are completely equal to a breathalyzer.
A standard serving of beer (12 oz.) or spirits (one and one-half oz.)
Sure you can. It still has the same amount of alcohol, it will just taste bad. That is, unless, flat beer is your thing.
No it is proportional. If the beer is 4% alcohol, then the 12 oz would have .48 oz alcohol and the 16 oz would have .64 oz alcohol.
The AMOUNT of alcohol in the standard beer and wine is the same. The percentage of the volume is different. See the chart below. Type of drink Volume of serving (in ounces) Concentration of alcohol expressed as a percent Concentration of alcohol expressed as a percent in decimal form Total amount of alcohol (in ounces) Beer12 5 0.05 0.6 Wine5 12 0.12 0.6 Hard liquor1.5 40 0.40 0.6
The alcohol content of wine and beer varies widely. Beer is typically 5% alcohol, and wine is typically 13% alcohol. Thus, 12 oz of a typical beer would contain 0.60 oz of alcohol, and 5 oz of a typical wine would contain 0.65 oz of alcohol. So, yes, as a general rule of thumb, 12 oz of beer is roughly equivalent to 5 oz of wine.
It depends on what type of beer or wine it is and who brewed it. There's no exact measure but if you want a generalized average, beer generally is around 5% ABV (which in this case a can of beer will contain more than a shot [in the US a shot is about 1.5 fluid ounces]).
Although distilled spirits have the highest proportion of alcohol, standard drinks or servings of beer, wine and spirits all contain the same amount of alcohol....0.60 oz of pure alcohol.
