'Proof' is a unit of measurement equal to 1 half of 1 percent. Therefore, 150 proof is 75% Alcohol by Volume (although at this point, you're more likely drinking moonshine or grain alcohol and not whiskey)

the higher the proof the stronger - more alcohol - there is. In the UK 70 dgree proof was the standard strength of whiskey - 40% alcohol. 100 proof is 57.1% alcohol. 175 proof is 100% alcohol. In the USA it is different. 100 proof would be 50% alcohol, 70 proof would be 35% alcohol. 200proof would be 100% alcohol. ie double
