The percentage of alcohol contained in the product is 50% of the proof. Therefore, 110 proof alcohol is 55% alcohol. NOTE: I can't for the life of me remember what is 110 proof from among salable items one might find in a regular liquor store, so the safety of this proof might be questionable.
Beers vary enormously in their alcohol strength. Also, how do you count beers? By litres or bottles or cans? It is therefore impossible to give a sensible answer.
divide the proof by 2..that's the % by volume of alcohol content.
The "Proof" of an alcoholic beverage is an indicator of it's alcohol content on a 200 point scale. Take the Proof # and divide it by 2 to find out what the percentage is. So, to answer you specific question, 86/2= 43. Therefore 86 proof alcohol is 43 percent alcohol.
The usual concentration of alcohol in beers is 5 %; but I saw beers with an alcohol concentration from 0 % to 18 %. Whisky has a concentration of alcohol of 40 %. The values are in volume.
'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)
One ounce of 80 proof whiskey is equivalent in alcohol content to about 2.4 beers at 3.5 percent by volume. The whiskey is more concentrated, so you would need to drink more beers to match the alcohol content in one ounce of whiskey.
There is no everclear in beer. Alcohol content of beer is measured as ABV or Alcohol By Volume. The ABV in normal beers can vary from about 3.2% to 5%, but some beers can be as high as 15%. There would be about half an ounce of alcohol in a normal beer. A typical shot is considered 1 ounce, so there would be an alcohol equivalent of about half a shot of everclear.
You cannot. Though it's produced in Maine, 190-proof beverages are illegal to sell. You CAN get denatured alcohol - about the same strength, but with about 4% methanol mixed in so as to render it poisonous.
Budweiser and Coors are 5% in California. beer in Alabama got raised to 14.4% alcohol
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
Depends on where you go - it generally goes by ABV or "proof". ABV is pretty much understood everywhere since it gives a general measure of how much alcohol is in the beverage by volume. e.g. a pint of beer in the US at 5% ABV will yield about 0.6 US fluid ounces of alcohol.
