it also depends on which state you are in.  

Answer 4

As the Mayor said, alcohol content is usually given by volume (ABV) rather than by weight (ABW). ABV = 1.25 ABW.

ABV ranges from the 3.2% slop served in Utah to almost 27% of Sam Adams' Utopias.

Whoever named "near beer" was a damned poor judge of distance.

Answer 5

For starters most beer is rated by volume...not weight.

Next, on average you a standard domestic (or import for that matter) is 5% ABV for regular and around 4.2% for light. Ice beers will have slightly more...6% usually. Of course this is assuming that you are referring to macro domestics and not micro domestics. Dogfish Head 120 Minute IPA is a domestic and it is 21% ABV.
