People talking about 6% beers but are they as strong as you think..


Is that 6% ABV Alcohol by volume or ABW Alcohol by weight.


Alcohol by volume is the percentage of the liquid which is alcohol.

For example if you had 100 ml which contained 4 ml of alcohol, the alcohol by volume is 4%.


Alcohol by weight measures the mass of a substance in a mixture as a percentage of the mass of the entiremixture.

So if you had 100 grams which contained 4 grams of alcohol, the alcohol by weight is 4%.

It looks like the two are the same, but they are not.


You get into trouble comparing ABV and ABW because is alcohol weighs less than water.

Alcohol is less dense, about 4/5 as dense as water. The density of alcohol is 0.79336.

Alcohol by volume is the alcohol by weight times the density.


ABV = ABW * 0.79336


This means if your beer is 4% ABV, the beer is only 3.17% ABW.


This means if your beer is 6% ABV, the beer is only 4.7% ABW.

Was in there the other weekend for a birthday. I enjoyed the cider (perfect pint), the staff were great, food was good although the chicken burger could have been bigger. I can see the big screen being a pull for some but I found it annoyingly loud especially when you are wanting to have a chat with friends across a large table. I will go back but I will also check first what is being shown on the big screen.

    • Why is it a terrible place for teenagers?
    • Well, if you ever find yourself visiting, let us know 
    • Before I switched, if memory serves there was some sort of thing on Thames Water's website which you could use to determine whether or not you would be better off with a meter. No idea if it's still there. Also, I have a vague recollection that if you found you were worse off financially with the meter after a certain time period, you could switch back. Have I imagined that? Whatever, I don't actually recall hearing of anyone who thought they were worse off with a meter, though I'm sure there must be some.
    • Don't move to Southwark at all, save yourselves while you still can. Terrible place for teenagers, IMO.
