What proof is Bud Light in Florida?

Answer 1

'Proof' is a term that used to refer to whether or not alcohol - when poured over gunpowder - would ignite. Modern chemistry has made for a different usage of the term:

Alcohol is now rated with a 'proof' equal to exactly twice it's alcohol content. Bud Light is 4.2% alcohol by volume in most of the U.S., so it would be 8.4 proof - though beer is rarely rated this way.

Many other alcohols, like vodka and whiskey, are rated around 40% alcohol by volume in the bottle, or around 80 proof. Of course, mixing with various sodas, juices, etc. - even melting ice - will dilute this percentage and 'proof' of what you're drinking.

Answer 2

Budweiser (U.S) Budweiser 5.0 % alcohol by volume or 10 proof

Budweiser Bud Light 4.2 % alcohol by volume or 8.4 proof

Budweiser Bud Ice 5.5 % alcohol by volume or 11 proof

Budweiser Bud Ice Light 4.1 % alcohol by volume or 8.2 proof

Answer 3

Really, the term "proof" is not used in describing beer. Proof is a term that is generally used in describing spirits, and is generally double the percentage of alcohol content.

The alcohol content of beer is typically measured in A.B.V. or alcohol by volume. The amount if alcohol in beer varies widely between the different styles available. Most beers seem to range between 3.5%-6%, though many "bigger" styles will be around 9% or 10% and higher. I believe that the highest A.B.V beer currently is Brewdog - Sink the Bismark (41%).
