We already label for common allergies and the nutrition label has to include what is in there.
Regulators enforce the law.
no snowflake, that is the more accurate number but the final gravity in of itself can yield a pretty good estimate. No large government body needs to be involved. I would bet it doesnt work that way in the UK.Montegriffo wrote: ↑Tue Jan 15, 2019 11:33 amIf you weren't so fucking dumb you would know that to measure the alcohol content of beer you record the SG before and after the fermentation process to find out how much sugar has turned to alcohol.clubgop wrote: ↑Tue Jan 15, 2019 11:25 amYou are fucking dumb.Montegriffo wrote: ↑Tue Jan 15, 2019 11:14 am
Do your beer labels not have to display the alcohol content?
If they do, you need a regulatory body to investigate the claims.
Unless you like watered down beer of course.
Now to you it may look like something you shove up your ass or that of a child, but I assure you it's not.
That needs a regulatory body of some sort unless you want to just trust the brewer's claims.
I don't, I have respect enough to not treat them like children or other of Montys objects of affection. I would also be willing to bet that the inspectors in this country arent federal. My guess, independent contractors hired by the brewers with government imprimatur. Probably not affected by the shutdown.

https://www.beerlab.co.za/blogs/news/88 ... fermentingMeasuring the alcohol content is done by taking (and writing down!) a gravity reading just prior to fermentation called the Original Gravity (shortened to O.G.), and then, at the end of fermentation the Final Gravity (F.G.). The F.G.is subtracted from the O.G. and multiplied by 0.129 to give the Alcohol by Volume (the same %ABV we see on our commercial beer and wine bottles). Here are three examples of some typical strengths of beer, beginning with an average strength.
Average: O.G. 1.048 F.G. 1.011. 1.048-1.011=0.037 37 X 0.129=4.77% A.B.V.
Light : O.G. 1.034 F.G.1.008 1.034-1.008=0.026 26 X 0.129=3.35% A.B.V.
Strong : O.G.1.069 F.G.1.014 1.069-1.014=0.055 55 X 0.129=7.09% A.B.V
