4% to 5%--New Entries?

I was referring to grocery store buys. The OP mentioned the same low ABV applied to them as well. I think if people want to get buzzed they will, regardless of making it low ABV they will just consume more to achieve the goal. I believe most bars are legally liable now in most states no? I thought they had to recognize when a customer had too many and cut them off.

On a side note how do they treat hard liquor?

 

I was planning a snowboard trip last year and it was between Utah and BC. We went to BC but I still want to ride Snowbird.

Are you telling me that the bars around the ski resorts or at the resorts itself all draft beers are 4-5%? Is so I am sure glad we went to Whistler.

 

Snowbird is amazing, I lived in Utah for a couple years and glad to have the opportunity to snowboard there. Yes all tap beers will be 4-5%. Snowbird do serve beer though. Kinda nice to sit and enjoy the views while drinking a 4% Pilsner. Damn it, if I could move back to Utah, I would.

 

Damn! I didn’t know that about draft beer. However, I would gladly trade higher abv beers to ride snowbird. I hear the terrain is awesome!

A Pilsner after a day of riding sounds great! Some of my buddies might be less enthusiastic about the low abv when going out.

 

Can we just kick Utah and the Dakotas out of the US already?

 

How do you feel aboot dry counties? Having to drive to another county just to GET some beer. Yikes.

 

LOL that is also dumb. I also hate places that won't sell beer in a grocery store, they force you to a standalone store for it. Laws and times need to modernize and just get over it already lol.

 

That still exists around here. I live in a wet city in a dry county and two of the four counties that border ours are dry.

 

I can see why you trade.

 

OP- Good question, as the recipe and beer experience probably changes with a 25% bump in ABV. But I'm pretty sure the answer is no, that does not deserve a new BA entry. Waiting for a moderator or a Bro to chime in.
And for all you people living in or surrounded by beer deserts, hopefully there are other things in your area contributing to your quality of life.

 

Ugh. Utah's beer laws suck. I'm sorry you live there.

But my serious answer to your question is, I don't think the beers require a new entry for a slightly higher tweaked abv. Just report what beer you would like to have upgraded with the new abv.

 

This was Oklahoma ten years ago. I don't know if their alcohol laws have changed since then, but at the time you couldn't even buy cold imported beer from a store.

 

New Orleans has the opposite of the dram shop law. It protects the bartender and establishment from what drunks might do when they leave the place.

 

Solid but I would also suggest adding notes of the beers' previous abv so that people who have rated them before don't think that they screwed up.

 

I was thinking both.

 

If one beer would do it, then with all the other things I've done/consumed/said I am long past gone.
