£3 / 50p = 6 Units

6 / 0.568 = 10.56 % abv

You drink some wicked real ale. Some wine is only that %abv so you could get a pint of wine for £3

If you don't believe me about the wine read this

From Alcoholic beverage - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia



0.568 x 9 = 5.1 units 5.1 * 50p = £2.55
0.568 x 16 = 9.1 units 9.1 * 50p = £4.55


If my maths are wrong is because I drank too much whiskey last night
The thing is the price of a pint in the local pub wouldn't be effected, the average pint is around £2 or saw I'm told saw a minimum 50p a unit would have no effect
