What was Watneys ABV (Red Barrel) etc.

 

[Seadog]

About 1.1% I think

 

[mechman]

As strong as that?

 

[Cobbler]

Watneys Red Barrel was the only beer I know that you got progressively more sober the more you drank!

 

[mechman]

Think I read somewhere in the past that If some of their beers were 0.1% less they could be sold to minors.

It was actually 2%! I don't know if that's changed , bur tins of shandy were always marked as being below 2%. We thought we were so grown up!
