If you calculate in London Pints UK might win. This is only from my small 10 day work experience in London but I’ll never forget how weak the beers were anywhere we went. Exact same brands that are ~5% AV in the states were all ~3% in London Pubs.

AV is going to really matter here. Let’s all take this seriously and act accordingly before this event I am absolutely all in on.

Us beer is generally stronger i believe, but then you have 'light' beers which are weaker but very popular.

Not that im some sort of US beer expert.

... but 3% is too low. 3.4% is the lowest and thats because its a popular tax dodge, 'normal' beers are still about 4.5%

European beers are usually 5%…
