Bicardi 151: 75%

Everclear: 95%

Ethanol, USP, 200 proof, reagent grade: 100%

.

Answer 2

Check out the labels, they will have something called "proof" on it, take that number and divide it by 2 and that number is the actual percentage of alcohol in the drink. Most beers and stuff like mikes hard are around 3-4%, whiskeys, vodkas, rums, ect...all range from 20% upwards of 50%. Bicardi 151 is 75.5%, and everclear is 95%. Be careful when getting into the heavy stuff!!

Answer 3

Beer is ususally 6% alcohol, Wine is usually 5-6%, and Vodka is 40%.

So like someone else said, a shot of Vodka is a lot like one beer, maybe even two beers/glasses of wine.

Answer 4

1 Beer = 1 shot of hard liquior= 1 glass of wine.
