WTF is a short pint?


Presumably a 16oz pint, as opposed to the 20oz Imperial pint.


bottom line; english beers are LESS alcoholic per unit volume than
american beers. *period.


If you are only interested in alcohol and getting drunk, that may be
an important, albeit not always correct, consideration. More adult
beer drinkers are looking for taste. Your period is getting the bitter
of you.

heh

perhaps. but taste often goes with the more alcoholic beverage, if
properly made. i imagine the winos in the crowd might have something
to say about this.

AND it is not ~i~ what started the age old brag of the british that
goes like this: "our beers taste better, are more alcoholic, and
generally the all around dogs ********."

but, to this, it IS ~i~ what says: "bull****."
