Many English beers have even less alcohol content;
it's not uncommon to see ales at 3.8% abv, and mild ales go even lower.

Try finding anywhere selling mild other than at beer 'exhibitions'. I have
never known ANYONE to drink it.

The usual traditional British beer is 'bitter' which mostly ranges from
around 4 - 5.5%. A few go over 6%.
