What is the best beer alcohol content?

As a common drink on the table, alcohol is deeply loved by men. Although drinking a lot of alcohol can bring various harms, it is undeniable that if you drink alcohol in moderation, it is still good for the body. So, what are the degrees of beer, and what is the most beneficial to the body?

Alcohol content

The definition of alcohol content refers to the percentage of pure ethanol (alcohol) in a wine. For example, if the pure ethanol content in 100 ml of a certain wine is 10 ml, the alcohol content of this wine is 10°, but the volume increases or decreases with the temperature. my country stipulates that the test should be conducted at a temperature of 20℃. That is, at 20℃, the pure ethanol content in 100 ml of wine is how many milliliters, which is the alcohol content of the wine.

The alcohol content of wine does not represent the quality or flavor of the wine, but only indicates the ethanol content of the wine. Especially for distilled strong wine, such as Chinese Shaojiu (now called Baijiu), the higher the alcohol content, the better. In fact, the higher the alcohol content, the more irritating it is to the human body. High alcohol content can still have some effect as a way to relieve alcohol addiction, but drinking should be a kind of enjoyment for people in social life, so civilized drinking should be promoted.

Beer strength

The alcohol content of beer is rather "special". It is not distinguished by alcohol content. Generally, yellow beer with an alcohol content of 11 to 12 degrees on the market refers to the apparent sugar content of the unfermented raw malt juice of 11 to 12 degrees (the apparent sugar content is different from the actual sugar content, because in addition to disaccharides and monosaccharides, it also includes short-chain dextrins, trace amounts of pectin and soluble proteins, so the value is slightly larger), and the alcohol content of the finished product is 3 to 10 degrees. For non-alcoholic beer, it is better to call it micro-alcohol beer, because it does not contain ethanol, but the content is extremely small, generally around 1°.

Many people mistakenly believe that 12% alcohol content in beer means 12% alcohol content. In fact, the alcohol content of beer and liquor is different. The alcohol content of liquor refers to its alcohol content. The "degree" indicated on the beer label does not refer to the alcohol content of the beer, but to the concentration of the wort after saccharification. For example, one kilogram of wort contains 120 grams of sugar, which is 12% alcohol content. According to the concentration of wort, beer is divided into three types: low concentration (6-8% alcohol content), medium concentration (10-12% alcohol content) and high concentration (14-20% alcohol content). The concentration of wort also has a certain relationship with the alcohol content. Generally, the alcohol content of low-concentration beer is 2%, that of medium concentration is 3.1-3.5%, and that of high-concentration beer is 4-5%.
