      I assume it will still be taxed the same?!

      I have notice a tendency for "general" lager and bitters to be dropping in ABV

        If you couldn't taste the difference I wouldn't object to having the option, but I think the alcohol provides part of the taste. We need Star Trek style synthohol

        Isn't non-alcoholic beer taxed differently?

        As for general beer strengths, they seem to be cyclical. When I was a kid I'm sure Heineken was 3.5%. Then for a while every lager was up to 5% a few years back, before they all launched fancy 4% versions. Fosters has I'm sure done a lot of ABV changes over the last decade - it was at 5% last time I saw it. Personally 5% is too strong for my taste, well I like 5% lager but not if I'm drinking more than one.

          When I was a teenager, the usual was 3.5%. If I didn't have much time, I'd have a pint of lager with a shot of vodka in it...

          Twenty years ago, most wines were 11-12.5%. There were a few 13% and a very few higher than that, but now 14% is quite common.
