That means a 3.8% ABV drink has 3.8 units per litre.So for any drinks sold in metric measures its so easy to work out.The exception is draught beer which is still sold in pints and halves,but for ease of estimating the number of units a pint can be considered half a litre(but plus a bit-or 10%)Therefore a beer of 5% ABV has 5 units per litre making a pint approximately 2.5 units; plus 10% which equals 2.75. If that is not clear then the chances are that youve already exceeded your limit which is 3-4 a day but 21 a week for men and 14 a week for woman. The Tories promised to scrap the units system-it is after all based on figures plucked out of thin air-but without a difined limit,whats the point of knowing how much youve drunk? Before the election the Tories put forward the idea that drinks should be labelled with how much alcohol they contain in centilitres.logically this would make more sense with the chance of unified measures worldwide but it could just make a confused situation that much worse.Plans go further though,as calories in each drink may also have to be listed.
