A 12 oz is .34 L, which at 5% would be 1.7 units of alcohol — rather different than a single unit.

- volkl48 8y agoIn the US, "units of alcohol" are not a thing or part of the government recommendations. One standard drink in the US is tied to 12oz of 5% beer (or it's equivalents in wine/spirits), not the UK definition of a "unit" of alcohol. When there are US health recommendations made, they are referring to standard drinks.
