sentences: Umqombothi (] ), from the Xhosa and Zulu language, is a beer made from maize (corn), maize malt, sorghum malt, yeast and water.
 It is commonly found in South Africa.
 It is very rich in Vitamin B.
 The beer has a rather low alcohol content (usually less than 3%) and is known to have a heavy and distinctly sour aroma.
 In appearance, the beer is opaque and light tan in colour.
 It has a thick, creamy and gritty consistency (from the maize).
Malt beer is a sweet, low-alcohol beer (0%–2.5% ABV) that is brewed like regular beer but with low or minimal fermentation.
 To keep the alcohol content low, one of two methods may be used: either the yeast is added at about 0 °C (resulting in an alcohol content of under 0.5% ABV) or fermentation is halted at the desired alcohol content (usually in the range of 1 to 2% ABV).
 It is made from barley malt syrup, sugar, yeast, hops, and water.
 Malt beer is considered to be nutritious and is sometimes given to nursing mothers.
The Cullen–Harrison Act, named for its sponsors, Senator Pat Harrison and Representative Thomas H. Cullen, enacted by the United States Congress March 21, 1933 and signed by President Franklin D. Roosevelt the following day, legalized the sale in the United States of beer with an alcohol content of 3.2% (by weight) and wine of similarly low alcohol content, thought to be too low to be intoxicating, effective April 7, 1933.
 Upon signing the legislation, Roosevelt made his famous remark, "I think this would be a good time for a beer."
Sugars in wine are at the heart of what makes winemaking possible.
 During the process of fermentation, sugars from wine grapes are broken down and converted by yeast into alcohol (ethanol) and carbon dioxide.
 Grapes accumulate sugars as they grow on the grapevine through the translocation of sucrose molecules that are produced by photosynthesis from the leaves.
 During ripening the sucrose molecules are hydrolyzed (separated) by the enzyme invertase into glucose and fructose.
 By the time of harvest, between 15 and 25% of the grape will be composed of simple sugars. Both glucose and fructose are six-carbon sugars but three-, four-, five- and seven-carbon sugars are also present in the grape.
 Not all sugars are fermentable with sugars like the five-carbon arabinose, rhamnose and xylose still being present in the wine after fermentation.
 Very high sugar content will effectively kill the yeast once a certain (high) alcohol content is reached.
 For these reasons, no wine is ever fermented completely "dry" (meaning without any residual sugar).
 Sugar's role in dictating the final alcohol content of the wine (and such its resulting body and "mouth-feel") sometimes encourages winemakers to add sugar (usually sucrose) during winemaking in a process known as chaptalization solely in order to boost the alcohol content - chaptalization does not increase the "sweetness" of a wine.
Alko is the national alcoholic beverage retailing monopoly in Finland.
 It is the only store in the country which retails beer over 4.7% ABV, wine (except in vineyards) and spirits.
 Alcoholic beverages are also sold in licensed restaurants and bars but only for consumption on the premises.
 Alko is required by law to sell drinks with lower alcohol content than 4.7% and non-alcoholic alternatives, but in practice carries a very limited stock of low alcohol beer, cider and non-alcoholic drinks and mixers as supermarkets sell the same products at a lower price.
 By law, alcoholic drinks may only be sold to those aged 18 or above.
Francis Xavier Schwab (1874–1946) was Mayor of the City of Buffalo, New York, serving 1922–1929.
 He was born on Smith Street on the Buffalo's East Side on August 14, 1874.
 At 19, he became a foreman at the Pullman Palace Car Company, then known as the Wagner Palace Car Company, and took a job as a traveling salesman for the company.
 He then became a brewery solicitor, eventually becoming the highest paid brewery solicitor in Buffalo.
 He married Theresa M. Lauser on September 24, 1901.
 He opened a wholesale and retail liquor store at Broadway and Jefferson Avenue in 1912.
 He became president and general manager of the Mohawk Products Company; the merged Buffalo Brewing Company and the Cooperative Brewing Company formed during Prohibition to make near-beer.
Ice beer is a marketing term for pale lager beer brands which have undergone some degree of fractional freezing somewhat similar to the German Eisbock production method.
 These brands generally have higher alcohol content than typical beer and generally have a low price relative to their alcohol content.
Lion Red is a New Zealand lager-style beer brewed by Lion Breweries, part of the Lion Nathan group.
 The beer is 4.0% alcohol.
 Because of its relatively low alcohol content it is widely regarded as an excellent 'session' beer, that is, a beer that can be consumed freely over a long session of time without all the adverse effects of a higher alcohol volume beer.
 As such, it is also a favourite of university students, along with similar strength beers such as Speights and DB Draught.
Low-alcohol beer (also called light beer, non-alcoholic beer, small beer, small ale, or near-beer) is beer with low alcohol content or no alcohol, which aims to reproduce the taste of beer without the inebriating effects of standard alcoholic brews.
 Most low-alcohol beers are lagers, but there are some low-alcohol ales.
Grodziskie (] ; other names: Grätzer, Grodzisz) is a historical style of beer from Poland that is typically made from oak-smoked wheat malt.
 The beer can be described as having a clear, light golden color, high carbonation, low alcohol content, low to moderate levels of hop bitterness, and a strong smoke flavor and aroma.
 The taste is light and crisp, with primary flavors coming from the smoked malt, the high mineral content of the water, and the strain of yeast used to ferment the beverage.
 The beer was nicknamed "Polish Champagne" because of its high carbonation levels, and because it was valued as a high-quality beverage to be used for special occasions.
