ABV

Craig

Alcohol by Volume (ABV) is a measurement of the quantity of alcohol in a given volume,
represented as a percentage. In the absence of lab tests, ABV is determined by taking gravity
measurements before and after fermentation in order to determine how much alcohol the yeast
produced based on the amount of sugars they consumed.
