Florida Drug and Alcohol Traffic Awareness TSLAE Practice Exam

On average, beer has a higher alcoholic content than wine.

1. True

2. False

3. Not determinable

4. Varies by brand

The correct answer is: False

While the level of alcohol in a drink can vary by brand or type, on average, wine has a higher alcoholic content than beer. This is because wine is made through the fermentation of grapes, which naturally have a higher sugar content, leading to a higher alcohol content after fermentation. Beer, on the other hand, is typically made from grains and has a lower sugar content, resulting in a lower alcohol content on average. This does not mean that all wine will have a higher alcohol content than all beer, but on average, this statement holds true. Option C is incorrect because while there can be exceptions, the statement is generally true. Option D is also incorrect because while there can be differences between brands, the overall average remains consistent.
