Coors Light is a light beer with an alcohol by volume (ABV) of 4.2%. This figure represents the proportion of the beverage’s volume that is pure alcohol. For example, a 12-ounce can contains approximately 0.5 ounces of alcohol.
The specified alcohol content influences several aspects of its consumption. It contributes to the beer’s overall caloric content, plays a role in its perceived strength and impacts responsible drinking guidelines. Historically, this level has been a common target for light beers seeking to provide a lower-calorie, more sessionable beverage.
