Detailed explanation-1: -It is a common misconception that beer is safer than vodka because the alcohol content is lower, and while it is true that it is harder to become intoxicated when drinking beer than when drinking hard liquor, you can still get drunk on beer if you drink enough of it.
Detailed explanation-2: -Vodka is distilled from grains and contains about 40 percent alcohol. Beer contains less than five percent alcohol.
Detailed explanation-3: -DIFFERENCE IN ALCOHOL The alcohol content of rum and vodka is very similar. Rum typically has an ABV of 40%, while vodka usually has an ABV of around 35%. However, there are some rum varieties that have an ABV as high as 50%.
Detailed explanation-4: -Domestic beer generally has between 4.2 to 10% ABV (alcohol by volume) but craft beer is known to go up to 19% alcohol in some extreme cases. Vodka that is marked as 80 proof has 40% ABV. This means that 12 oz (354ml) of 5% beer contains 0.6 oz (17.7ml) pure alcohol.
