WHen I said "weaker" I was referring to alcohol content, not flavor (or flavour.) And I was certainly not expressing a preference--as a matter of fact, some of the best malt beverages I've ever had have been at English pubs.Three or four (English)pints represents 60 to 80 fluid ounces; an American 6-pack has 72 ounces of beer that's usua;;y in the 5.5% range.
