In the UK it's common to see bottles labeled with how many units it is... maybe that's not the case where you are?


This helps, but it's still unintuitive that the "standard unit drink" is not the same as the actual standard drink that most people consume. 330ml @ 4.5-5% abv (a fairly typical mass market beer) would make way more sense to me.

A lot of people are going to assume that 1 standard drink === 1 glass of wine/beer. They're not going to read the fine print on government messaging.
