What does Beer mean in American Law?
The definition of Beer in the law of the United States, as defined by the lexicographer Arthur Leff in his legal dictionary is:
An alcoholic beverage ordinarily made by fermenting malted (i.e., steeped and partly germinated) grain flavored with hops. “Ale” is a similar product, though often heavier and more alcoholic. During prohibition in the U.S., and even now during no-alcohol times (e.g., Sundays in some places), a much less alcoholic and generally revolting product which has come to be called “near beer,” is lawfully served.
