Context The UK standard measure of alcohol content is a *unit* - 10ml of pure alcohol. Official advice regarding safe levels of consumption is based around units. So it is important that the public know how many units are in the drinks they consume. Open Units lists over 1,000 standard servings of branded drinks (e.g. [1 pint of Punk IPA][1], [275ml bottle of Beck's lager][2]) and specifies the alcohol content in units. The dataset is released as open data, which means it can be freely integrated into websites and apps, as well as incorporated into bigger and better datasets.
