Of the following beer styles, which would have the lowest alcohol content?

  1. American porter

  2. Best bitter

  3. Oatmeal stout

  4. Wee heavy

The correct answer is: Best bitter

The Best Bitter beer style is typically known to have a lower alcohol content compared to other beer styles such as American Porter, Oatmeal Stout, and Wee Heavy. This is because Best Bitter is classified as a "session beer" which means it is meant to be consumed in large quantities and therefore has a lower alcohol content to prevent drinkers from getting too intoxicated. American Porter, Oatmeal Stout, and Wee Heavy are stronger and richer beer styles with higher alcohol content, making them less suitable for drinking in large quantities. Therefore, the Best Bitter option would have the lowest alcohol content compared to the other choices listed.
