“…In this initial study, we found that a sample of 1,600 weekly wine and beer drinkers from the U.K. population, perceived the verbal descriptors Low, Lower, Light, Lighter, and Reduced as similar and lower in strength (wine: 6.7–8.3%, beer: 2.7–3.1%) than the descriptor Regular (average % ABV), but higher in strength than the descriptors Extra Low, Super Low, Extra Light, and Super Light (wine: 3.5–4.8%, beer: 1.3–2.2%). These latter descriptors were perceived as similar (see Vasiljevic, Couturier et al, 2018 ). Furthermore, among the two perceptual clusters, the descriptors Low and Super Low were the most differentiated and were thus used in the current study.…”
