Cider is most often compared to beer because it's slightly bubbly and contains less alcohol by volume than its fellow fruit-fermented drink, wine. On average, hard cider contains 4 to 6 percent alcohol.
Hard Cider Alcohol ContentOn average, most hard ciders are 4.5% - 7% alcohol by volume (ABV), while some ciders have an ABV as high as 10% or 12%. Drier ciders usually have a higher ABV because the yeast consumes a majority of the cider's natural sugars.
Cider is mostly sold as a light-flavored and clear carbonated beverage that is filled in can or bottle, having an alcohol content between 1.2% and 8.5% ABV.
With little to no added sugar, beer is the undisputed winner here. As a result, it typically has lesser carbs than cider which makes it slightly “healthier”, even though the amount of calories remains roughly the same.
