[edit] ABV

What does the ABV count mean? [[User:Meelar|Meelar (talk)]] 13:54, 25 Jun 2004 (UTC)

See ABV. BTW, we seem to have had an automatically reverted edit conflict? --Zigger 14:05, 2004 Jun 25 (UTC)

[edit] The Widget

The first line of the Trivia section states:

"According to the 'Widget' article, Boddington's maintains the original patent on the floating widget used to give a "head" to canned beer."

But the Widget article (as of 25th of March, 2006) states at the end of the first paragraph:

"The original widget was patented in the UK by Guinness."

Boddingtons is not mentioned in the article. Is this a factual inaccuracy in one of the articles? 81.158.0.7 18:08, 25 March 2006 (UTC)

Note: The original Guinness widget was a plastic device attached to the inside of the base of the can, (as featured on UK tv programme Tomorrows World). The floating widget came later. Gomez2002 10:24, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
