Cold high point beer could be coming to a liquor store near you | KFOR.com
Guess who could give two ***** about Mohammed's argument? I wish more people would stop talking about the convenience of cold high point beer and instead talk about the real reason we (and the beer) will benefit from cold storage.

Yes, this is written into the constitution but I am not sure what it would take to change or do away with it. I don't think the number is mentioned, instead it is just referenced as "low point". I'm not sure when but it was previously referred to as "non-intoxicating". Either way the 3.2abw number was set by the Cullen-Harrison act prior to the ratification of the 21st amendment, over 80 years ago! The idea of that number is dumb, the way it was decided on is equally asinine and it was only meant to be a temporary measure to allow the sell of alcohol.
