Wartime beer was reduced to around 2% ABV, so relatively weak.
​​​​​​According to various accounts, it took a lot to get drunk. From 1940 until 1944,there was literally no whiskey produced, unless illicitly. So one would imagine it would have been rather expensive.
Beer of course was never rationed, being seen as essential for morale.
