Question: On a bottle of alcohol what does 94 proof mean!?
Answers:
As noted in other answers, proof is an alternate measure of alcohol by volume (abbreviated ABV)!. The percentage of ABV = (1/2) of the proof mesaure!. So, 94 proof is 47% ABV!.

For some context, most beers are around 4% ABV or 8 proof (though rarely referred to that way)!. Wine is usually 12% ABV or 24 proof (again, rarely expressed that way)!. If you're in a state with state run liquor agencies (such as Ohio), you can buy lower ABV alcohol in groceries/carryouts and higher ABV alcohol in state liquor stores!. Ohio's limit is 21% ABV (42 proof)!. For additional context, a bottle of whiskey or Vodka is generally 80 proof (40% ABV)!. Everclear (grain alcohol) is usually 190 to 200 proof (95-100% ABV)!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
