Very close.  4.9% ABV.

I don't know where the whole myth about "all American beers are 3.2" came
from in the first place.  I know a few states had (have?) silly laws about
alcohol content of beer, but most don't.  The majority of our local beers
here in the Northern reaches of Caid are in the mid 5s, and several are over
7%.

Then there's the various brewers' guilds, homebrew clubs, and Silly Tricks
With Champagne Yeast...
