Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are correct but R is not the correct explanation of A. |
Wine and beer (soft liquor) are produced directly by fermentation whereas brandy, rum, whisky (hard liquor) etc. required both fermentation and distillation. So, Beer and wine are called as soft liquors because it has very low alcohol content (maximum 12%) whereas gin, rum etc are called as hard liquor because it has very high alcohol content (from 20% to 95%). So, the process of producing beer and wine does not decide its type that is hard or soft liquor. |
