An instrument or device that measures the concentration or percentage of alcohol in a liquid, such as wine or beer.
From 'alcohol' plus Greek -meter (measure), coined in the 19th century for scientific brewing and quality control.
An alcoholimeter uses density to measure alcohol content—because alcohol is less dense than water, the instrument floats at different levels depending on how much alcohol is present.
