4% is the lower end even for macrobrews. Budlight is the lighetest mass produced brew and that's ~4.2%, but the standard set you'll find at most generic bars (corona / budweiser / blue moon / lagunitas) at 4.5% / 5% / 5.4% / 6.2% and there are some common brands in the 8%+ range. It's a weird narrative that American beers are all light, it's like people think we ONLY drink bud light when in reality the majority of beer drank by Americans are non-light.

Once you get into the 10%+ range you're not really drinking a "chill and watch the game" type drink anyways. And as you conclude, there are more efficient ways to get there than drinking a 14% lagar.
