Units are very easy to work out. A unit is 10ml (about 8grams) of pure alcohol. Using the formula U=V x A, where U is the number of units, V is the size of the drink in litres, and A is the abv in percent:
a small glass of wine (125ml) at 13% abv is (0.125 x 13) units or 1.63 units.
A pint of strong lager at 5% is (0.568 x 5) units or 2.84 units.
A 25ml shot of gin at 40% is (0.025 x 40) units or 1.00 exactly.
Simples. Mostly it can be worked out roughly in your head.
