Might be the alcohol content (8)
I believe the answer is:
strength
'might' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
I don't understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for strength that I've seen before include "The longest one-syllable word in English - might" , "stamina" , "Force, might, potency" , "Force, firmness" , "Physical energy" .)
