Yeah, it doesn't make sense.
If a 6 pack of beer B costs $8 , then 15 cans of beer B costs $20, same as Beer A.
Beer B is ( $8 / 6 ) = $ 1.33 per can
15 cans Beer B = ( 15 x $ 1.33) = $ 20
----------------
So for $20, buying beer B is buying you more actual alcohol when beer B is at 8% .
If beer B is at 5%, there is no difference at all between the two options.
