Full story at link, but the chart tells you everything you need for discussion.

[gunnyg]

Semper Great Beer!

This doesn’t mean a damn thing. I love Corona and haven’t missed an election.

[howlinhound]

All my beer ever says is “Drink Me!”

[Liberty Valance]

Without Shiner Bock on the list ... it’s not a list.

[dragonblustar]

What? No Land Shark or Killians?

I drink Leinenkugel. I guess that makes me a Libertarian.

[Old Teufel Hunden]

Where are the Hefeweizen drinkers? What about the Irish Ale drinkers? This chart is incomplete!!!

[a fool in paradise]

Similarly, pollsters sometimes ask the question, "Who would you rather have a beer with?" to gauge which candidate has the likeability edge.

Romney doesn't drink beer and Bush gave it up later in life.

I wouldn't want to hang with a douchebag like Obama even if I got an invite to the White House.

[showme_the_Glory]

Where the heck is Shiner???

[evets]

[discostu]

On that list I drink Stella, Guinness, Sams and Dos Equis. They got the frequency right but the alignment is all wrong. Of course they don’t have any of my primary “go to” beers, which would be the entire lines of New Belgium and Flying Dog.

[TexasTransplant]

I didn’t see “Cold Beer” or “Free Beer” on the chart.

I’m all over the chart, and off the chart.

It depends what I’m doing when I’m drinking.

Working in the garage when it’s hot, I’ll tend to drink Corona Light or Rolling Rock - I want to satisfy my thirst without getting plastered.

If I’m relaxing, and am limited to what’s on the shelf at the store, I gravitate towards something from Sam Adams.

OTOH, we have a German beer bar a block from our house. They have seven taps and dozens of bottled varieties - many of which have high alchohol content and almost all are imports from all over the world. If we walk there, I’m free to experiment as long as I can still stumble home in the correct general direction.

But if the neighbors offer me a Bud Light, I’m not about to turn my nose up at it even though it’s not my preference. In that case, I value the sentiment of the offer more than the beverage itself.

Labatt's Blue Light, baby!... SE Michigan Kroger stores still have the 24 oz. cans for a buck a pop! That amounts to a case for $12 + 1.20 (cans)= 13.20 + .99 (6 percent sales tax)= 14.19 (grand total).

That comes to .59 cents per 12 oz. serving! Go to a sports bar or fancy restaurant and order three microbrews @ $4 apiece and you're talking roughly the same price when you include tax and gratuity.

That's 6.75x times the cost of 12 Labatt's Blue Light (or Labatt Ice w/5.6 % alcohol content!) 24 oz. cans at Kroger...

[Daveinyork]

I don’t like beer all that much, but when I do drink it, I prefer a porter or a stout, and I’m a high turnout Republican voter. I’ve missed only one election since I was eligible to vote in 1970.

[spodefly]

My favorite beer, Kirin, isn’t on the list. Therefore, I can only conclude that I have no representation in government. I already knew this.

[beethovenfan]

What about Anchor Steam?

[puppypusher]

Sam Adams Octoberfest here.Thats a Great Beer.Though they have a lot more that I like.
