LOL. I don't know the answer to YOhio's question, but this is nonsense, I know. All beers are not the same. They're not like cigarettes or vodka. I do think there's not much difference between Coors and Budweiser, that's true. But among more toney beers there are infinite permutations, for better or worse. And put that last clause in italics. Because I like insipid American beers better than a lot of "craft beers." I always like a pilsener or pale lager best. Which is probably why I favor the Japanese beers, Saporo or Asahi.
