The #1 Beer in America Is . . . the One with the Least Flavor?
The past two decades, there’s been a craft beer movement . . . where beer drinkers moved away from the classic light lagers, for the more intense flavors of IPAs, Belgian ales, porters, and stouts.
But is that trend reversing?
According to a new report, the “most popular beer” in America is . . . Michelob Ultra. Which is arguably the one with the LEAST FLAVOR.
Bud Light is second, followed by Stella Artois . . . Budweiser . . . Guinness . . . Coors Light . . . Busch Light . . . Miller Lite . . . Blue Moon . . . and Corona.
The LEAST popular beer is: Milwaukee’s Best Ice. (Okay, maybe THAT has the least flavor. So it isn’t like our least favorite is a Pumpkin Spice Double IPA from a neighborhood craft brewery.
But now that you mention it . . .)
Harp is second, followed by Sierra Nevada . . . Samuel Adams . . . Keystone . . . Molson . . . Labatt Blue . . . Carlsberg . . . Hamm’s . . . and Keystone Light.
(Sierra Nevada and Samuel Adams ARE in the craft brew game, even if they’re still major nationwide brands.)
The report also listed the 10 states that LOVE BEER the MOST: Wisconsin . . . Wyoming . . . Kansas . . . Nebraska . . . Iowa . . . New Hampshire . . . Pennsylvania . . . North Dakota . . . South Dakota . . . and Missouri.
And the 10 that are LEAST interested in beer: Alaska . . . Utah . . . Georgia . . . Washington . . . Mississippi . . . California . . . Virginia . . . Maryland . . . Oregon . . . and Hawaii.
