What your beer says about your politics (utter bollocks from UK RW rag) [View all]

An article of 100% guaranteed bullshit from the UK's premier RW propaganda rag the Daily Fail. Happily I don't touch any of these beers.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2209809/What-beer-says-politics-Samuel-Adams-drinkers-favor-Republicans-Heineken-fans-vote-Democratic-often.html

According to a study by Scarborough Research, Samuel Adams enthusiasts are more likely to support Mitt Romney on November 6, and they are also more likely to vote. In contrast, Heineken drinkers are more likely to vote Democratic, but their voter turnout tends to be low.

Some brews, including Corona, Budweiser Select and Stella Artois, turned out to be left-leaning, with Heineken being the most Democratic of all brews.

On the other side of the aisle were Coors Light, Miller Lite, Labatt Blue, with Samuel Adams reigning as the most Republican of all brews.

Many beer brands fell somewhere in the middle, among them Miller High Life, Bud Light, Natural Light and Fosters. Those who favored these beverages tended to be nonpartisan and also not likely to partake in elections.
