Item 5 is not exactly true. Tetra-hop is an extract of hop oils.

I'll believe that items 1, 2, 4 and 5 are true. I have no problem with those. But I'd like to see the numbers that claim you are "hardly getting your money's worth" with cheap beer. Here's some numbers:

_______________Alcohol %___#ounces___Price__ounces of Alcohol/$10
Bud Light (case) ____4.2______24x12____$16_____7.56
Guinness Extra Stout _7.5_______12 ______$3_____2.89
Arrogant Bastard ____7.2 _______22 ______$3_____5.50
Delirium Nocturnum _ 8.5_______4x12____$22_____1.85
Skol Vodka_(handle)_40 _______ 59.2 ____$15 ____15.7

I'd like to see a "quality" beer reach 7 ounces of alcohol per $10. Really, if you want the most bang for your buck, I included Skol Vodka, although you will surely pay for it the next day. If you can show me a "quality" beer that can even get close to Bud Light (which is surely not the best price per ounce for cheap beers), I would gladly switch.
