Yes, I think.  I'd even bet it's considerably greater than 90%.
 
We are, in some respects, a profoundly uneducated people.  We don't know what 
"beer" is.

                We have a very fine local brewpub and they make a variety of 
ales: http://www.freestatebrewing.com/FSBBeers.html.
                 
                But I will agree with you that the watery stuff that Budweiser 
and the like sell is not, by any stretch, "beer."  (Except perhaps in a 
derivative sense.)
                
                

        Of course. My apologies. I was speaking mainly of the stuff advertised 
during football games (which I assume accounts for 90%+ of national sales, yes?)
        
        Best,
        Chris

                        Ale is an English drink. Originally it was not flavored 
with hops (and it doesn't necessarily come in green bottles). It was often 
flavored with spices such as clove (which still makes a fine Christmas-season 
drink, if you make your own). "Beer" is the anglicization of the French 
variant, bière, which was flavored with hops. English soldiers returning from 
war in France liked it so much that the ale-makers in England eventually got 
with the program and figured out how to get and use hops. 
                        
                        Neither is produced in the US. :-)

                                        Is this beer at room temperature? I 
just glanced at Christopher
                                        Green's post
                                        .. I may have lost already. BUT, I want 
to look at the wording of the
                                        questions before I concede. Hold on!! 
[If all all else fails I will
                                        work on
                                        a favorable definition of 'reasonable' 
- you know, it depends on what
                                        the
                                        definition of is, is :) ]
                                        
                                        
                                        John,
                                        The temperature of good beer depends 
where is the room: in Alabama or
                                        in
                                        John o' Groats*! Thought of 
artificially cooled English beer is
                                        painful
                                        (ugh!). As for the definition (actually 
the meaning) of 'is', I just
                                        looked
                                        it up in the Oxford English Dictionary: 
there are 10++ meanings. (The
                                        point
                                        Clinton made was not at all silly, but 
as a politician he should have
                                        known
                                        that most people would think it was.) 
So, don't worry about
                                        definitions -
                                        you may have set yourself an impossible 
task. And the bet: you say
