Gosh darn it!...the Chinese are out performing us at this too now!

So what is the world's most popular beer? Snow.

 Yes, that's a beer. It's produced by the CR Snow joint venture between SAB
Miller (SBMRY +0.59%) and China Resources. More than twice as many pints of
Snow were downed last year than Bud Light, which fell to #3 after Tsingtao,
according to data compiled by Euromonitor International and Bloomberg.

If your American keg-stand pride is feeling upturned by a third-place
ranking, the news gets worse. Budweiser hasn't technically been American
beer for some time now. The company that took it over in 2008,
Anheuser-Busch Inbev (AHBIF -0.68%), is based in Belgium. It now owns half
of the top 10 beers in the world.
