I think you’re only drinking certain types of beers and not venturing out, or don’t have the opportunity to.
One of my favorite beers to drink is actually a mixture. A dark nitro stout beer mixed with chiltipean (spicy) beer. Tastes like a mildly spicy chocolate drink.
There’s 10%+ beers out there that will absolutely get you drunk. Also, you might be drinking your normal beers to slow or have a very high tolerance if you’re never getting buzzed/drunk.
There’s a shit ton of nuance that you’re leaving out. According to the article you posted, it took 6 months just for the review process to see what could be done. Then years later for that number to be reached. Even states in the article that both aren’t similar.
It’s not that you’re wrong, it’s that you’re presenting it poorly.
