You may laugh but perhaps we could set standards for beer, wine and gin, etc. So in order to be called beer, you have to follow certain standards from the control board. Bud lite would be reclassified as "pasteurized processed beer food" and not beer just like Velveeta can't be called cheese.
Well, ok, you should probably laugh at this idea.
Not to go too far OT, but the US has a ton of drinkable, great, and even affordable beer (probably more so than just about anywhere else these days with the success of the craft beer and microbrewery scene). We unfortunately also have a ton of swill which is even cheaper and which many people drink as all they know of "beer" is Bud Lite.
It says something that UA opted to go with the swill.
