Haha, I admit I prefer beer as well.

Maybe something for a next update to polyglossia: a macro \nationaldrink to expand to something like:

Germany: beer, white wine
France: wine
Netherlands: beer
Belgium: beer
US: beer? margarita?
Japan: beer, sake
Sweden: aquavit
UK: ale

But I'm sure that the amount of discussion on this list would explode :-))
