There is a new survey our that names the most popular beers in America. Some of the beers that are at the top are surprising. Some of the beers that you would think would be at the top aren't' even in the Top 10. The survey comes from YouGov, who polled 1,400 Americans about what their favorite beer is. This survey was for the second quarter of 2023.

The way the survey worked is that they asked the 1,400 people how aware they were of 75 different brands of beer. Then they asked how they felt about each one. Not one beer got 100% familiarity. The top familiar beer is Bud Light at 98%, but its popularity is not in the Top 10. There are only two beers that are in the Top 5 in familiarity and popularity. Those two are Corona and Heineken.

The survey also breaks down the popularity of beers between men and women. Both men and women say their favorite beer in Guinness. Guinness is also the #1 most popular beer among Millennials and Generation X. It is tied for #1 with Sam Adams for Baby Boomers.

The #1 beer in Florida is Stella Artois. The report comes from a different study.
