The Newcastle beer has been found to contain caramel coloring. Class 3 and 4 caramel coloring is made from ammonia, which is classified as a carcinogen. “The one and only” beer with cancer causing qualities.

I'd be very wary about making that assertion. It's like saying only one brand of cigarette will give you cancer.

If I listened to all the Banooshes out there I be eating weeds & drinking spring water directly from the spring like an animal.

Beer preference is to health & longevity as CO2 is to climate change.

The St. Patrick’s Day parade taught me which beers I should not drink.

I expected to see actual contaminants or harmful ingredients, but the worst thing on their list seems to be MSG. Mostly “anti-GMO”, “anti-corn syrup” hysteria.

Other than New Castle Ale and Guinness, the other 8 beers on the list are swill.

My everyday beer at home are pilsners and lagers that conform to German Purity Law (water, yeast, hops and barley). Pilsner Urquell or Samuel Adams Lager, for instance. When I'm in a brew pub, I might go for the more exotic porters and stouts.

This article is odd though, beer is hardly "unhealthy" if consumed in moderation. You are probably better off with beer than any soda or "sports/energy" drink.

I’ve no desire to either live forever or unnecessarily punish myself while I’m here. I think I’ll continue to *enjoy* most any red, brown or amber ale I encounter. If GMO stuff claims me early, so be it. Besides, I need to kick the bucket before that term life runs out.

Most of the beers on that list are nasty. But I ain’t giving up on Guinness or New Castle. Especially not for caramel color or fish bladders. Most of their “scary list” of ingredients are just stupid.

If I liked any of those beers I would say “challenge accepted.”

Spending half my year on Hawaii, I do declare Heinekin to be the second worst beer I have ever had. Number one was Sheiner Smokehouse.
