A new study has showcased the most popular beers across the United States based on internet search data, highlighting regional preferences.
While some household names top the charts, the analysis by health research company Innerbody.com, which used Google Trends data, revealed some surprising state-by-state favorites.
The top three most popular beers in the United States are:
Corona
Bud Light
Modelo
Corona is the most popular overall, leading in numerous states, especially in the South.
States like Alabama, Florida and Georgia showed a preference for the Mexican beer, demonstrating its appeal far beyond its home country.
On the West Coast, Mexican beers like Modelo and Corona dominate.
Bud Light comes second and is popular in the Midwest, including in North Dakota, which is the state that drinks the most beer.
The brand has maintained its popularity despite becoming the focus of one of 2023's culture wars, after it partnered with transgender social media influencer Dylan Mulvaney for a short campaign and was subsequently boycotted by conservatives and others with gender-critical beliefs.

I don’t drink beer (https://youtu.be/t4a6I1bJtBg?si=WBYrTUSuvw9uuRhj) but, as always, there is an attempted salvage of a leftist brand here. Instead of total sales, this is based off of manipulated web searches.

Hamms used to be heavily advertised in California (”from the land of sky-blue water”), but it is now defunct, as are Ballantine, Stegmeier and Piels. None of the others are sold in California.
Back when I drank, I had stuff that came in a plastic gallon jug out of my mountains here in East Tennessee....
And Falstaff.
PBR drinkers don’t participate in no internet research projects...and when we does, we lie
I rarely agree with the people of Illinois but here I do.
I’m also concerned about Wisconsin slipping into Lake Michigan per the map.
To me, most American beers were insipid. In 1973, Tuborg, a Danish import, appeared in the US. However, the advertisers actually boasted that it was "brewed light for American tastes," aka watered down.
Today, my favorite German beer is Köstritzer, an East German brew that somehow survived Communism.
WalMart practically forced Yuengling to start selling their beer in Arkansas, resulting in a flood of people driving into NW Arkansas from Missouri, Kansas and Oklahoma. A small liquor store in Bella Vista was the first stop for those out-of-staters, and set a record for Yuengling sales in Arkansas.
Looks like the Mexican cervezas dominate.
I have settled on 90 shilling. Great amber ale but hard to find in bottles in my area.
Yeungling,and an occasional Guinnes for me
I was wondering why that is. Then it dawned on me - those states have huge mexican/Latino populations.
Completely bogus method!
I think this has more to do with the cost of beer rather than the taste.
I can still buy Hamm’s. It’s cheaper than even Busch Light
It’s cheap.
