No, a beer has its own merits for certain, though I would have assumed you'd enjoy something a bit harder.

[Still, he'll go put two glasses down - one the squat glass more associated with brandy and the other more with beer, pouring both of them easily and properly, with his brandy over ice and her beer with the right kind of head. At the very least, the beer's kept cold so she doesn't have to struggle with the hell that is warm beer.]

But I suppose that is why there is that saying about assumptions!
