[[Beer]] is a drink produced through the fermentation of malted grains and the addition of hops.  Hops, which became popular in the 15th and 16th centuries, give beer its distinctive bitter taste and act as a natural preservative.  Preservation was essential before the invention of refrigeration in the late 19th century.  In most of the world, two large corporations—both based in Europe—dominate the market. Anheuser-Busch InBev (based in Belgium) has 25% of the global market. It bought out the American firm Anheuser-Busch in 2008. SABMiller, in London, bought out Miller's in 2002.  However there are several thousand locally owned "microbreweries" that serve local markets.

There are also many types of beers available, each with its own unique brewing method and history.  The most popular type of beer in America is the pilsner, noted for its light golden color due to the use of lightly roasted grains.  Gaining in popularity are other types of beer such as porters, lagers, wheat-beer, and ales.
