I read in the paper today that the former world's oldest person - a woman - has died at the age of 114. The story quoted her relatives as remarking that she loved beer and would order it with every meal.
Now, I don't recall the woman's name or anything else about her life, but if I owned a brewery, I would erect a statue of her in the parking lot to stand as an inspiration to my customers and employees. Of course, I might make her look a bit younger and more buxom.
I would never trivialize this woman's longevity by attributing it to beer consumption, but I think the evidence is compelling.
