    It’s common and they were already in place when prohibition ended.

    So after a good chunk of time with all the breweries becoming unavailable, they were fast to start selling and it just became a common brand.

    Having the three key elements to an alcohol consumed for social purposes rather than taste also helped: cheap, available and cheap.

    We’ve got others around, but they’re generally not everywhere.

    I don’t know that I’ve ever heard anyone say they like the taste though. I think the closest I’ve heard is someone saying they like how it’s cold.
