For your delight, here is the quick summary: "the Lord has explicitly promised there will be wine in heaven: “I tell you I shall not drink again of this fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father’s kingdom” (Mt 26:29). But, objectively speaking, beer is a more perfect beverage than wine. Therefore, a fortiori, beer will be served at the celestial wedding feast."
