Single ladies! We've got nothing but good news for you today. Not only did we find you a dating website where the highest bidder pays you to go on a date with him (it's about time your blue eyes and cup size start funding those expensive computer classes — amiright?!), but the very same website has proven that you can determine personality type based on beer selection alone.
What a relief. No more scrapbooking his horoscope to predict turn-ons and turn-offs. Put away the needlepoint you were consulting to see if he's more into 'dinner and a movie' than 'long walks on the beach.' Now you can know whether your guy is a “Manly-Man” or a “Hopeless Romantic” based on what he puts in his koozie.
Using highly scientific survey skills from state-of-the-art Swiss engineers, Whatsyourprice.com asked 4,000 men what beers they ordered on a date, while the ladies selected which personality type best applied to their man. So is it Guinness that you reach for to impress your honey? Or how about a nice Dos Equis to show how worldly you are? And let's not forget the great equalizer, Bud Light.
Good thing Blue Moon's duplicate listing didn't misconstrue the polling data — then the study wouldn't be reliable, would it. Oh, and gentlemen, stick around for the survey that uses wine varietals to indicate whether or not she's going to put out.
