I could understand if it was no alcohol at all, but why only beer? I might be missing something, so if anyone knows...
Cheers :)
I don't get why they allow wine
AdWords is underage and French!
Empty beer cans are allowed.
Beer t-shirts are allowed.
Foreign beer is allowed - try Corona.
Foreign spirits are allowed - try Stolichnaya, Drambuie
I need a drink now.
Forgive me, but, "Who buys freaking beer on the Internet?!"

They call them oxy coffins for a reason.
Do no evil..socially responsible..big joke.

A "Beer of the Month Club" membership from an online beer website was an xmas gift to me this year, and not a bad one in my opinion! ; )
- now if only that first shipment would arrive...

Mail-order beer sales are only legal in about 1/3 of the United States. That makes advertising beer online much less profitable than advertising wine. Google may have decided it's not worth the aggravation of getting involved in a market sector where 2/3 of the clickthroughs are "wasted".
That said, it's their site. They get to control what's on it. Anybody complaining to the contrary is just a whiner.
Wine is considered an investment and commodity by a lot of people (as evidenced by places that I can have my wine shipped to for storage for many years until I can pick it up or wish to sell it to a 3rd party).
As it is an investment/trade good as well, many sites break the no tobacco/firearms/booze self regulating rules for wines and certain liquors (such as scotch).

It might have been pulled since. The one I saw led to a link that led to a link. The vodka example still leads to real alcohol.
