Do developers really love beer, or is it just a myth?

Issues:
1. An ordinal scale with subjective verbiage?
2. An ordinal scale with no natural middle (there are six options!)?
3. An ordinal scale with 'select all that apply'?! How does that even work?
4. The percentages add to more than 100%! That's not how percentages work. At least normalize the scale -- or change the Y axis.
There's nothing wrong with trying to promote your analysis firm (I like RedMonk!) but at least try and, you know, have good analysis.
Either that or we're not "real" developers. :)
...I'll show myself out.
That said, I might suggest you like bacon even more than me, since you want it to stay alive.
Granted, it should probably be classed under some yet unnamed category of beverage other than "beer", but I still like it.
Puts things in perspective.
So easy to do so much better.
If you have a strong sense of smell, the skunkiness is overpowering and nauseating.
There are so many examples of decent light lagers out there that it's hard to understand the love people have for Corona
Sometimes I want a nice stout or porter, sometimes I want a lighter lager, sometimes I want a glass of red wine, and sometimes I want a corona.
The skunkiness certainly comes across to me, but I don't find it particularly more off-putting than the fragrance of a particularly pungent cheese.

Contrary to popular belief, Budweiser, Coors Lite, et. al. are not actually beers but rather beer-flavored water that also contains alcohol.
The reality of the situation is that (without exception that I am aware of) if you are close enough to a major city to be able to say that you are near that city with a straight face, then your beer selection is going to be just fine.
I would say with hesitation that this applies to larger geographic regions as well. States, 'coasts', perhaps even countries and continents.
(If I have learned anything else in life, it is that you should always be gracious when someone offers you a beer.)
Hmm, the theme of the two best beer jokes. Monty Python's (pre-microbrew) "How is American beer like making love in a canoe? It's fucking close to water." – and the old brewer's joke which goes like this (I'll use your examples): A Budweiser salesman, a Coors salesman, and an Anchor Steam salesman meet in the hotel bar at a beer convention. The Budweiser man says, "I'll have a Budweiser." The Coors man says, "I'll have a Coors." The Anchor Steam man says, "Just water for me." The other two look at him and say "What? Just water?" "Well," he says, "since you guys aren't having beer I won't either."

For Lagers I'd go Polish (Tyskie FTW)
But then, here in Brighton we're spoiled for choice.
Out of interest, in the USA can you get stuff like Anchor on tap? Or do you have to buy bottles? Because I much prefer casks to keg.

Actually, depending on the type of pot and how you are wired it can be an upper or a downer (it's actually classified a hallucinogen). There are two strains - sativa and indica's - and for some the indica will knock you on your butt while the other will actually give you an odd focused, upbeat kind of buzz. Not that I would know personally, ahem...
