So there was a video [0] from 2007, talking about a powdered beer, that you apparently drink directly? Sadly, the video itself is missing, so I can’t tell for sure. Going further, I moved past the American alcoholic "beer" (which I assume is even less beer than their normal beers), and found a 2005 Stern article [1] talking about the company GranMalt [2] that made beer-like alcoholfree granules… or planned to. That’s all I could find ;)

: Here I’ll mention that this is somewhat tongue-in-cheek as I really don’t know much about US beers besides the really bad stuff like Bud Light.
