You must know that pulque is made from fermented sap of of maguey (agave) plant and I quote Wikipedia. Tequila and mezcal are also made from agave plant. It’s fermented as oppose to distilled and it isn’t carbonated. It’s also fermented with different ingredientst, from fruits to who knows what. Used to be the drink of gods. Call it what you want, it’s for me to find out. I hear it has medicinal benefits, that’s a good excuse to find out if an alcohol beverage is actually good for you (without abuse).

I went to a pulqueria in D.F. and it was served up in a galvanized bucket with a ladle. we ordered two buckets in two flavors. plain and celery…it has the consistency of snot.
tried it once, no desire to try it again.

Cider is typically made from fruit and wine is typically like 7-14% alcohol, which I don’t think pulque is. The agave they use to make pulque is more closely related to yucca than any typical fruit we would make cider out of. So I agree beer is not a perfect word, I don’t know that it’s a terrible word to use.

I’ve never tried pulque…

If you did, you wouldn’t be looking for it — it’s not particularly good.
