According to a new study, Budweiser is the number one beer that leads to injuries that result in a visit to the ER.  The study by the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, found that 15 percent of those who wind up in the ER due to alcohol fueled injuries were partaking of Budweiser. Steel Reserve Malt Liquor came in second with 14.7 percent.  Then comes Colt 45 (also a malt liquor), Bud Ice (a malt liquor), Bud Light, and Barton’s, a cheap Vodka.

Researchers believe that due to Budweiser’s relatively high alcohol content, 5 percent, overconsumption of the beverage is nearly as likely to lead to injury as overconsumption of Malt liquor beverages which are also very high in alcohol content.  Budweiser contains the highest percentage of alcohol among the nation’s five top selling beers.
