Ok now I’m curious what beer is served at CERN. I am not familiar with any Swiss beer and only a handful of unspectacular French beers.

If my memory does not fail me, that would be Feldschlösschen: https://feldschloesschen.ch/

I don’t know about the beer at CERN specifically but the beer culture of Geneva generally is subpar.

Local Calvinus Blanche and Calvinus Ambrée are pretty good for Swiss standards. And the country is starting to produce great biers, e.g. JA-MoM: https://www.brauerei-oerlikon.ch/shop/JA-MoM-p285045816

In 1996 maybe Heineken: https://www.spiegel.de/wissenschaft/flaschen-im-ring-a-45296...

I don't think it was particularly good or bad, when I was there. I don't drink beer none of my friends ever said "this beer is great" or "this beer sucks".

Free beer. Free beer. That’s my favorite brand. If I didn’t have to buy it it’s the best beer in the land. —The Yoopers
