If you just drink beer, IMHO, you're missing out! The mixed drinks around Epcot are the BEST!
Like a grand and miraculous spaceship, our planet has sailed through the universe of time; and for a brief moment we have been among its many passengers.
Grand Marnier slushie is SOOOO good. THere's also a wine kiosk in France.
Working hard for that next WDW trip!
And it's at the wine kiosk that you get the slushies, too!

hehe must've been too buzzed to notice (nah--my only adult bevvie is 1 grand marnier slushie each trip....)
Working hard for that next WDW trip!
Both Italy and Germany have wine bars (basically). Italy in the front, Germany in the back.
And don't forget about the 'new' tequila bar in Mexico (inside). (I think it opened some time in Oct/Nov 09).
And I think there's something yummy at the Morocco stand on the Japan side of the pavillion - but that doesn't make 100% sense, since Morocco is mostly Muslim, so I could be remembering something from about the same place in Japan towards the U.S. Pavillion.

Epcot is a drinking man's paradise.

Moroccan Beer Casablanca and various mixed drinks are served there.

Yes, it is a predominantly Muslim country but they do make beer. Brasseries du Maroc SA specializes in the production and distribution of beer and a range of fizzy drinks.
Tutto Italia has La Rossa beer, are they still open?
Promenade Refreshments has Stella Artois, Yuengling, Miller Light, Bud, and seasonal draft beers.
Kronenbourg 1644 is sold in Boulangerie Patisserie and some kiosks in France. Safari Amber is sold in what used to be the Refreshment port and is now Africa Rereshment Cool Post. You should be able to get Dos Equis in San Angel.
Also you may want to check with wait staff or the bartender for brands that might be available.
I may be wrong as things change.

Sorry, but a drink from a slushie machine is not a "mixed drink." I'm generally unimpressed with the selection of beers at Epcot too; they all tend to be the "macrobrews" from their respective countries that really aren't hard to get at any good beer store.
Best place to go is La Cava de Tequila inside the Mexican pavilion.
There's also a sake sampling bar inside Mitsukoshi at the back.

I may have to try that Sake bar, Steph. I've never had any sake I like, but given the differences in the tequila, I think I need to be able to taste some of the major classes and really understand them - and maybe I can figure out one I like (or else know that, for sure, I just don't care for sake).
I agree that machines are not 'mixed drinks' and that most of the beers are huge macrobreweries. I'm a big microbrew fan, and usually fairly disappointed in the options.
But there are days when the slushie machine drinks DO hit the spot!

I am not a slushie fan at all but really enjoyed the Italian Margarita (made with Limoncello). MMMMMM!!!

I'm THINKING (which is dangerous) that it's on the walkway towards Germany, right on the edge of Italy.

Can anyone give me your (US) definition of beer please? It's just that beer and lager are very different drinks to me and a number of the suggestions involve what I think of as lager (original poster asked about beer), so I'm just trying to establish the parameters of the question before I give some views.
If no-one out there understands, start your own revolution and cut out the middle man (Billy Bragg)
In the US, "beer" is the catchall term for everything from lagers to stouts.
My husband and I have called it "drinking around the world" for years and it's a really nice, relaxing way to spend an afternoon in the middle of multiple days of amusement parks. We stick to beer and wine and mostly buy our drinks at the stands and sit outside or walk around and drink. We also really like the pub at the Rose and Crown, for the Guinness on draught. The beer selection at Epcot is not very exotic, but it's still fun to drink a Norwegian beer in Norway, etc. Luckily, our kids really like the unusual snacks at the different stands and the shows and don't mind Mom and Dad chilling out for the afternoon. Also, last time we were there my 8-year-old did the Kim Possible mission, which kept her busy and happy for a while.
I'm not sure if Ales are between Lagers and Stouts, but they're included in the U.S. Definition of Beer, too.
Basically, if the ingredients are grain, yeast, water, and hops - and maybe some flavoring and it's fermented - it's Beer here.
