Beard Friendliness of lager subject to review
The Beard Liberation Front, the informal network of beard wearers, has said that it is reviewing whether or not lager can be beard friendly.
The focus is not on mass produced industrial lagers like Carling and Fosters but on properly produced ‘craft’ lagers which may nevertheless be big sellers.
Beer writer Melissa Cole has written on the Guardian on the rise of authentic lager:

Meanwhile another beer writer Matthew Curtis has run a session at Manchester’s Cloudwater breweries’ Friends and Family festival today on lager.
Mr Curtis told the BLF that numbers of beard wearers were to be observed drinking lager.
BLF Organiser Keith Flett said, it is not just question of whether people with beards drink lager. Obviously they do. The matter at issue is how beard friendly a good lager is. Can it nourish beard follicles in the same way as an imperial stout for example. We are reviewing the case for the beard friendliness of lager.
