Well, there are those who link the consumption of alcohol with the simplicity of the rules and the ease of play for obvious reasons.  Calling rules  “Beer & Pretzel”  certainly suggest an emphasis on the game rather than historical relevance or grounding.   On game night, I know a few drinks sees the ‘historical grounding’ of any play delivered to the blurry land of buzz long before the game portion of the night goes in that direction.
