And with the Beer Index you take kill two birds with one stone.
1. You are much more relaxed while traveling to another country. 2. NEVER, EVER, Drink the water in another country...Drink Beer.
As for the Big Mac index, I don't eat those here much less in other countries.

Wow, here I was thinking I had made up the concept of basing a currency system on the value of a Big Mac.
Of course, the difference between the Big Mac Index and the Beer Index is that, metaphorically speaking, you can fairly easily print your own beer.
