You are correct, they would not put formaldehyde in beer. Methanol is in beer but this i know for sure= methanol can convert to formaldehyde and formic acid metabolites but it is blocked if co-ingested with ethanol. Therefore, alcoholic beverages and fruit drinks have a high percentage of ethanol- and ethanol causes elimination of methanol through the breath and urine. That's why i see many college freshmen around here burping and going to the bathroom after drinking alcohol.
