Do Wagyu cattles really drink bear?

Kobe beef of Japan is now a trademark and must fulfil certain criterion. The cattle stock must be from Hyogo prefecture and must be a tajima breed only. It must have been feeder in the farms of Hyogo prefecture. Sloughing must have been done in Nishinomiya, Sanda, Himeji, Kobe and Hyogo prefecture. Marbling ratio or so called BMS must be anywhere over 6. Must weigh 470 kg or below when weighed as whole. Some people believe that these cattle are given beer daily for food. This is proven as myth and infact some of the ingredients of beer are given to the cattle for food. For helping with low muscular activity in humid seasons, massage with sake is also given to the cattle.
