I mean, science says too much isolation can be harmful. And socialization is good for people. And healthy. And humans are social creatures. Most people take comfort in socializing and stuff.

Sure, but you can be social without flocking to a crowded bar the second it's legal to do so again with no regard for how safe it actually is. Phones exist, the internet exists, you can hang out with friends in person provided they've been sensible about avoiding exposure... Deliberately going somewhere crowded as soon as the government has caved to public pressure to reopen stuff (which is very different from doctors and epidemiologists saying it's safe to reopen stuff, mind you) is a stupid idea, and far from the only way to get human interaction.

Drinking at home/someones home out of a can or even pint glass isn't the same as a beer pulled from the barrel.

I mean, if there's a global public health crisis ongoing and the worst complaint you can make is "my beer is suboptimal," I think you're doing pretty well. I don't disagree that well-poured draughts are better than canned/bottled stuff, but that's not exactly an apocalyptic problem.
