Also sounds to me like a Rule rather than a Goal. As a Goal, it needs an 
extra piece of game mechanics. Does it modify only the Goal in play when 
_it_ is played (and is discarded with that Goal as soon as another Goal 
is played)? That would make it less powerful (because temporary). I 
think the "Everything's better with beer" card in that case might not be 
too powerful, but it might make the Beer keeper too powerful ...
