A devotee or enthusiast of beer; someone who is fanatically interested in beer.
Formed from 'beer' plus a suffix patterned after '-ite,' which creates nouns for members of groups or devotees (as in Bedouin/Bedeuite, Israelite, etc.). This is a playful, archaic formation.
The -ite suffix, borrowed from religious and ethnic terms, creates an almost sacred quality—calling someone a 'beerothite' suggests they treat beer with the devotion usually reserved for religions, which is both funny and somewhat accurate historically.
