Uh, actually I work in the SF and Valley tech scene and know it intimately and extensively. You somehow want to have us believe this is a widespread and accepted practice - it's not among any reputable groups.

The liability issues alone make "listing" drinking alcohol at work during or after office hours as a "job perk" even more moronic.

But do feel free to list right here on HN the startups who proudly list beer drinking during office hours on office premises as a "perk".

There are many of us who do business in the tech world who will consider that a public service announcement of organizations to avoid doing business with.
