EC had explicit goal of "beer closer union", going cm to its immediate predecessor.

Some people claim it was sold as purely economic union, some claim it was well known goal back then.

But a lot of the rules that are supposedly so bad are rules that would be there in a purely economic union.

If the European project was really focused on a "beer closer union", it might have been more popular!
