As a Massachusetts resident, I can understand your opinions. My driver's test was just a quick and easy - all I had to do was reverse around a corner, in a small car, even.

But that doesn't make me a bad driver. In fact I do my best to be as good a driver as I can, because so many other people out there (in this state anyway), just don't care. But in Boston, you have to drive as a Bostonian, or you're not going to get anywhere.

You did study, though, and made sure you knew your stuff, prior to the test. What does it matter if the trooper didn't give you a complicated test? (And sometimes, believe it or not, they do.) If you don't feel you've earned the beer, then have yourself something less celebratory, like a Coke.
