When Albert Einstein concocted this quiz, he said 98 percent of the world couldn't figure it out. Are you among the 2 percent?

There are 5 houses in five different colors. In each house lives a person of a different nationality. These five homeowners drink a certain drink, smoke a certain brand of cigarette and keep a certain pet. Yet no owners drink the same drink, smoke the same brand of cigarette or have the same kind of pet.
Read the following clues, then answer the question at the end.

● An Englishman lives in the red house
● A Swede keeps dogs as pets
● A Dane drinks tea
● The green house is left of the white house
● The green house owner drinks coffee
● The person who smokes Pall Mall rears birds
● The owner of the yellow house smokes Dunhill
● The man living in the center house drinks milk
● The Norwegian lives in the first house
● The man who smokes blends lives next to the man who keeps cats
● The man who keeps horses lives next to the one who smokes Dunhill
● The owner who smokes Bluemaster drinks beer
