Minecraft Beta 1.3 did not come out in 2012. Beta 1.3 was released on February 22 , 2011
The beta version of Minecraft was released on December 20, 2010.* * Minecraft-beta came after Minecraft-alpha, but before Minecraft 1.0. You can play Minecraft-beta with the new launcher.
Minecraft had a 'soft launch' (started as an alpha/beta) some time around 2006, I believe
The regular download as of Minecraft 1.8 is the Beta Minecraft. The last Minecraft update I believe will be the "Final" product and official game and no longer be a game in Beta.
Minecraft is currently scheduled to leave beta November 18th of 2011
