Thread: American Rednecks now drink imported beer

Anheuser-Busch sold
to Belgians for $52B

I guess the fifth generation of the Busch family is a fuck up.

You know, I thought about the irony of that.

I am sticking to my current fave, Lagunitas IPA.

I'm a Murphy's Stout guy... less bite than Guinness.

I usually drink either Samuel Adams or Blue Moon, both American Made.

Belgians make great beers and ales. They might just pump up the recipe and turn that carbonated dishwater that Bud cranks out into something resembling decent beer.

As for me, I'm not much of a beer drinker but when I drink it it's usually Point Beer brewed in Stevens Point Wisconsin.

I don't get how they put themselves in this position. The only thing I can assume is that like GM and Ford they are top heavy companies that never reinforced their base market. IMO

I don't drink beer very often. But I like Stella, Red stripe. and Victoria Bitter

Maybe because, and this is just my theory, Bud, Coors, and Miller are crap compared to smaller and newr breweries.

Very true. If your a beer connesieur the micro breweries have it all over the giants.

Nah. There just old. And we all want to be cool and hip. And besides we owe those beers to our own existances in many cases.
