Olebiker Posted July 15, 2008 Posted July 15, 2008 All forms of Budweiser. If given a choice between Budweiser or no beer at all, I'll take no beer for $2000 Alex. You're not one of those (shudder) beer snobs, are you? Quote
Aaron Posted July 15, 2008 Posted July 15, 2008 Okay, that's a reasonable point, but let me describe the best beer I ever tasted: Grant's Farm in St. Louis has a beer garden. The Budweiser is delivered daily and served fresh, "Born On Day". Regardless of what is left over in a "fresh" keg, it's thrown away and new beer is served the next day. Fully aged, but never stored. 8-) I agree. The only time I touch Budweiser is fresh drafts. Never tasted a better beer. Quote
Olebiker Posted July 15, 2008 Posted July 15, 2008 I agree. The only time I touch Budweiser is fresh drafts. Never tasted a better beer. Even Falls City tasted great on draft. Quote
CJ Posted July 15, 2008 Posted July 15, 2008 WOW! The beer is one thing but, I wonder how this might effect their endorsments and sponsorships? Budweiser sponsors almost everthing. Quote

Budweiser sponsors almost everthing. like sea world. :'( ;D Love the free beer at Sea World. I hope that never goes away. Short story..... Went to Sea World. It rained all day so we hung out at the Bud building and partied with all the free beer we could handle. It was a great time what I remember about it. PS. Bud is great beer. It tastes like beer not water.... Quote
Super User Micro Posted July 16, 2008 Super User Posted July 16, 2008 AB owns Busch Gardens, too. I hear they may be selling off their theme parks. Too bad. AB theme parks are the best. Busch Gardens in Williamsburg, VA has been voted America's Prettiest for like the last 20 years or something. It's a great park. But if AB sells it, what will happen to the Clydesdale horses and AB beer cart in the park? I hope they sell it it to whoever brews St. Paulie Girl. Wouldn't mid seeing some of them chained to a beer cart. Quote
tyrius. Posted July 16, 2008 Posted July 16, 2008 Sam Adams is probably my beer of choice now after I do some more research and make sure they truely are an American company. Outside of the east coast much of Sam Adam's brewing is actually done by Miller which is owned by SAB, a non-US company. Quote
KYbass1276 Posted July 16, 2008 Author Posted July 16, 2008 That is whats wrong with this country everyone seems to have given up, I still search for products made in America, of course you are right I still have to purchase some foreign made products, but if everyone took the extra initiative to purchase American products you could help alot of American workers. Sam Adams is probably my beer of choice now after I do some more research and make sure they truely are an American company. I can not purchase all American products, but my Falcon rods, my New Balance shoes on my feet, my redwing boots, my carhartt jacket, my Klein tools, and every other American product I purchase keeps American people, your neighbors, at work. If everyone would start checking tags and looking for a country of origin, maybe spending a few extra pennies, this country would still have some of its pride. Im sure I am going to get a bunch of crap for expressing my opinion, but I want whats good for my neighbors and myself. Just my 2 cents. The tag on my Redwing boots says made in china, I thought too I was buying american but was sadly disapointed. Not to many things we buy anymore that isn't made somewhere else. I have many thoughts as to why we are in the shape we are in but won't go there. Redwing shoes are all made in USA. Every shoe that says Redwing on it is made in USA. Redwing sells Chinese shoes under the Irish Setter, Vasque, and Worx Brand names. I looked at every boot they had at the store and they all said made in china so something has happend or the store I bought mine from stuck it in me. Hey I atleast made an attempt to try and buy american but I was tired of all the other boots I had before and had good luck with redwing so I went back with them. Anyways back to the beer. Quote

There are actually people in this world that drink beer for the taste and not for the alcohol content. It's not that the beer snob won't drink American lagers. The beer snob looks down his nose at anyone who likes them and accuses them of having unrefined tastes. Quote
