budwieser has gone belgian

Re: budwieser has gone belgian
 

RIP disgusting piss water!

Re: budwieser has gone belgian
 

Good thing I dont drink beer. I care not for supporting the french-germans. :P

Re: budwieser has gone belgian
 

guy at work was telling me the bud is like the leading beer seller and that theyre losing a ---- ton of money bc of the economy.

Re: budwieser has gone belgian
 

That's the best thing that could happen to their beer, it can only get better.

Re: budwieser has gone belgian
 

Budwieser is ----. Bud on the other hand is much better.

Re: budwieser has gone belgian
 

Fo Sho.

At first I was suprised that they sold. After looking into it though they made an offer and when it was eclined they began the process of a hostile takeover and then AB caved.

Re: budwieser has gone belgian
 

Budwieser is ------- trash ass beer. PBR for the win!!!! If im gona drink crap ass beer im going for MGD

Re: budwieser has gone belgian
 

Used to drink bud, now I am partial to miller, I don't know why....

Re: budwieser has gone belgian
 

well bud products were garbage, and there are a lot of great belgian beers, so the beer can only get better. However I highly doubt the existing beers will change at all, that would be stupid.

Re: budwieser has gone belgian
 

there are lots of interesting things happening because of the buyout, they are now #1 in china, which is a HUGE emerging market for beer sales.

on another note, have any of you had bud while in europe? It was brewed at the guiness plant in ireland, and it was slightly different and much better tasting. now that inbev owns them, that will change because they are competitors...

Re: budwieser has gone belgian
 

I hope the rednecks dont riot over this...

Re: budwieser has gone belgian
 

dude, miller ------- blows. Every miller product tastes like liquid cigarettes soaked into a steamy pile.

anhausier FTW !!

btw, PBR, may infact be the best tasting beer ever lol... cant go wrong 11.99 for a 30 rack :S

Re: budwieser has gone belgian
 

leave it to americans to take....what started out as german beer....and completely ruin it.....hopefully they WILL change the piss water they put in bottles.....

same for miller......minus the sale-out

Re: budwieser has gone belgian
 

belgium ftw... we have like a zillion beers overhere and there all gooood :y

Re: budwieser has gone belgian
 

sierra nevada for me



I was bud fan when I was a kid. Its alright every so often. Oh well the euro has more power than us dollar nothing is new.

Re: budwieser has gone belgian
 

A million beers but no where to party.

Re: budwieser has gone belgian
 

Yet another company to fall to a foreign company buying US assets...

Re: budwieser has gone belgian
 

I just hope they keep the parks open(free beer ftw).This thread made me open a bud light. ;D

Re: budwieser has gone belgian
 

Gentlemen, there are only two kinds of beer: budwieser and free.

Re: budwieser has gone belgian
 

I am not a huge fan of Bud or Miller but i have a ton of respect for them. That is some of the most difficult beer to brew and they do it consistently for years. Winter, summer, different hops, different grain...it always tastes the same. They have mad skills with brewing.

Re: budwieser has gone belgian
 

When I want to drink a lot of beer (more than 9) I dring bud (real bud, budlight is gay's drink). Like that I have no headache and I don't feel too bad.

Otherwise I drink everything I can get lol

Re: budwieser has gone belgian
 

buttwiper sucks ass. not the worst but close to it.

Re: budwieser has gone belgian

Re: budwieser has gone belgian
 

I think the publicity is what that belgian company wants.

American (Pale) Lager is one of the easier types of beer to brew.

Re: budwieser has gone belgian
 

No, I was thinking about how terribly difficult it was to craft the distinct flavors of formaldehyde, formaline, and chloryl hydrate into every batch of Budweiser with unerring accuracy.

Re: budwieser has gone belgian
 

er...I quit drinking budweiser a couple years and decided to boost the local economy by drinking Bells.

Re: budwieser has gone belgian
 

Now I'm extra glad I don't drink that ----.

Re: budwieser has gone belgian
 

Right and wrong. They are easy to brew if you want to make a batch in your kitchen that will taste nothing like the next batch you make. With light lagers like that ANY off-taste is front stage. Fermentation temperatures just a tenth of a degree off or small alpha acid changes would be instantly noticeable. Not to mention the cold fermentation temperatures required versus an ale complicate the process. They make their money on being easy to drink and consistency. Pick up Zymurgy magazine some time. They never have bad things to say about the big breweries. Sure we all prefer something with flavor but i don't see the need for the hate on the big breweries. Just my opinion. I drink the beer i brew.

Re: budwieser has gone belgian
 

Drink one of theirs and you'll understand why we hate on the big breweries.

Re: budwieser has gone belgian
 

Coors

inbrev is a anti-gun anti-freedom company. they lobbied heavy in brazil to have personal firearms banned.

Re: budwieser has gone belgian
 

ive never cared for coors much till now. i did try one of there new wide mouth cans and was impressed how easy it was to chug.

Re: budwieser has gone belgian
 

Dont drink, I smoke. :6

I will say in Jax we have a Budweiser Bottling deal here, its pretty huge, and I hope these belgian fucks dont screw up the program and start changing ---- and closing plants etc...

Would not affect me, but I have ill feelings about this whole deal.

When I do drink...rolling rock ftmfw, and no I am NOT emo....at all. :P

Re: budwieser has gone belgian

Kudos for being their own company.

Re: budwieser has gone belgian
 

Budwieser is the worst tasting beer I've ever tasted.
I think merging with a belgian company might give them better taste.

Re: budwieser has gone belgian
 

they said they aren't changing it

i've never had a belgian beer that tasted good either
