Have been drinking Yuengling lately; as for Bud I’m reminded of the joke Monty Python had. It wasn’t in the TV version of the “Bruces” at the Univ. of Woolamaloo, but in live performances/albums one of the “Bruces” says, “American beer is like having sex in a boat: it’s f-—ing close to water”. (Yuengling is a US beer, but DOES have some flavor though!)
I think I saw an article in USA Weekend in Sunday paper where “The Doctors” recommended what you should and shouldn’t have, health wise, at a ballpark. Hot dog vs nachos? Hot dog not as harmful. Soda or beer? They said beer is not as harmful, as long as it’s in moderation.
They put Pabst on there? A cheaply priced beer that some like for cost (one place I go to had featured $1 16 oz drafts...then thew switched to Rolling Rock) and of course there’s that Dennis Hopper scene in Blue Velvet: Heineken?
F-— that s-—! PABST! BLUE! RIBBON! (gets a chuckle)
When I am traveling, I make an effort to at least try the beers made near where I am. Of course, once I was near Atlanta and asked the waiter (who looked to be about 18 years old) what kind of beer they had that was brewed locally. He initially looked a bit perplexed and then blurted out, “We have Budweiser”. I ordered a martini.
