Haven’t drank anything Miller since the Gay Last Supper sponsorship by Miller Lite. Apparently, the photo has been purged. Someone out there has it saved. If you’ve got it, post it! Please.

Just about none of the big construction companies in America are American owned anymore. It’s really scary. We’re screwed.

...these scumbags ship Stella Artois in 11.3 oz bottles (formerly a standard 12 oz)...

LOL! I am amazed at the "premium" beer prices and adds for Stella in the US. Stella is considered cheap swill in Europe. In the UK it is known as "wife beater".

Don't get me wrong, I like Stella pretty good. It has a refreshing taste and a good crisp finish. But the only time I drink it is in the UK where it's cheap.

In the US I usually drink Shiner Bock or Newcastle Brown Ale (Funny that NBA is not a premium in the UK like it is the US.) I wish I could buy Yuengling where I live in the US.

Mergers of key industries have been fast and furious for decades. Not just since 2009. All I know is, that there are more options for beer than at any time in my lifetime.

I’d like to know why Miller doesn’t sell Original Leinenkugles in Missouri.

It's considerably cheaper than Bud or Miller in NYS.

Do you honestly think anything would have been different if Romney had won? Really?

Seven years of Valerie and her minion...along with no meaningful opposition party is shrinking the business environ. Airlines, media, and now....BEER. None of this positive for free markets or the consumer.

There is more competition in the beer industry now than in the past 60 years thanks to an influx of locally brewed, craft beers that blow away anything that Miller, Anh-Bush, and Molsen-Coors sell as beer.

“Sometimes i wonder if the people who post here are totally divorced from reality.”

There is drinking beer and drinking beer. Mowing the lawn I am drinking Bud or Coors Light from a can. (Not going to waste good beer on replacing sweat) Hanging at the bar with buddies I am drinking Corona dressed or whatever is local. Having the guys over for football, we are drinking a number of microbrews for comparison. Watching TV or knocking around the house it is usually Heineken.

Merge them all into a handful of huge conglomerates then force them to make labor agreements with a handful of unions that will perpetually fund the Democrat Party.

So you see, it all works for them.

I stopped consumption of Miller’s beer years ago when I learned they were a prime supporter of San Francisco’s gay parades and celebrations. I hope they don’t contaminate Budweiser.

Yup. Beer flavored water.

Remember when there were dozens of airlines and prices were affordable?
Remember when there were dozens of car manufacturers and cars were affordable?
Remember when there were dozens of phone companies and they actually competed against each other for your business?
Remember when there were dozens of news outlets and they actually had reporters trying to get a scoop on the others?
Say good bye to beer that is drinkable...........................
