FULL TITLE: Sam Adams Founder Chugs Beer, Tells Trump What ‘Pissed’ Him Off — Room Roars With Laughter

“When I started Sam Adams, American beer was a joke, and it pissed me off. And now, American brewers make the best beer in the world. And the tax reform was a very big deal for all of us, because 85 percent of the beer made in the United States is owned by foreign companies.”

Koch then complimented Trump’s tax cuts for making American brewing competitive again, “I’m the largest American-owned brewery at 2-percent market share. We were paying 38-percent taxes and competing against people who were paying 20. And now we have a level playing field, and we’re going to kick their ass.” There was more applause in the room.

Americans do not make the best beer in the world - that is insanity even saying that. Americans make very good beer. But not the best. Plus Sam Adams SUUUUUCKS

We have Yeungling here in PA.

I moved to Yuengling too. It is hard to avoid InBev Miller/Coors.

I like Yuengling’s Pilsner better than the lager.

I dunno, my buddy and I just brewed a few batches that picked up several blue ribbons at the local county fairs. Lol. Pretty darned good beers, if I do say so myself, and I do!
