What’s a “pilsner”? Didn’t I see one of those on that table on the poster?

Pilsner is a light lager. Bud, miller, coors, PBR, bush, keystone, old milwauki...basically all american major brands are pilsners. It is a type of beer invented by the czechs, I think. Budweiser beer used to say right on the can “lager beer, made from the finest hops, rice, and barley malt”. I don’t know if it still does. Miller and Coors supposedly have never contained rice, they have corn instead. You see, malted barley is expensive. So they try to minimize it’s use to save money. Bush and natural are made at bud breweries. The rumor is that when a vat of bud doesn’t pass the taste test, they put a “bush” label on it. If it doesn’t even meet minimum standards for bush, then they put a “natural” label on it.
