me, too

the inbev tentacles are deep in the industry. gotta google it from time to time to see what acquisitions they have made, so that I know what to boycott.

I have also shunned sam adams nowadays, since they made a beer to “salute” rbg.

shame....I liked their beers, too.

In honor of this news and the end of the World Series I will post the punchline and let you remember the joke:

“Why that’s the beer that made Mel Famey walk us.”

The Coors family are/were good people. I once worked with Adolf’s great grandson. He’s great conservative American, looked just like him too.

Make that “ex-brewing titan”. Yay for Milwaukee, they can be the capitol of crappy pale pilsner beer that any normal person would be ashamed to serve anywhere but a BF Skinner hoe-down.

I’m from a nearby state, we’ve been calling Coors “Rocky Mountain piss-water” for the last 40 years (that I can remember, probably longer than that).

Me too. I’m also not a fan of IPAs, no idea how that got popular. Must be a hipster thing.

The reservoir above Golden Co. is where the local kids stop to empty their bladders late at night.
It gives Coors that “special” flavor.

I drink amber & brown ales all year long. Why the change to pilsners in summer?

"Too bad all they had to offer was watered down horse piss."

Wasn't their slogan, "It's the water"? There were popular t-shirts back when with a boy peeing just above the slogan. Or was that Olympia beer?

Other than micro-breweries, the only decent mass produced beer is Samuel Adams with all their different brews. Heineken tastes sour and leaves an after taste. Corona is okay with the lime. The Philippine's San Miguel is okay, but I may be biased after spending months at sea. Australia's Fosters is over rated. Molson is not too bad.

All of the water we use is privately owned (Adolph bought the rights and land), fenced off and purified extensively before it’s allowed into the plant. We call it, “A,” water.
