Sounds interesting. Thanks, I’ll look for that.
I haven’t had a Bud in decades. I refuse to drink anything “Lite.” I am amazed when I walk into a saloon and see a bunch of tough-looking dudes drinking that sissy beer. I cut my teeth on San Magoo out in the PI 50 years ago. The only stateside beer I liked was Stroh’s, and that went out of business years ago. If I HAVE to drink American beer, it’ll be Sam Adams or Yeungling. Beer of choice when merlot is too expensive: Stella Artois.
I’m all for full capitalism but AnBush has in the past bought entire hop productions to keep them out of the hands of craft brewers. Also, they’ve been caught in collusion with distributors and large grocery stores to suppress competitor beers. I’m sure InBev has continued the practice but at least they do make some good beers, Franziskaner, Leffe, Hoegaarden and Spaten.
A lot of beer drinkers in America are trending toward ‘local’ brews so you’re seeing macro breweries pop up all over. For those of you that don’t follow BrewingTV or The Brewing Network you should.
