People are outraged. I'm personally excited because 9 times out of 10, any eurobrew blows away anything these macrobreweries whip out.

did you know Bud was originally CZ beer?

Not like its going to taste any different. Money is just flowing to new pockets.

was there a point where they lost the king of beers title or are they still the king?

I am.

This is important!!! Are they still king on not???

bought by the same company that makes Stella.... fine by me

I guess not! Seems as if Rich Horror is now the undisputed king of beers!

not fine by me since more of our economy is going to go right down the shitter.

The only people upset by AB being bought are rednecks who refuse to drink anything but domestic beer. Who cares anyway. Though I will drink it at times, Bud sucks.

I don't even drink beer and I am upset. Read my above post. Think of how much money AB makes off of that garbage. Now all that cash is flowing right out of our country.

I haven't been able to get a job in all the time AB was in this country so everyone can get raped.

beer sucks.

and the wine coolers you drink are much better?

well, if they would just approve the damn badges for the club, I wouldn't need those now would I?

we dont need no stinking badges

I wanted a tall glass of warm fermented horsepiss, and all I got was a lousy stella artois...

This might wake up some of the joe average dummies.

It said in the Metro today that Sam Adams is now the largest American-owned brewery.
Nice job, Boston.

No more AB sponsored NASCARS?

Come on, dude, Stella draft > Bud draft by far.

Out of the bottle, I would have to agree with the fermented horsepiss comment. That's what they get for putting it in a green bottle.

For some reason, I'm craving a PBR right now.

That's because you are a true American, sir.

I usually drink obscure European beers but PBR is calling me.

Budweiser is fucking disgusting in every way, i'd rather stay sober than touch Bud, so maybe this means that it will improve in quality. its funny that all the shitheads are screaming about how Budweiser is an American thing, even though its origin is German. Belgians brew a mighty fine beer, so this can only be a good thing.

You'd rather stay sober? haha, that's a strong statement.

i can't choke Budweiser down. its so vile.

bah, I should have said "Belgian Brewery" in the thread title. FAIL>

Bud is choke-downable when ice-cold out of the can. I enjoy it when ice-fishing, but that's about it.

It's better than Milwaukee's Best, Natrual Ice, Steel Reserve, and a bunch of others, I think. I used to drink 40s back when I was more poor than I am now.
On a similar note, I tried "venting" with the new Coors Light can and it's pretty much like shotgunning the beer. You can chug those down in no time; that is, if you can choke it down.

whatever, it's not like they're going to turn budweiser into a trappist ale. it will still suck.

PBR > all. Here's to your fuck, Jim. I like your style... so FUCKING suave!

PBR and Narragansett rule.

PBR's definitly my fav american/cheap beer of choice. I can only drink bud light if its ice cold but i never fuck with original Bud.

Fuck America!
High Five!

Bud = fuel for generic whites

American beer = the cultureless grey race of alcohol

hahahaha seriously. willingly drinking Bud Light is a cop-out.

i drink anything
faggitzzzz

Any Wine fanatics on here?
Never really got too into wine, although I've enjoyed the glasses I've had.
I love beer.

I like wine -- mainly cabs & merlots. Not too big on the whites.

Pinot Noir > most other wines

and cheese with that wine?

I don't think I'm ever going to buy that cheap 9 dollar jug of wine again. Last time I bought one I ended up puking red stuff everywhere.

my dad is a wine connoisseur and he swears by the cheapest jugs of wine. i've never really been into it, but a cab/merlot with a block of sharp Cracker Barrel cheddar is a fine mix.

wine and cheese or wine and some good chocolate...can't go wrong

and by ever, I meant never. that was a horrible experience.

like 2 years ago at Colony Liquors in Auburn there was a sale where they got a shipment of label-less gallon jugs of wine. they were selling them for 3 bucks. i contemplated, but it didn't look promising. they looked like they were bottled out of a bathtub.

my girlfriend drinks lots of wine. 2 albanians at my works brew their own wine.

bud sucks. i refuse to buy bud at a package store. maybe at a bar if it's the only thing cheap. My fridge is stocked with magic hat #9, opa opa red, sam adams irish red etc. for me and my gf. pbr cans for everyone else.

I agree with joshtruction. with out dollar weakening it's easier than ever for foreign companies to take over american ones. thus fucking out economy more while our greedy asses keep consuming and flushing our money out of the country decreasing our dollar even more. business runs government.

Big Business has always run the gonvernment.

if you think thats bad try genesse, the only beer i've never been able to drink because of the taste

malbec > pinot noir (most)

$10.00 30 racks means stay away.

i have friends who swear by guiness. i don't like beer that you have to chew.

i don't mind bud, after so many keystone light parties bud is flavorful by comparison.

eh, im sure budweiser is still gonna suck anyway, itd be way too stupid a move to change the recipe for bud

oh, and for the record i think keystone, miller lite, coors light, busch (light), nattie ice > bud

Steel reserve is fucking brutal. And i mean that in the worst possible way. I take one sip of that and I get the gags and heebbe geebbees! You know, the toxic shakes. Worst cunty shit ever.

If you want American and good, you're better off with Sam Adams anyways.

hahaha, keystone light. I haven't had that crap in ages.

30 Stones Motherfukker!

I used to drink that shit like it was soda. It's practically alcoholic seltzer water. Gets you fucked quite quickly.

Steel Reserve tastes like its name. What godawful shit. I would rather drink Odouls than drink that carbonated piss drink.

COOL so bud will cost as much as a Heineken now? PTHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

I hate all bud. Sam and Guiness are my favorites. I like Magic hat Braggot and Circus Boy a lot. My favorites however are little random Irish/Scottish brews that you find in Boston. There was one I can't remember the name of but it was so good!

The best thing Sam Adams puts out is the 12 pack of their mixed Winter Brews

not Guinness, Genesee or however you spell it. that shit is brutal.

Maybe now Bud won't taste like shit.

Great article in the Herald (Boston's finest fishwrap) about this. They interviewed all these Joe Douchebags about it, and some police chief summed it up best:

“What happens up there in the corporate world, we don’t care,” he said. “We just want the same product, the same name, the name recognition. I think it would be a disaster if they changed it.”

In other words, who gives a shit if the country hemmorhages money, as long as the beer still tastes like week-old piss. LOL

11:58am
it's close enough to noon right?

As we like to say when we're drinking at 8am on the boat, it's noon somewhere.

hahahahahahahahaha
