Bye Bye Bud

[oldtimer]

It's Modelo OB, what i said before.

As a kid I would step out in the morning going to school smelling the Hops,,,, Lived a block away from AB

My grade school was across the street from the Pabst Brewery in Peoria Heights, IL. I remember the hops too, Maron.

The InBev CEO has this on their web site:

As part of its proposal, InBev envisions making St. Louis,
MO the headquarters for the North American region and the global home of the
flagship Budweiser brand. In addition, InBev has proposed to name the combined
company to evoke Anheuser-Busch's heritage, reflecting the strong history of
Anheuser-Busch's key brands. Given the limited geographical overlap between the
two businesses and the efficiency of Anheuser-Busch's brewery footprint in the
United States, InBev would maintain all of Anheuser-Busch's U.S. breweries.

That's what they all say ........................... until Labor Agreement Time !!!!!!!

Well, no...unless you want to switch to a good beer.

I know that smell; I lived in Milwaukee for five years. Not too bad unless competing winds mixed in the tannery smell. That city smells.

[ZAKO]

Yes and eight blocks north of AB was BEMUS... They made Hemp rope,,Do know what hemp is? and what it smells like?... Boy what a dizzy time I had.

[Daddy Dee]

I didn't realize it before, but AB market share is 48.8% of US beer sales. wow.

[ZAKO]

Yes and 48.8% will float down the river today.

[picky]

I'm getting the sneaking suspicion from reading this that not many here like Buttwiper. -Duh! The stuff's made from RICE for Pete sakes! I think a Japanese brewery like Asahi should have bought it. Then they could call it: "Bud, the King Emperor of Beers". LOL

[oldtimer]

And Miller stretches their beer with corn. The Germans have the right idea making it a law: only water hops barley yeast, nothing else or it's not sold as beer.

Did you forget to mention malt or is that included in the barley?

[oldtimer]

When you make beer you malt the barley, which is a process of getting it to just starting to sprout. Then you roast the malted barley. So the short answer is yes, the "malt" is included in the barley.

Dale Earnhardt Jr. was ahead of the curve I guess. Maybe he knew something. Probably not. []

[oldbuckster]

Jr. just got mad because his step mother wouldn't let him run DEI ............... It's hers, not Jr.'s .... He'll just have to wait his turn, unless she sells...

[Bill H.]

Budwiser is very weak compared to Good German Beers...........1 German Beer = 3 Buds...........+ no after night effects.

[J.4knee]

That is why I brew my own, kegging a dry stout tonight![<)][H]

[J.4knee]

Kegged and carbonating[Y][H]

[oldbuckster]

Oh No, just realized .................. A/B owns ROLLING ROCK, does this mean, No More Rolling Rock ? ....... Boo ! Boo !
