Budweiser now owed by a Belgian company... Options

[Havok1997GT]

Right, German thing; I know. But the American Civilization is known for drinkin' cold beer. Not that i complain at your place, i'm not going to let beer go un-drank, but it's so weird. Your the only person i know who does that... but that's probably what you say about me and my cold beer.

[/off topic]

So does anyone expect to see the quality of Budweiser change? Has anyone drank beer from this other company? Is it good, complimenting or just plain suck?

ok........WHAT!? You make my @ss itch.

First. Its not just a German thing. Second, you guys have got to get away from the Bud. Try anything Fat Tire or if im not mistaken its New Belgian brand. And if thats who bought Budweiser then lets hope for a taste change. Bud is good for a GOOD game of Pong, if your just looking for drunk you can do Busch and Keystone if you want. but to me, that stuff isnt even drinkable.

and Guinness is the best, pricy yes, but if your going to drink, do it right.

D-Man your killin me bro! Miller Chill is a fine LIGHT beer and corona and newcastle has always been bitter and i think about 1/3rd pf the people that drink either of those do it just bcuz think think this "cool" to have one in your have. But i do think the quality of Bud declining may be a real thing. I mean first time the company see a small hit in profits to either the USA (BUD) or belgian side of the company it will most likely do small cost saving things that effect the taste. ie maybe using cheaper hops or inferior barley. I think Bud uses 2 row malted barley but its more expensive.

Im almost possitive that i would rather drink water from a sewer then drink the Bling of cheap beer.

But again, im of the mind that if your not going to enjoy it, dont bother.

Dude, anything by New Belgiam is awesome. Fat Tire, Mothership Wit, and Guinness is liquid gold. Shiner is what i drink when im just looking to get drunk, and thats low end for me.

Oh that ram piss thing is from Beerfest, talk about a classic movie!!! Fat tire is good. So is guinness. But Sometime i feel like some imports are too heavy. Dont get me wrong they taste great just in the summer time when its 100 degrees out i want something a bit lighter and more refreshing you know?

[Havok1997GT]

yah i do, trust me, Houston TX, Hello.........


But whats that old joke. What does Having sex in a boat and Budweiser have in common? To Fcuking close to water. If im going to drink Bud i might as well get a bottle of water, about the same price and its better for me. I like tasting my beer, i like full flavor. Bud is good for if you outside working in the heat and want to drink at the same time. Which is a bad idea anyways. if you want a good flavored but liter beer, Shiner is a good way to go, and Fat Tire isnt that bad on the full feeling either. You really need to try Mothership Wit from New belgiam. Its full flavor but not so bad on the heavy.

[SlickRick]

oh i hate bud i just didnt wanna hurt anyones feelings bud is pure swill. I agree bud is terrible.

[xs94st]

that miller is like 1.69 for a 32. can't beat that

n i know, budlite n sam adams are not even comparable, i meant to say if i had the monies i would purchase some sammy adams. cherry wheat is pretty good and they have it on tap at the buffalo wild wings that i frequent

any1 try fat tire? how do you guys like it?

perhaps we should have a beer suggestion thread?

[DEATH]

I think we just did
All of these beers are fine [Even Coors and Old E] when compared to D-Man's fav: Lonestar. It's named for the state and even rabid Texas pride rednecks won't drink that [wait yes they do]. Coors has always reminded me of what budlight tastses like after tubing on the river and getting your can half filled with water.
Friend of my Dad's owns a micro brewery just west of Denver that makes some good stuff too - forget the name tho.

[D-Man]

And when i go to the big clubs in Ibiza in a month i'll be paying $20 a drink.

In fact i think there's actually a law against discounting alcohol here now...

$20 per drink & laws aginst discounting.

Doubble FTL. Sorry manphibian, no offense, but i hope you have one hell of a job that's just crazy!

Got to give a shout out to the 40oz too!

Olde English = smooth and gets you just the prefect amount of drunk. Great 40 to start the night with.
St Ides = I dont know what they put in this stuff, but after you drink it, youll have balls of steel.
Colt 45 = A classic. You get 45oz instead of 40 for the same price!

Those 3 were the primary under age drink of choice in my teen years. Nothings better then walking into a ghetto convenience store with 3bucks and walking out without even getting carded!

x2 all over this post! (Though we also drank schlizmalt, or however you spell it)

...you see me as more of a mix drink kinda guy?!

X2 on that, no offense, you just seem like the kind of dude that drinks fruity cocktails and wines and such... IDK why; but we all get that impression.

ok........WHAT!? You make my @ss itch.

1) Ass Itch? WTF (I'm probably better off not knowing )
2) The German thing, that's what Matt always tells me when i start whining. Then he says something like "Common, i'm drinking it, you just wanna leave it; and NOT drink the beer?" and i'm like "Na, it's cool, I'll drink it" B/C i dont wanna feel stupid, and then he'll say something like "Good, Than quit your B!tchin"
3) Fat-Tire is FTL.
4) Change the Taste of Bud? DEATH recently mentioned that you don't make changes to the World Best Selling ANYTHING!! there is a reason it's the King of Beers
5) Guinness IS good, but HIGH dollar.

D-Man your killin me bro! Miller Chill is a fine LIGHT beer and corona and newcastle has always been bitter and i think about 1/3rd pf the people that drink either of those do it just bcuz think think this "cool" to have one in your have.

No way, Corona Rocks the salt, Miller Chill Rocks the Sugar. But it's also to do with what you're doing at the time of drinking your beer. In my house, we eat alot of spanish style foods (if ya wanna call it that) really; we call it El Texadorian (i'm texan, Gal is Salvadorina) so Corona goes great with alot of our BBQ's. (like fajitas) But if I'm making Steak or something, Bud is the way to go. Likewise, if i'm not eating nothing, and just trying to "have a good time" at the house, then i'll drink lone-star or if i'm out at a bar, then it's all hard liquor

Broke & Drinking 40's after a bad day is FTW!!

But again, im of the mind that if your not going to enjoy it, dont bother.

But you enjoy "it" if "it" = Drunk

Yeah, you almost forgot about this Rabid Texas Pride Redneck didn't ya I'm not even from Texas either

DUDE!!

You didn't tell me that you had THAT kind of hook-up!!

Budweiser is a good "on a budget" beer. It taste ok, but not nearly as good as alot of other, more expensive beers. I'd much rather pay the extra for Fat Tire though.

[Havok1997GT]

ITs not even that much more pricy! 4 bucks for a 6 compared to like 5 or 6 bucks for a 6 isnt that big a deal to me when your talking about likeing what you are drinking

[97Celica]

I am a beer snob...and my grandfather retired from Busch...and Bud sucks.


in my fridge right now I have some Heineken, Dos Equis, and Leinenkugel .... If you can't spell it drunk....it's good!

[Havok1997GT]

haha, Slick! i work at convergys! sorry that made me laugh


Heineken, Dos Equis, and Leinenkugel to me are still crap beers.

[Stallion]

when i turned 21 the bar i went to had no stone brewing co pruducts. so i went with fat tire. gotta say it was a mighty taste dark.

is it just me... or does guiness give off this bizarre soy sauce taste?

i despise piss beers. miller, bud, coors... i dont descriminate. i hate all those fizzy yellow domestic companies evenly.

stone brew co is san diego local... we're blessed with their greatest achievement... ARROGANT BASTARD ALE. its tasty if you like em dark.

personally my favorites are red beers. nice and hoppy and flavorful. but not overbearing or too heavy like their dark brothers. im really impressed with sam adams line of beers. the oktoberfest was awesome

sam adams is ok i have liked all their beers except the cheery wheat. wow what an appalling beer. And i have never tried Arrogant Bastard Ale but i have tried Bare Knuckle Stout which is the one Anniesher beer i will drink its just kinda hard 2 find. Also Miller light has a nice blend of taste but not being to watered down i think its a great balance.

[Celicav]

My Top 5 beers are: Killians, Heineken, Grolsch, Spaten, Yuengling
