St. Louis—In what could be the biggest disaster since Hurricane Katrina, Budweiser—after being sold to Belgian based InBev—has immediately plans to change the formulation for their beer. The change comes to reflect a European style of beer, giving it a more “fruitier and nuttier taste,” a veritable Bud “spritzer.”

The beer, known to the common working class man, will now appeal to the most erudite of Americans. The “King Of Beers” will indeed have a flavor made for a king, flushing years of perfection down the toilet.

The best thing Coors makes is their non-alcoholic 'beer'.

It's not good, but it's the best thing they make.

Coors Light=Poor mans Perrier.

As opposed to down the urinal as is usually is. :)

I'm not much of a beer drinker, so when I drink a beer I just want one that doesn't fill me up, taste bad, or give me a headache. Coors Light satisfies those conditions IMO. I'd rather just have a limeade, but sometimes socially I'll have a beer.

Beer is made from water, malted barley, hops, yeast and NOTHING ELSE.

Maybe in Germany but not in St. Louis. What, you didn't know?

Budweiser is made with a proportion of rice in addition to barley malt, for which it has received some criticism, though the company takes the position that the rice gives the beer a lighter taste.

Who sits around dreaming up this kinda stuff?

A bunch of wack jobs obviously. :-)

Perfect graphic, TR. Thanks for reading and posting. I do appreciate it.

I wish it were not satire

Well, maybe you'll get lucky.

If you stop and think about it, sooner or later the King of Beers winds up getting flushed down the toilet anyway.

It does ideed, Non-Sequitur. Thanks for reading and pointing that out. I appreciate it. Definitely adds to the thread.

Thanks for posting the graphic, tda666, it’s perfect for the satire.

Thanks for reading, skink. I do appreciate it. Hope the fruit ain’t too bad. :-)

Haven’t tried the hefe, but I do enjoy Shiner Bock.

Bud, Miller, Coors - all seem bland to me.
