I just tried (against my better judgement) their new dark 6% beer. It was stronger pisswater. I takes a special talent and tenacity to screw up beer that badly.

Adolphus Busch IV’s car has killed more people than my gun has. Oh, and his house killed one too.

Coors Gold...naaaaa nor the stout. Too stout for me, but love to drink with stout drinkers, makes me know I am in good company!
Now here is a good beer:

I used to drink Bud. I used to eat Cheerios(General Mills bankrolled homo activist campaigns). I used to go to Starbucks. I used to contribute to the Scouts—my kids were scouts when they were young. I used to order books through Amazon. The rot continues.....

Back in the seventies, Budweiser was about as good as it got. It was a barren beer desert. Now, there’s a lot of crap beer, and a lot of over hopped crap beer from microbreweries. I still can’t find the kind of beer/ale I like.
When I visited England a few years ago, there were some small local ales that were astoundingly good. Not sweet, not dry. Not warm, not cold. Not over hopped, not bland. Not bitter, not sour. You could put the pint to your lips, and it would just siphon itself into your belly and make you happy and healthy. No pain, no burping, no chills. I don’t remember the names, but they were cask conditioned, and you could only get them where the old folks drank.
Can anyone help me find something like that in the States?

Plywood aged Scudweiser.
But Inbev owns it now anyway. Augie Busch has no interest in it.

Meh. I haven’t paid for Bud since they sold out to a Belgian company. Only time I ever drink their products anyway is if someone else bought some Shock Top or Ziegenbock. But I don’t spend anything on their products.

Who cares what the great grandchild of anyone thinks? Apparently he hasn’t accomplished anything in his life and lives off his Great grandpas trust fund.

Bud tasts like horse piss and supports gun grabbers so you trash Coors, which supports conservative causes? Brilliant, just brilliant!
To: Leaning Right
I’ll drink to that, and not a butt wiper
