I watched "Beer Wars" the other day (currently rated #5 out of the 'Most Popular Documentaries' category at IMDB). The film is certainly biased toward the plight of the craft brewer... but that being said I think that is probably how it should be. Apparently Budweiser puts more money toward beer legislation than all the tobacco and firearms donors combined.
I hate to see the big guy tread on the little guy, and after watching this little flick the wife and I determined never to purchase a product from InBev again.

I'm the most sad about Franziskaner... I really liked them.
ReplyDeleteSpaten too? Nooooooo!
ReplyDeleteIt's like they're some sort of beer Illuminati. Beerluminati?. . .Illuminatale?. . .Bastardfaces.
ReplyDeleteHoegaarden? My dearest loved Hoegaarden? I feel... tainted somehow.
ReplyDeleteI knew there was a dark, lingering, stinky reason why I never liked Hoegaarden. It kind of tasted like sellout.
ReplyDeletehahahahahahah
