Busch Gardens has announced that they will no longer offer free beer samples at any of their locations. The hospitality rooms are going to be turned into resteraunts. THis is another byproduct of the sale of Busch to InBev. A SPOKESMAN SAID THEY WANT TO CREATE MORE OF A FAMILY ATMOSPHERE. InBev has been trying to sell the entertainment branch of Busch.

Does Miller Park in Milwaukee hawk Bud too???? I doubt it. I have to believe they push their own brand.....MILLER.......right? This is going back to the beer thread here where we all agreed (?) that MLB has only Bud as their official sponser.

I never liked Bud I was a local beer on tap guy, then when I went in the service I expanded out to all those great foreign beers. I was on a plane coming back from Paris in 1968 the stewardess gave me 6 different foreign beers(it is an 8 hour flight). When I asked her for one more she said "I don't think you'll like what I have left" I asked "what it was" and she said "a Bud", I said forget it give me a CC and seven.

I wish we would go back to local beers. The Blue Jays train in Dunedin. They used to sell Labatts. Then all of a sudden two years ago, nothing but Bud products. One of the vendors, who came to Dunedin every spring from Toronto sold his beer saying"get your ice cold labatts sold in Bud cans." THis new company, did they buy the Cardinals as well?

Budwiser is groce. I drank it once in 1992 and it tasted like some alcohol free "beer" after you have drunk a genuine beer. Yuck!
I don't get why Anhauser Busch is allowed to use the name Budweiser. The original Budweiser comes from Budvar in the Czech Republic. It tastes devine. We Dutch would say: Like a little angel is peeing on your tongue...
No offense to you guys, but in general, the US beers that I have tasted weren't that good. One exception: Coors. It has to do with the alcohol percentage. Many of the European beers contain more alcohol (and thus taste better... ).
Why don't we make this a beer forum, with a sidestep to baseball?

My favorite beer is Fosters, followed closely by Moosehead and Dos Equis. And yes Alcohol content certainly affects the flavor. Little angels peeing on your tongue, I like that phrase Chris, very good.

I've been parttaking in a wee bit o' Guinness this winter. Great warm and cold. When I say warm, I don't mean hot........about 55 degrees, otherwise cold is cool. Depends where I store it. In the fridge, of course it's cold, but out in the pantry, it's just right too.

The europeans drink their beer at room temperature, if you go in a bar it is on a sheet of ice but not enclosed so the only thing that gets cold is the bottom. I saw a guy delivering beer in Germany and he would drink a half of pint at each delivery stop, he had those bottles with the rubber plug where you could reclose or reseal the bottle.
