Budweiser renames its beer "America"

When believing is more fun, I choose to believe.

I always find it somewhat amusing that Budweiser was founded by a German immigrant brewer attempting to popularize the European Budweis style of beer in America in a time where dark beers were preferred. Now it’s basically become synonymous with shitty American beer.

I was going to chastise you, since I made that pun first.

But then I realized that it never hurts to double Czech.

Seconded. Between homebrewers and local craft brewers, good beer is becoming damned easy to find in the US. Granted, there’s always the cooler column taken up by the piss-level brews (Natty light/ice, Coors, Bud, Bud Lite, etc.), but the local beer scene’s share of cooler space is definitely growing by leaps and bounds.

That will require another petition to rename David Attenborough as “The United States of America”.

No, we already have one of those.

The new petition will be to rename David Attenborough as “Budweiser.”

Have you been drinking America, cause that might explain that…

That’s what I wonder every time I hear how well Trump’s election campaign is going.

But of course A-B has a marketing department! It’s almost as big as the company’s legal department.

Clever. Fiendishly clever.

Not to mention a number of fine regional breweries.

Yes. Life is too short to drink tasteless beer.
But I have to admit when I was in the Czech Republic in the mid 90s with some Canadian friends one of them (a beer fancier) only wanted to drink the Tmave (dark) beer and never once tried the lagers.

Waiting for someone to point out that Anheuser-Busch no longer exists. It was bought by InBev, which renamed itself Anheuser-Busch InBev and remains headquartered in Leuven.

Leuven is most definitely not in America.
