Budweiser Sell out

It looks like the Budweiser Clydesdale's are soon to be replaced by Belgian Draft horses.

Europeans make good beer. Well, at least the Germans do.

Maybe they will begin to brew a beer with some actual taste..InBev brews Bass Ale, which is darn good.

That alone makes you a real man. I was just saying beer in cans is sacreligious.

yall do know bud is contesting this right? something to do with inbev not disclosing everything in their deal and persuading the stock holders wrong.

inbev may not even have the money to fulfill their offer and they own a cuban brewery which could cause complications. look it up.

My point in posting this is: If this happens, it is UN American! Budweiser, the Clydesdale's, the Christmas commercials, the Superbowl commercials..... It will never be the same!! Know what I mean? Oh, and Stealth, sorry I lied. I will drink beer. Bottled is good, tap is better, but if all there is is cans, that will do too! I only drink whiskey when something "ails" me. The trouble is, lately I have had quite a few ailments.
My favorite drink: Iced Tea!
Peace

I'll still get my Budweiser Christmas stein every year. I have the collection going from the first year they started them.

Somehow, to me, this is just more of the erosion of American business if this goes through.

Gotta agree with Mr. Stealth---while I am not a Bud Man, I cannot drink beer out of a can---yeuch! Bottles, or on tap. Something about aluminum makes the beer, at least to me, taste skanky.

OK, so Bud from a can might taste like Clydesdale pee, but the Clydesdale's are owned by Americans!
(Maybe, I am a little overboard on this post, time for a nap)

Eric Idle said that drinking American beer is like having sex in a row boat---"It is awfully %$#$%!!!@# close to water!"
