Ever notice how we in Canada refer to the word "beer" in both singular and plural?

Canadians say ...."We are going for some beer" while the Americans say "We are going for some beers." Everybody knows that Canadian beer is better anyway (had to say that..... so let the flaming begin).

I figure after the first beer they all taste the same. I love the price of beer in the US and my brand is Coors Light.

But I'm still a proud Canadian-To our Hockey Team in Salt Lake-kick ass and come home with the gold medal!!!!

Trois Pistoles was launched in June of 1997. It contains 9% alcohol and is brewed with roasted malt. Its rich, smooth texture, and the presence of yeast used for in-bottle refermentation give it a very distinctive flavour.

This dark beer and has an aroma of ripe fruit and a pleasant aftertaste that lingers like old port wine.

Trois Pistoles can be enjoyed before a meal or after, and is excellent with pasta as well as game meat and wild fowl.

It also enhances the flavour of desserts like chocolate mousse and fruit salad, and can even replace coffee as an after dinner drink.

Ohhh B-24s.. I like!

Exactly, women were entering the work force and the war effort took all the good grain (barley). So they killed to birds with one stone; made a weak beer that appealed to the new work force (women) and used rice to create alcohol without any additional flavors. The war lasted long enough that the machinery and processes had been optimized for rice beer, so they just left it. Besides rice is cheaper than barley and without the barley flavor less hops are required for bittering therefore even cheaper!

Thats why I say mainstream american lager is the Honda Civic LX of the beer world.

Budweiser = Made with rice
Honda = Ricer

Bud = made cheap for the masses
Honda = made cheap for the masses

Bud = Most popular beer b/c consumer doesn't know better
Honda = Most popular car b/c consumer doesn't know better

Bud = gets you from sober to drunk cheap
Honda = gets you from point a to b cheap

 

[llama_boy]

One thing I forgot to mention positive about the big rice beers. They promote racing of all kinds, and that is a very good thing.

 

[Nasty Bob]

One thing is very sure, I'll never, never, never drink a damn Budweiser.!!!!

I hauled a few loads of Bud back in the 80s and it didn't matter if I loaded at Van Nuys, Ca., Greeley, Colo. or St. Louis, Mo., they were all total pricks!!!

Never have I hauled freight where they treat you like pond scum as Anheuser-Busch treats outside carriers. I have a million complaints and I vote my displeasure by buying anything but Budweiser!
