Sale of Budweiser?!


Question: Sale of Budweiser!?
So are you loyal enough to America and Apple Pie to switch from Budweiser to an all american brew now!.Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
As a St!. Louisian in the city most affected by the sale, I will continue to drink A-B InBev products to help the people that are employed locally brewing the beer and in the US in general making the beer!. It's not as if they are going to start making the beer overseas, and boycotting them will cost American jobs!.

It's not as if any of the big conglomerate beers are American owned anymore and although I enjoy drinking craft beers as well, I don't see why I can't enjoy a Bud now and thenWww@FoodAQ@Com

Patriotism and my choice in beer very rarely have much to do with each other!. I'll keep supporting the human tradition of quality brewing one craft beer at a time though, regardless of origin!. The way I see it if people really gave a sh*t about drinking a truly American product they would have put down the Budweiser and picked up a local 6-pack ages ago!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Well spoken Alesmith!.

Truly, if people were that concerned about "American made" they wouldn't have been buying Bud in the first place!. With international investors and holdings in breweries all over the western hemisphere AB was hardly a truly American company!.

If you truly wish to support American brewers GO LOCAL!. Your local microbrewery employees people from your community and pays taxes that support your community!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Get used to it, Fyrefyter, there's 3 or 4 of them that troll around Beer, Wine & Spirits with this know-it-all, annoyingly better-than thou attitude!.

On to the question! I don't drink Bud, but AB makes a really nice beer called Shock Top, it's a belgian brew with honey and spices!. I will buy it regardless of where it's made!.

AB said that there would be no job losses due to the InBev takeover, btw!. They had already been planning on downsizing by offering early retirement and freezing hiring, however!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Sauce Monster you're a beer snob and a tool!.

Now on to answer the question!. None of AB's products will change!. InBev or whatever it's called didn't buy AB to change anything!. They bought it to make their own conglomerate bigger and wealthier because regardless of beer snob tools AB sells a lot of friggin' beer!.

Yes I'll keep buying and drinking Bud Light and Bud Select and a few other AB products I enjoy!.

Did I mention that Sauce Monster is a beer snob and a tool!?Www@FoodAQ@Com

I've never been a Bud drinker!.

When an American brewery can produce a Pilsner beer on a par with Bitburger, Warsteiner or Paulaner, I'll start drinking American beer!.

Same goes with Ales - stop it already with these ridiculously over-hopped, charmless, dirty-tasting micro-brews!.

There, I feel better now!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

No!. But not so much as a patriotic issue and not because it is good or bad but because it is not my regular choice!.
I have and do drink Bud but I do not buy it (rarely)!. But as a matter of mild protest I will seek certain beers I have not had before!. This will fill the void in a much more flavorful way!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Not really, I'm a Miller Lite fan & they've been foriegn owned for what, almost (or over, I don't keep track) a year now!. You failed to mention an All American brew, did you mean 1 step above microbrewery!?

As long as the jobs stay stateside it's cool w/me!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Nope!. Bud Light has been my beer of choice for way to long to switch!. When I do drink something else is Corona, LOL

But my beer choice notwithstanding, I am a fiercely loyal American!Www@FoodAQ@Com

I never really drank Bud anyway!.!.!.

I asked a similar question!.

Nope!. I don't drink beer anyways!. Hard liquor only!. So I could care less about bud being sold to another company!. From what I've heard the American owners weren't doing that great job anyways!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
