Question: "Great American Lager"!.!.!. Should Budweiser change its slogan now that it's a Belgian company!?
What do you think!? Is the slogan false advertising!?Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
It shouldn't have been allowed to call itself that to begin with!. There are SO many better American Lagers out there!. Sam Adams, Brooklyn, Straub, Yeungling, Bell's, Rogue, Totally Naked, Coastline and Kelly's Irish are just a few!.

As far as it being a false slogan!.!.!.well I think you know my feeling on that all ready!. But anyway!. It is still brewed in the US, by American Workers!. So they can do whatever they want!. Hell, Guinness still calls itself an Irish Stout and it's brewed in Canada!. I don't see anybody up in arms about that!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

It's still brewed in America, by American workers, largely for American drinkers!. If you require the Bud slogan to change, then you should also have to change all the Amoco (American Oil Company) stations to something else, because most of their fuel now comes from the Middle East!.

Anheuser-Busch isn't like the so-called American Auto Manufacturers, who actually move all their industrial jobs overseas and employ more Mexicans than Americans!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

They should just say the Great American Sell Out!. It's no longer an American beer, not that it was a great beer to start with!.

Then get rid if the Clydesdale and use Brabant (yes I know the Clydesdale is from Scotland but why not use your countries horses to advertise your beer!.)

Then change the color of the can to Black Yellow and Red!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

It was false advertising to being with!. Calling it "great" is like saying Pinto cars are as much a chick magnet as a Ferrari!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

It can still use "American" since it will continue to be brewed in the U!.S!. by American workers!.

I have more of a problem with them using the word "Great"!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
