It’s not like they were purchased and then they changed the formula. Those beers are definitely representative of average American beer. Of course, they are not representative of the best of American beer, but they are still the top selling. Jupiler is the best selling Belgian beer, but I had never heard of it before I had to look it up to make this point.
Most probably, you are frrrrree to corrrrrect my rrrrrussian engliush any time. i will really appreciate and learn smth
All mass marketed beer is swill, so it makes no sense to diss one nations swill…
The only brew “approaching” mass marketed status that isn’t swill is SA Boston Lager, and I am a fan, even despite drinking many other beers.
Also, I’d say South American beers are worse than American.
This may be true, but German/Belgian swill is infinitely greater than American swill.
Would you rather drink a Paulaner Salvator or a Bud Light? Would you rather have Chimay or a Milwaukee’s Best?
EDIT - I am personally an Ale fan. Don’t particularly like many Lager beers, but SABL is one of the ones that I will enjoy.
IPA = India Pale Ale.
My stepbrother loves them, and even named a turtle IPA in honor of his favorite beer.
Yeah, I know. I’m just trying to shift the blame to our European friends.
Maybe I have not had enough of Euro and american Swill, so you could be right.
Ok this is apples to oranges. Paulaner Salvator and Chimay are not mass marketed yellow water.
I prefer lagers, but most craft drinkers like you like ales. I like the malty lagers like bocks etc…
Btw those who like Belgians, go to Trader Joes, some of their store brand beer is actually brewed by the reputable Belgian style brewer Unibroue in Canada. Look for the big bottles
I love IPAs and ESBs, and sometimes even stouts (but perhaps not in a hot summer day)!
Ivan where ya been preaching the straight troof on fap?!
^ is that all u think about>?
I drink two beers and a cocktail a night.
When I was in my 20’s, drinking was pretty heavy. We were trying to do the models & bottles thing.
So I didn’t count the quantities, but let’s say a big bottle of JD minus shots given to random bishes divided by 4 dudes + the beers. Also back then (up to like 2007) smoking was still allowed in Montréal so we would of course chain-smoke. We’d end up being pretty shit faced and this would happen maybe 2 times per months on average.
I don’t do that anymore. Although I’ll occasionaly drink alot, I try to limit myself at bars and parties, like 4-5 drinks. If I don’t the hangover f**ks me up everytime and I ruin part of my week-end.
I hardly ever drink alcohol on my own.
I think I’m gonna cut back on the drank for the next few weeks, at least. Ease out of the easy drinking holiday time. Gotta kick CFA studying into a higher level and get back to working out more and I can’t do that very well if I’m drinking all the time.
It just seems boring now. Hardly ever touch it
I stopped counting how much I drink about the same time I stopped bragging about how much I could drink. In this season, I drink a good bit. Xmas eve we have a party with a bunch of HS friends and their families. I’m going skiing with the inlaws over NYE, so I’d imagine there will be some decent consumption…depends how annoying the kids are.
I can drink a whole Hennessy fif…some call that a problem but I call it a gift!
On NYE, I’m catching up.
I love drinking. Some of my best memories have involved heavy drinking with friends. Love beer and wine, and now starting to try liquor.
But I limit it to 3-4 drinks/week.
