"Anheuser-Busch used to make really good beer. Then they switched from making beer to making an image, a brand, and the focus of the company went towards maintaining that brand instead of maintaining the process of making good beer. Now their beer is less tasty than I imagine horse-piss to be, in my opinion at least, and the company has reduced the entire process down to the lowest possible denominator." Anheuser-Busch was bought in 2008 by Belgium-based InBev, the largest beer maker in the world (25% of the world market) and is no longer a U.S. company. InBev was able to make this purchase because everybody in the States started drinking Stella Artois (remember that???) in 2006-2009 to impress their dates with their good taste (it's packaged like champagne) and basically sunk good old Bud. We are still recoiling from the results. "...I suppose that's what happens when you're being left dangling this long." Hey, I was gone for ONE DAY. You guys seem to be getting along fine without me, Chip & Andy haven't posted so many brilliant responses in years! And Lucas the V is back too! |
