Pretentious joke o' the day
This marks the first time that I'll have posted something on THN that I got in an e-mail forward. I would say it's the last, but I don't know the limits on my own boredom. . .
At a brewery convention somewhere in the U.S., the presidents of four of the major breweries go into a local bar. The bartender asks what he can get for them.
The president of Corona says, "I'll have Corona, the finest beer in the world."
The president of Anheuser-Busch says, "Nothing but the King of Beers for me--a Budweiser!"
The president of Coors says, "I'll have a Coors, the beer made with Rocky Mountain spring water."
The bartender turns to the president of Guinness, which makes Harp Lager, and asks, "And I suppose you'll be having a Harp, sir?"
"Naw," says the president of Guinness. "I'll have a Coca-Cola. Since these guys aren't drinking beer, I probably shouldn't, either."

An Englishman, A Scotsman, and an Irishman are all drinking Guinness in a pub. A fly lands on the lip of the Englishman's pint, and he shoos it away. It flies over and lands on the lip of the Scotsman's pint, and he shoos it away. Finally it lands on the Irishman's pint, who grabs the fly in one hand and begins whacking it with his other hand while screaming "Spit it out, damn you! Spit it out!"

Budweiser from Anheuser-Busch is easily the No. 1 selling beer in the United States and the world. About one beer in five consumed in the U.S. is a Bud. The second best selling beer is Bud Light.
For greater appeal Budweiser tones down the flavor so that it will not offend anyone. Ingredients such as hops, barley malt, corn and rice all affect the flavor of a beer. It is obvious that Budweiser refuses to add enough in to reach the taste threshold of some of the smaller brands because MOST people do not like the taste of strong beer. Some beer drinkers like the taste of hops with others liking the taste of barley malt, that’s why each company has there own blends to satisfy the different taste of different beer drinkers. But the majority of people who drink beer like a lighter tasting beer like Bud their sales statistics overwhelming prove it. That does not mean that your beer is better or worse it is just your personal taste preference. Even the so called beer connoisseurs can not agree on what they consider the best tasting beer, if you ask 5 of them you will get 5 different answers.
The top 5 beer brands ( measured by cases ) sold in the US in 2005 were in order:
Budweiser, Bud Light, Miller Lite, Coors Light, Natural Light.

Translation: Cheap beer sells REALLY well at colleges and universities.

Back and better than ever!

Have you considered getting your taste buds checked???

Budweiser... King of

I agree with Redeemed. Maybe you're coming down with some awful disease of the tongue or something!
