DeepThought 0 #4 February 24, 2005 How about a good Bittish Bitter like Flowers, Greenking IPA, Old Speclked Hen etc. And calling Fosters a fancy Import is beyond a joke.... Nothing fancy about that rubish. -------------------------------------------------- You only have one life, make the most of it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SkiD_PL8 0 #9 February 24, 2005 Had to go with corona since that has to be my favorite beer. However when the budget is really tight due to skydiving or whatever I can always revert back to natural lite from my high school days or miller lite. Greenie in training.

Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites AndyMan 7 #20 February 24, 2005 Quote molson (or any other canadian 5% proof) I'm amazed this myth still exists. Mass market Canadian beer is no stronger than its American equivalent. Molson Canadian and Labatt Blue both have the same strength as Bud, MGD, Coors, or virtually any other "regular strength" beer sold on the US market. In the 70's and 80's, Canadian and American beer manufacturers would label their beer differently. Canada would label its beer with Percent Alcohol By Volume, while American beer manufacturers would label it with Percent Alcohol By Weight. The different measuring techniques resulted in a higher number being printed on beer sold in Canadian markets. This myth is encouraged by the higher popularity of micro-breweries in Canada than the US. Canadian micro-breweries do tend to make stronger beer, but they're often not mass marketed. Take for example Unibroue, out of Quebec - who makes great tasting beer like "Maudite" - 8%, La Fin du Monde, at 9%, and Terrible - at 11%. Mass Market Canadian beer is no stronger than its American equivalent, but I suspect that on average, Micro-brews do tend to be stronger. This concludes your sporadic beer accuracy lecture. _Am (former Molson employee, and trained brewmaster)__ You put the fun in "funnel" - craichead.

Largely true. It's ALMOST false. Fosters is technically imported beer, although I suspect most drinkers would be very surprised to know that it's imported from Canada. All of the Fosters product sold on the American market is brewed at Molson's Toronto brewery. Fosters chose to partner with Molson solely so the beer would be brewed in Canada, and could thus legally carry the "imported" label. 90% of Fosters brewed in Toronto is exported to the US.

Molson, Bud Weiser, Corona, Heiniken, Fosters, Sam Adams, and New Castle are so devoid of flavor they shouldn't be considered beer. 2. Nearly all German imports are watery lagers not ales. Their one redeeming virtue is that you can sit in a Biergarten and drink liter after liter. 3. Flat tire is an innocous microbrew for Bud drinkers. Even Boulder Beer's Singletrack tastes better. 4. Guiness is also fairly plain. Try Barney Flats for a real stout. One of my favorite beers is named after me: Arrogant Bastard Ale, 7.2% alcohol by volume. It is quite doubtful that you have the taste or sophistication to be able to appreciate an ale of that quality and depth. http://www.arrogantbastard.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites skycat 0 #25 February 24, 2005 Sunshine Wheat or Blue Moon Wheat.
