Heineken sucks. My home made puts it to shame.

Heineken gives me heartburn, even after one.
Samuel Adams Lager. The ultimate beer.

Regional jingoism.



Hardly. Samuel Adams has become a world class beer. Not bad for it's
beginnings as a micro-brewery.

"The brewery has won more awards in international beer-tasting competitions
in the last five years than any other brewery in the world."

I'm a fan of Sam Adams. If in a commercial establishment that doesn't
have draught beer that I like, I'd order a bottle of Sam Adams any
day.

However, there are regional craft brewers that kick Sam Adam's ass all
over the map. We have 10 of them in the Northwest and I'm sure
there's plenty in your neck of the woods too.
