That would seem to be the first step. Checking the alcohol content is


a trivial process. I wonder why they did not try to get independent


analysis.




I always assumed the bottle cost more than the beer and the contents


was pennies to them anyway








I know nothing about beer brewing or the expense attached to commercial

beer brewing. I do know the few times I "taste-tested" Bud's U.S.

brands, I thought they were ****y. A decade or so ago, I was at a

pavilion in Orlando, maybe at SeaWorld, where the makers of Bud were

offering free samples of all their beers. It was very hot that day, and

I got in line a few times. I didn't like any of the offerings.



It's not a snob thing. I'm not much of a beer drinker. If I have a beer,

and I have a choice, I'll pick a Mexican or Japanese beer. I did have a

favorite "local" beer from Mexico, which is the only place I've ever had

one, but I read somewhere the brand was "absorbed" by a bigger brand in

that country.




Funny...way back in the day we used to laugh at the little yanke sailors who'd get buzzed off a few of our beers.
At that time 'merican beer was ****y and ours... a man's ale supposidly a couple percent more alcohol.
