It is. It’s all watered down. 7% alcohol here, 40% there...



Unlikely.



Could be but not likely Heinekens. The record in Europe for
alcohol content in beer is "Snake Vemon", a Scottish brew
with an alcohol content of 67.5 percent.




Lots of places in the USA beer is limited to about 10%. Have to call it
something else if over that. Ale, malt liquor, etc.

The newest version (2017) of Sam Adams Utopias is 28% alcohol and is
marketed as "high alcohol beer". $200 a bottle. But, you are right,
it is illegal in eleven states. Legal in MA though.

40%? Not really, That is "80 proof whiskey"
The ABV on dutch beer seems to go from the US standard of 4-6% up to
as much as 15% but 10-12% seems to be the norm.
https://www.beeradvocate.com/lists/nl/
Yeast pretty much stops working at 10-12 % so they must be spiking the
beer or using some genetically modified yeast to get to 15%.

Here is a pretty good list of US beers
http://www.efficientdrinker.com/beer/

If you want more alcohol you need to buy malt liquor, really just the
legal term for a malt beverage that is higher than some state limits
for beer but some of these are really mixed drinks. (Grain alcohol,
water and flavoring). Malt beverage is a catch all for something that
is not wine and not distilled liquor.

The 1% are robbing this country of everything.

They are usually providing a service that people eagerly flock to.


And you probably believe that ****, too.

You don't think people want to buy things from Amazon (Bezos), run
Windows PCs (Gates) , yack on Facebook (Zuckerberg) and look **** up
on Google (Page/Brin)? Those are 5 of the 6 richest guys in the US.
Buffett (#3) is just smart enough to get his money out in front of
what people want and cash in on it.


Amazon sells a huge variety of stuff, typically at lower prices than can
be easily found elsewhere, and delivers to your door. Microsoft sells
software for which there are many competing products. Zuckerberg gives
his flagship product away and hopefully properly address FB's security
and privacy issues. There are many competitors for google, and the apps
are given away. That advertisers pay to be on most of these products is
the price one pays for them, the same way one pays for commercial TV and
radio.

Free TV ends up costing the consumer more each year
than pay TV, just in the price they pay for everything advertised on
that TV.


No one forces watchers of commercial TV to buy anything.


But those watchers of commercial TV buy products. And those products pass
along the costs of the company to operate. So who pays the $million bucks
for s Super Bowl advert? Who paid for your salary when you worked for an
Ad agency?


Advertising creates and sustains demand for products and services. How
enlightening of you to admit that. The owners of the agencies I worked
for paid my salary.

Actually advertising creates demand for a higher priced product that
is usually no better than the unadvertised product. It is just about
branding and hype.
That is why Budweiser costs more than Busch but there is actually an
imperceptible difference between them and certainly not two or three
bucks a 12 pack difference in production cost.


Actually, you don't know **** about advertising or marketing, but you
think you do. I wouldn't know about the taste or ingredient similarities
between Busch and Bud, as the three beers I might drink each summer
aren't these brands. I still have two Coronas left over from last
summer. I use Corona as the liquid base in which to steam hot dogs and
sauerkraut.

Let me get this right, You say I don't know **** then you admit you
don't know anything about the examples I cited.
I understand advertising is a good living for those in it but that
cost gets added to the price of the products they promote.


I've seen Bud and Busch TV and print ads, but I'm not much of a beer
drinker. I know, however, that beer is a consumer product and the brands
have many competitors. So, it is not unlike many other consumer
products. My comment about your lack of knowledge of marketing and
advertising stands.


Your expertice comes from your gig as a jingle writer?


I never had a "gig" as a jingle writer. I got to write and produce some
jingles when I worked for a AAAA ad agency.


The ad poeple I know in Chi and NY never heard of you.



By the way, I never worked in Chicago or New York City as an ad person.

That's obvious.

No, no, no. It's the same stuff here as there, and it's not 7%.

"Budweiser has a 5 percent alcohol by volume. However, it’s typically measured by weight, and
therefore will show as 4 percent by weight. Heineken shows a 5.4 percent alcohol by volume rating.
That would translate into a 4.3 percent alcohol by weight. To the untrained or uneducated eye, that
means Budweiser is weaker than Heineken by a full percent.

When you work the math and calculate the alcohol using the same methods, it’s almost the same
content by volume. That’s right, it’s only a measly .3 percent gain in alcohol content. So yes, for
every three Heinekens you drink, you’re getting a full extra percent of alcohol over your Bud
guzzling pals. That just makes you a hog. Nobody likes a hog."
