Per Peter Lucas (SAS RET):
>What do Urine and american Beer have in common? >They both taste the same going in and comming out!! The German side of my family refers to our beer as "****wasser". Bad rap as far as I'm concerned bc the most noticeable fault of American beers like Bud and Coors is the *lack* of taste - **** or otherwise. There are, IMHO, some enjoyable American beers. But they're smaller brands - some of which are even claimed thb brewed in accordance with the old German "Purity Law" - as in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reinheitsgebot -- PeteCresswell |

No. It's as American as it gets. For commercial, watery, fairly tasteless beer, it's the best of the bunch. It's great for canoeing/ kayaking because you can get it in cans. > > Arfa --Bryan |

We Americans like our beer mediocre. At the end of Prohibition there were something like 700 commercial breweries operating in the US. Today if you don't count the micros, there are what? Three big nationals? Anheuser Busch, Coors and Miller and they are owned by huge conglomerates. There are a few medium sized regional brewers like Linenkugel and Yuengling still around, but I don't know if they're still independent or not. We Americans don't really do beer anymore.

The goal to consuming beverages that contain alcohol is to get drunk! Otherwise i would rather have a glass of ice tea if I wanted taste. The lighter tasting beers makes it easier to get that buzz. -- Enjoy Life... Nad R (Garden in zone 5a Michigan) |

I am, by the way, a teetotaler.
The story goes that American beers were once "better". But during WWII, they were lightened to appeal more to females, who had become a larger percentage of the drinking population (the males being away at war). No reversal to the original taste occurred after the war. Coors is certainly among the worst major brands. In my light-drinking days, I tasted Coors and decided I'd rather drink plain water. "Sam Adams" makes strong claims for the quality and character of their beers. One of their light beers supposedly won a first prize in a German contest where there was no light-beer category. There is a "Discovery" series "Brewmasters", though the title should be "Brewmaster", as the focus is on a single brewery, Dogfish Head, which makes all sorts of beers that would never pass the German purity standards. (What is this about Germans and purity, anyway?) Dogfish Head is an odd company that doesn't seem to be paying attention to simple common sense. In one episode they discover that a filler tube on one machines has disappeared, presumably into a bottle. Not wanting to discard the run, which would cost them thousands of dollars, they open the cases and check the bottles one by one. I was startled. Most food companies have a metal detector somewhere near the end of the line to prevent such problems. (I might give them a call.) |

A few years back, when you asked for a Mich in a restaurant, that's what you got. It was about on a par with some of the 'better' lagers here in the UK. Now, it seems that you get a Mich Ultra by default. Is that actually the only one from them in a bottle now? I don't get over there often enough to really know. I found the Ultra a bit of an 'acquired taste'. It certainly tastes a lot weaker than other versions that I had previously drunk, but doesn't actually seem to be. It is a lot less 'rounded' in taste - a bit thin and 'crisp' - but never-the-less, quite a pleasant refreshing drink with a meal. Once you've let it warm up just a bit from the almost-frozen state that it gets delivered to your table in, that is ... For plain old 'throwing a few beers down your throat' it's hard to beat good old Bud. Just about strong enough to qualify, and quite a pleasant taste. Bit gassy, but tolerable. Do you get Stella Artois over there ? Or Kronenbourg 1662? They are nice tasty lager beers. Arfa |

(What is this about Germans > and purity, anyway?) It is interesting that the vaunted German beer purity law of 1516 specifies only barley, hops and water; no yeast ..http://brewery.org/library/ReinHeit.html According to http://www.xs4all.nl/~patto1ro/reinheit.htm "No-one in the world brews according to the Reinheitsgebot. Everyone (with the exception of the lambic brewers who disqualify themselves on other grounds) uses yeast as well ..... Even if you don't deliberately add it, you'll find it pretty difficult to brew beer without yeast." -- James Silverton Potomac, Maryland Email, with obvious alterations: not.jim.silverton.at.verizon.not |

When you grow up, you'll find that many people drink beer or wine for the taste and how well it goes with certain foods. Like pizza and beer, crabs and beer, red sauced pasta and wine, etc. Many of us never drink enough to get a buzz, nor do we want to. |

Minhas also makes beer for Trader Joe's -- $3 for a sixpack of cans. TJ's used to carry Huber products back in the day. |

I like beer, wine and liquor. I have certainly consumed lots of it over the years. I have never once set out to get drunk. I don't even like getting drunk. I usually cut myself off after a couple drinks to avoid intoxication. |

"Peter Lucas (SAS RET)" wrote in message ... What do Urine and american Beer have in common? They both taste the same going in and comming out!! Some American draught beers are really tasty. American bottled beer tends to be just beer. Drinkable, if you are thirsty. There are a few notable exceptions. http://www.hopsaficionado.com/ |

It's also paddling a canoe beer. It's fairly low in alcohol, and it comes in cans. Bottles are illegal on steams in MO. --Bryan |

They would come back with a trunk full of the stuff and it was a big thing to go to a "Coors party". The first time I got to taste one I said "if we did not have horse shit here would you drive to Idaho to buy it"? They were quite offended and needless to say I was no longer invited to any more Coors parties. My loss I'm sure. -- GUN CONTROL: The theory that a woman found dead in an alley, raped and strangled with her panty hose, is somehow morally superior to a woman explaining to police how her attacker got that fatal bullet wound. |

I brought over some > killian's red once and they couldn't take it...too "beer tasting" It's kinda understandable, if all one has ever drank is canoe beer. I admit I was not a serious connoisseur of good beer when I first met my brewing mentor. One beer I now dearly love (Bigfoot), tasted so horrible to me the first time I drank it, I spit it out and poured rest down the drain. Now I wait for it (seasonal) in giddy anticipation, every year. My brewing buddy spent the better part of a year introducing me into the intricacies of fine beers. Little by little, ever more robust flavorful beers like ales and porters, after creeping up on them from behind well brewed lagers. I've done the same to my friends. If they don't take to a more flavorful beer at first, back off and come at 'em from another direction. Much of it is just perception. Many people are surprised to discover some dark stouts are no more strong tasting than, say, a German lager. Just cuz the beer is almost black, they automatically assume it's very strong and malty tasting, which is not always the case. OTOH, some people are jes plain stubborn and will give up their cherished conoe beer. Just forget it, cuz you'll never change their mind. nb |
