The people who drink Budweiser just drink it to get drunk since its the cheapest beer.

Yea, most of the beer that I've tried was piss water like Bud. Its no wonder I didn't like beer till I was 27 lol. Not to imply I drink that shit, I don't...
If I want beer and I just want it to get drunk, Natural Light... Tastes like water mostly... Much cheaper then bud, and much better tasting.
If I want something I'll enjoy I usually get Blue Moon if its bottled, or Hefeweizen if its draft.
Being in Utah though, I don't have as many choices as some without going out of state. And I'm a lazy bitch so I don't do that often.

We are actually allowed to own guns but we need a license for it. And you have to be a member of a gunclub that can assure the government that you've had the proper training to have one.

A bunch of French revolutions come to mind.
Well it doesn't matter since no guerilla has ever won a war without external support. Originally guerillas were used to soften up the hostile armies to make an actual engagement easier. But a guerilla without the support of an army fights to win a political war, because its virtually impossible to win the actual war.

Long story short...
There was a thread about where to get a program illegally.
I told the OP how to find it, though not where.
I was suspended.
I pm'd the mod who suspended me about it.
He told me I was not to do certain things, or face the consequences...
I told him I wouldn't be censored, and to do what he needed to do.
He banned me.
3 months later I pm'd Brannoc asking to "please unban me".
He agree'd but said any new suspensions = permaban.
I agreed.
I personally thought it was pretty jacked up since I hadn't even technically broken a rule when I was suspended (prior to the ban), but lifes not fair. I agreed to Brannoc's terms so I could post, and not fuck up chances for Bok to get our beta invites.
Note: I am not in any way, shape, or form, complaining about the moderation. I'm just explaining to dudeman what happened. You mods all stand up guys, and I love you all~! :D

No, calling jupiler or carlsberg a good beer is like saying a 2 euro bottle of wine taste as good as/better then a 20 euro bottle of wine. Or cake you buy of some supermarket tastes as good/better than cake of a specialist.

A can here costs like $.20 if you buy a 12 pack which is usually around $2.
Wrong
There is nowhere in the United States you are going to buy Budweiser for 20 cents/avg a can, $2.00 a 12pk. You can't even buy a 6pk of Bud for that.
Now you want to tell us what country you are really from?
It's obviously not the US of A.
Also, look for beer prices to skyrocket, shortage of hops has raised the price of hops, so it's going to get figured in the cost of the brew.

There is an entire slew of beer on that level. PBR is the colledge kid beer. Natural Ice is the ghetto "I like rap" beer, Bush is the "im a lower middle class and down white guy beer" along with like 40 others I cant think of the names. Needless to say they all cost about $7 for a 12 of cans and they are all just as shitty if you are going to rate them on production quality. Taste is left to everyone to decide. Bud isnt cheap by any means. You pay slightly less for a Bud then you do for an import in most bars. You are talking maybee 2$ on a 12 pack maybee compared to some of the German imported bottles.
In the end its all about what you like. Some drive trucks, some drive cars, some like bikes bla bla bla we are all different. I think Buds bragging rights come from it being a local union American made family run buisness for so many years. I mean shit when another product comes along and outsells them they can brag as well but thats not the case. The fact that they did so well and are doing so well without relying on global sales so much says alot. Its not just the beer we are talking about here, its a tradition and a well earned reputation. If your talking about a strong national beer Bud is the dominater. Second in line all the way to 4rth place last I checked rely heavily on sales outside of the home terf. ALOT of Americans drink bud. Way more then any other beer in the states. Loyal patrons I say.

I drink bottled Cider usually but if Im running low on cash I'll buy cans of strongbow, which is still better than that shite in a can that's called lager (Or light beer which is esentially the same).

Australian beers are great as well. VB and Toohey's New taste similar, they're both great. Carlton Drought is nice too but I only had the opportunity to drink it once when I was in Melbourne. I didn't encounter any of these special Belgian type beers in Australia though. Seems it's something only Belgians are really good at.

lol easily pleased
I don't really like it to be honest. I can't remember how it tastes, I haven't had it for a couple years, I just remember it wasn't great.

It's hoegaarden. Doesn't cost that much here.
Best more "commercial" beer in my opinion is Leffe brown.
Yeah that shit wasn't BAD, but it wasn't GOOD. I prefer dark stuff.

In norwegian to double a is the same as å. Gaarden/gården means the farm, though comes from the garden I think.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hoegaarden_Brewery
A hoe is English for a kind of farming tool at least.
lol is this a discussion about whetre the names comes from? who cares, the town dates back to 1000 or something it's prolly means something in old germanic and the spelling is prolly addapted the todays dutch.
from dutch wikipedia
De datief meervoud op um kan men verbinden met een tweestammige Germaanse naam, namelijk hugu + ward. De afleiding op um betekent zoveel als "bij de mensen van", gevolgd door de stamvader. In de antroponymie zijn beide elementen zeer bekend. Hugu betekent "verstand, denkende geest".
Het tweede lid ward is een stam die beschermen betekent.
Zo kunnen we de naam Hoegaarden reconstrueren als Hugwardum, met klankwettige evolutie tot Hoegaarden. Hoegaarden betekent dus oorspronkelijk "bij de mensen van Hugu-ward".
"With the people of hugu-ward" that's what it means. Whoever hugu-ward is.

And it must be the worst "beer" I've ever tasted.
You Americans should try real beer for a change, like Hobgoblin. :)

It's Butt-wiper, get it right next time :D Anyway, I'm sorry you had to experience that. You should drink something like Sam Adams or Yuengling Lager if you're gonna drink American beer. Or skip those and find a good microbrew like Dogfish Head 60 Minute/90 Minute IPA's or Victory Brewing Company's Golden Monkey(It's a Belgian Tripel Ale style).
If you want the best of American beer I'd suggest going the microbrew route. That's where you'll find the traditional European styles, many with their own local twist etc. IMO the best American microbreweries are in the Great Lakes Region(A lot of good ones in Pennsylvania), North East(Mainly the New England region), and Pacific North West(Washington and Oregon), but I wouldn't limit myself to just those areas.

Living in the northeast I don't know of any American in this region who likes bud. It just so happens that anyone who uses it is conditioned to drink it at sports games. Bud has now become ubiquitous with sports like popcorn and movies.
Other than that we've moved on to better things.
Only Rednecks and college students drink budweiser.
Good American Beer:

Ommegang (Reminds me of Trappist)

Sam Adams (Not the Lager, but a lot of their seasonals are good)
http://www.samueladams.com/samsite/styles.html
IMO, the best American beer areas are North Central PA, and Upstate New York.

Beer in norway is even more expensive then in sweden. Some cost $2 a bottle.
And you have to excuse my fellow countrymen, our military sucks donkey ass.
We used to have a large army that included most guys between 18-40 but now it's only a small part of the male population that even get military training.

I'm an american atheist scientist who enjoys strong ipa's and stouts so suck on that european stereotypes of americans.
oh and i'm not fat
edit: don't get me wrong though. sometimes i do enjoy a good pilsner but the regular brands don't do it for me. i normally try to go local, at least by state. my favorite cheap lager is probably lions head if i'm gonna try and save money.

I'd sell my mother into slavery to get some Carlton sent to me. I can get Toohey's New here in a couple places, but that's about it for Aussie beer outside of Fosters, which I'm convinced they export as some kind of sadistic joke.

Can't but agree. It seems some of the worst beers out there are exported en masse and enjoy great publicity while the great beers are sometimes impossible to acquire.
Only tourists drink Fosters in Australia as far as I've seen. Damn Crocodile Dundee!

To sin:
1. To violate a religious or moral law.
2. To commit an offense or violation.
I guess you have never violated anything.
Must be relaxed, living without moral values.

Self made beer takes a lot of effort tbh. And it mostly tastes like crap unless you take it really really serious.

No, didn't look into Aussie rum when I was there. As a good Kentuckian I hate rum and prefer bourbon. Mail me Carlton cold...
