Bud




Was looking for something different yesterday and ran across these beers at the local Class Six. It appears Anheuser-Busch has gotten into the specialty beer market with its release of a Michelob variety pack (includes a Pale Ale, Bavarian Wheat, Marzen and Porter). In the center, we have the 2007 Brew Masters' Private Reserve--a rich, malty Doppelbock that features a toasted malt flavor and ruby red highlights.

I was just on the Anheuser-Bush website and noticed all the specialty and so-called microbrews they're producing. They also have a big hand in the import market. They practically own the American beer market.

Reviews to follow...

Not surprising. But alas, beer is losing its market share to wine.

Wow, I've missed a lot of posts...

I thought you had pulled a TP and abandoned your blog...

Guess I've been buried under the books...

Merry Xmas!

yes, but wine is a fad...a yuppy thing that will pass. Americans have always been beer drinkers, starting with our brewer-patriot founding fathers.

And what's wrong with wine? (You do know that we are the 4th largest wine producing country?)
