    Now you understand some of the beer snobs on here when we laugh at people who say, "I like craft beer, I drink Elysian/Blue Moon/etc." InBev.
    Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

      Im a bartender...I get a laugh out of that at least once a shift. Then again I laugh at anyone who says stuff like that anyways because they are total ******nozzles but when they name some "microbrew" that is owned by a macro I just cant help but laugh.

            No Euro-Caucasian soccer hero in the mix? Why? There has to be money to be made in that pool.

              Great advice received long ago:

              When all is confused, when left is right, up is down, and nothing makes sense: Stop.
              Take a deep breath.
              Rise above the situation.
              Look down at it objectively ... and follow the money.
              All will become clear.

                          I saw an exceptionally stupid Facebook post asking why Nike didn’t run this ad for Pat Tillman.
