Michelobe now makes a Bavarian Wheat and a Marzen. I'm on the Hefe now. It tastes like michelobe with hefe yeast.

McKBrew said:If BMC develops a few varieties of beer, they can probably stop most emerging beer conniseurs from trying anything but their product.
They are already doing it, with things like Bud World Select, etc... Maybe some of these are actually good beers, but it seems to me it is more like an attempt to run the micros/craft out of business.
david_42 said:Actually, in many states BMC has the means to kill micros: it's called distribution. You dominate the distributors and prevent them from carrying other products. Of course, this is exactly what three tier laws are trying to prevent and equally of course, it makes the task easier for BMC. I'm really amazed that micros manage so well around here, as they are restricted to ONE outlet other than their pub without going through a distributor.
I will take a ziegen bock over a piss water (Shiner) any day of the week.EdWort said:/blowing hefe through the nose all over screen & keyboard.
No f'ing way!

I can't wait to try it.....NOT!
Cheesefood said:I couldn't finish the Bavarian Wheat. Honestly, how does an American beer in a brown bottle get skunked? It's not like it had to travel overseas on a boat, it was brewed a few hundred miles from my home. It's a 4 hour drive from St . Louis to Schaumburg, and they couldn't have some skunk prevention measures in place?

So did I. It tasted like skunked Bud to me. Ick.matt31 said:Ashamed to say I once bought the world select, thinking it might be good.
Tasted exactly like budweiser.
