    Quote 1. None of the Big 3 have taken a "large financial hit"] because of craft breweries; 1 out of every 2 beers sold in America are still an Inbev product. This is completely false. There has definitely been a financial hit. Domestic beers have been down approx. 7% every year for some...

    Did jesus drink beer

    During the time of Jesus' life beer was common throughout the Middle East. We know that alcohol was much safer to drink then water and that Jesus did drink wine. The bible refers to "strong drink" which was more often then not beer. Wine was normally referred to as "fermented drink." What is...

    Lets look at this from AB or MillerCoors side- 3000 breweries pop up= large financial hit to AB/MC. Financial loss= employee loss. Yes small guys get employment but from AB/MC stance they lose a lot of money. They are attacked on their bases for being "crap" beer by these small companies on a...

    Don't be fooled if a brewery felt they were growing fast enough, had the Capitol, and the market- they would "go after" other breweries! Support other breweries is a business move that many fans of the industry like. At the end of the day these breweries are still businesses and they want money...

    Lets see MillerCoors owns Henry Weinhards, Leinenkugels, Pilsner Urquel, Crispin cider, Killians and I believe part of Terrapin. "Craft beer" will always be around as long as grains and hops grow... These companies get blamed for making a crappy flavorless beer but when they venture out and get...

    I think you missed the point. There is always AB bashing on here while Miller-Coors slips through the cracks. I'm pointing that out and showing how they are similar to AB with the steps they are taking. I agree Leines is ok- not great. Goose island is GREAT even since AB took over. Although I...

    What type of Faucet should I buy?

    Wow after seeing the picture- this is the one that I had ONE experience with at the airport where I replaced something like 18 faucets because that top washer was flemsy and leaked. We fixed it. They poured 8 beers. It leaked. For about 2 months after the new terminal at the airport opened we...

    Your right! But aren't all businesses about running their competitors into the ground? Coke and the small craft sodas- Chevy and studabaker- that's the nature of capitalism. I think they see an opportunity in the craft beer market and they want a part of it. What with domestic brands being down...

    What type of Faucet should I buy?

    I give you credit. We don't have any of these in our market that I know of. We do have one similar but with a plastic slide the 425s. And Perlick did install a faucet very similar that had 3 very flemsy o rings that would shift and leak at random. You had to have them in there just right to stay...

    Budweiser project 12

    Each brewery made a beer and entered it into the contest to see which 3 would make it into the market. As an employee of an AB distributor I gotta say the 3 they put out were not very good. There were a couple of non release ones I liked. The Bourbon cask lager one was one of the better ones...

    I think that AB and Miller- Coors mess up when they jump into the craft industry and make "clean beers. WE WANT DIRTY FULL FLAVORED BEER! I think if that means prices get raised so be it people pay... At least you'll really be competing in the craft market then.

    I think AB respects craft breweries... So much that they are beginning to apply the "craft images" and concepts to their business. If AB didn't respect the craft industry they would have never attempted to implement craft beer into their line up. I look at it from the angle that AB respects, and...

    What type of Faucet should I buy?

    I think my take on faucets is being taken wrong... I think both front and rear sealing are fine faucets. Trust me stems do get stuck on Front sealing faucets as well ( I would know because I have fixed many in the sacramento area ( not nearly as many as rear sealing). Both seal the same way-...

    What type of Faucet should I buy?

    Most bacteria grows at temps of 42 degrees or higher. If your fridge is at 38 and your room is at 72 I guarantee your faucet and the small amount of beer in it is higher then 42. That being said I think the effects will be pretty insignificant unless you are very very anal. I just believe if you...
