This mustard *****

 

[FTowne1]

It's dumb that people will boycott buying beer from AB/InBev or Coors/Miller, but they're perfectly ok with supporting Amazon.

 

[litheum94]

I try not to buy anything put out by ABInBev.

What about Chik Fil A?

[Lutter]

Coors Banquet Beer is better than 99% of the **** that craft breweries dare to call "lager" nowadays.

DAT CORN SYRUP INFUSION Y'ALL.

 

[WhalezB4Rarez]

What about Chik Fil A?

#spillover

I have no idea if Chick-Fil-A is buying up other established fast food chains and using their power to put those brands in new markets and push out local competition and/or offering a free keg of Bourbon County if a bar buys 10 kegs of Bud Light in order to push out a local stout but please feel free to show me evidence if you have any.

My wife HATES mustard. Something about a traumatic experience whe she was 6 yrs old involving her 12 yr old sister and a “refrigerator door milkshake.”

It’s a pretty gruesome tale, and to this day she can’t stand the smell of anything that was in that milkshake except Hershey’s syrup. Mayo, mustard, ketchup, pickles, pickle relish, pickled peppers, chow chow, Russian dressing, etc. Pretty much anything you might find on those shallow shelves of your fridge door.

I once tried moving the mustard to the main compartment of the fridge, but this did not change her attitude toward the condiment.

Mustard is a yes on Skyline coneys (sandwiches) but no on 3 or more ways. Hope this helps.

So yes to mustard on this.

And no to this.

"Same ****, different toilet"

 

[pen15clubmember]

Welp, now I'm hungry. Some locations also offer chilitos, which are just chili and cheese in a flour wrap. Good for on-the-go intake.

 

[Lutter]

Skyline Chili is so ******* disgusting **** you Cincinnati.

Ain’t that a bitch. Also, after AB/InBev bought Northern Brewer, it put several small local homebrew stores around me out of business due to cost cutting.

You're allowed to be wrong but you don't need to be so angry about it.

Would eat those hot dog sandwiches...

Would pass on that skyline chili. I just can't bring myself to eat that.

Michael Jackson was a wise and good man, and we all owe our fanaticism to him in one way or another and whether we know it or not. But I can’t help to think he would have spoken out about the evils (perceived or real) of what we are seeing with modern acquisitions.

I think he'd definitely be against industrial brewers buying out craft brewers, and then using acquired craft to fill up shelf space, choking out local brands. I think he'd be against the practice of filling tap space with acquired beer, often sold at cheaper prices to bars in order to make the whole proposition more attractive. Certainly, he'd be against buying producers of the raw materials and distributors that help to make the whole system work.

Would he be against an acquisition that allows the brewery in question to buy better equipment, improve quality control, expand reasonably, etc. I'm not sure why he would.

 

[Contemplatebeer]

I would imagine that unless you are a staff member, you really couldn't answer question 1 accurately.

Also question 2 seems loaded to me. Personally, I can't think of a big brand that acts that way consistently.

Question 3, I would find it unusual if there wasn't a similar beer made by a craft producer. Availability to you would probably be more important. Even then, pricing is likely cheaper for the big boy brand.

Personally, I tend to avoid the beers I know have been acquired and stick to local because it's fresher for me. There are exceptions like bcbs and some Belgians.

Also Koops for mustard. Currently have Dijon, yellow, dusseldorf, brown, and stone ground in my fridge.

There's definitely a limit to what we can reasonably know, and that's something always worth considering. I can't imagine a time where I'm happy to buy any beer, any time regardless of the producer. In fact, there's only one brewery I'm considering in this current exercise: Asahi, who owns both Urquell and Fullers. From what I can find, they seem to fit pretty well into the criteria I've laid out from what I can know.

$5 Asahi 1L cans were my go-to during undergrad. I still enjoy them.

It's time for a new hobby vice.

It's time for a new hobby vice.

I read that to mean there will always be breweries he avoids, not all beer in general.

 

[2plums4one]

I thought this thread was going to be about how to store my magnums.

 

[WhalezB4Rarez]

Look at the elites in here with their fancy mustards.

 

[gregkoko]

Mustard is abhorrent. Please move to toxic topics forum

 

[user 306926]

I suspect that most people don't really care about who owns their favorite brewery(ies). It won't be the first time I've been exposed to such perspectives.

I wouldn't ask the question on a public forum unless I was interested in a variety of answers.

I've venture that 95% of the folks on here KNOW and don't care, or know and drawn a line in the sand and don't care to discuss the benevolence of said contemplation.

mods plz change title to mustard appreciation
