Commercial example of diacetyl?

I believe Trader Joe's distributes Sea Dog ales.

Had a Pilsner imported from India at one of the local ethnic restaurants a little while back that was loaded with buttery flavor. I believe the name was Haywood 5000. It went really well with the heavy curry flavors.

It was a while ago, but I recall getting a huge diacetyl pop from a beer name of "Xingu."
It's from Brazil I beleive...Michael Jackson has written on it before. Also recall diacetyl being pretty prominent in Dragon Stout, a Jamaican stout. Good Luck

I am tasting diacetyl just by reading about diacetyl....

had to give this a bump
I think it's diacetyl, or I got a plain bad batch. I can't say I've ever knowingly experienced diacetyl. Picked up a six-pack of Stite Golden Pilsner today. Supposed to be a "fine German style pils brewed with a patented process". Man, the buttery flavor hits you so hard, it almost tastes spoiled.

Supposedly Pilsner Urquell. I havent had it in a long time, but I dont remember tasting it. However, that is the one commercial example I have heard that has it. Apparently they do it on purpose.

Never tasted it in any PU.

I had a scotish ale a brewpub that was very buttery. That was the first beer where I tasted it and knew immediately there was diacetyl in there.

Never tasted it in any PU.

See post #8.

It is reported that it has it, however, it is not detectable to me.
