Also for the record I do still consider myself a beer snob.
Have you ever seen beer wars? Budweiser is evil."
At which point I felt the need to make him feel a little stupid by explaining how difficult it is to make that style of beer. And while it may not be to my taste they make it because people like it.

Similarly, a former employee of Four Corners Tavern Group tells Crain's that Chicago Beverage agreed to pay Four Corners at least $30,000 to get tap space in its bars and to keep Budweiser out for a year. Four Corners operates the Brownstone, West End, Schoolyard, Gaslight, Sidebar, Kirkwood, Benchmark and Crossing bars on Chicago's North and Near West sides. Four Corners is an Illinois corporation owned by Matthew Menna, and Mr. Menna is listed as an officer of several of the bars, state records show.
