The lies and deciet abound!
One of my customers gave me an ( almost) beer today. It was a Coors Light. Not wanting to be rude, I took it with me. On my way home, I picked up a 32 oz. Tecate to drink while I fed our horses.
Ponies fed, I withdraw to my shed for some darts, a little Bob Marley, etc. When the Tecate was gone, I moved to the Coors Light. After the big beer, I figured I wouldn't be able to taste it anyway. I was right.
Around the top of the can was the legend:Frost Brew Liner- Locks in refreshing frost brewed Rocky Mountain taste. It's an aluminum can with a blue lining! Does blue somehow lock in the absence of flavor? Man! That's special!
I drank a Steel Reserve a while back. They claim that they use twice the hops and brew twice as long for twice the gravity. I didn't know that hops affected the gravity. Most people who don't brew would be impressed by that and think they had something special.
My point is this( finally!): They sell billions of gallons of beer every year. There's people who buy it because the color of the can matches their outfit. Why make up some BS to go along with it? Why not some honesty. Maybe something like: " It doesn't really taste like anything but you don't know any better!" or " Look, an aluminum bottle!"
I feel much better just getting this out. Thanks.
