I have been brewing beer for over 20 years and I will say that Budweiser is a well-made beer. However the beer ingredients to water ratio is so low that you might as well serve it ice cold so that any chance of flavors being sensed by a human is nil. Oh wait.

Also, by observation, I am fairly certain that any kind of Lite Beer causes brain damage I am applying for grant to study this and will probably need a few dozen college students.

Do the microbreweries have a trade association with the money to run an ad denouncing Budweiser as 'rice beer'?

I don't have an issue with "macro breweries", I do have an issue with shitty, gawdawful beer like Budweiser.

Why yes, I am a Canadian beer snob, why do you ask?

So Budweiser thinks craft beer drinkers are gonna switch over to their canned piss just so they won't seem wussy? Sounds like a winning strategery to me.

Let's explore some other creative ads using this "reasoning"! Drive Ford Trucks, unless your penis is just too small! Craftsman: Watch out for your thumbs, girlie-man! Are you one of those elitist snobs who eat free-range chicken? Why, when there's McNuggets - now with even more beaks-n-feet!

Gee, I thought the hipsters were all drinking PBR, a brew that makes Bud taste "fruity" by comparison.
