Budweiser

[blackford]

Looks like Budweiser has gone patriotic for the 4th...

What do you think of the special edition for the holiday?

[Bubba Smith]

That's a nice looking can. They look even better after eyeballing about 12 cans.

[huskerdirt]

Its actually part of the folds of honor program. 5 cents of every budweiser case sold will go towards supporting military families in need. Special edition cans will run till about a week after the 4th of July.

Sure makes me want to go out and pick up a 6er or two, just ta show my patriotic supporter of this fine County we all call home...

Can't think of a better way to quench my thirst,and how good it would look in my hand!!!

See what I'm sayin here?

Nice can, but no thanks. I'd rather spend my money supporting REAL AMERICAN brew companys no forign owned right now.

[huskerdirt]

Good luck with that..... Miller-nope Coors-nope.

Not impressed. I have no problem with clothing with the flag theme, but wrapping a beer can in a flag as a way to sell it? Seems like nothing is sacred in this nation any more. Anything for a dollar.

[p-towne]

Using a flag is unacceptable. Using red-white-Blue bunting is acceptable.

Busch was born in 1839 in Kastel, then a district of Mainz in the

Grand Duchy of Hesse.


He was the second youngest of 22 siblings.

The family worked in winery and brewery supplies.

He attended the Collegiate Institute of Belgium in Brussels,


and left his home in 1857 with three of his brothers for St Louis;


Nuthin like the Ol Red White & Blue.....& a bunch of HISTORY MAJORS....

Thanks for the information. I would have never guessed the Busch family were immigrants... in a nation of.... immigrants.....

plenty of beers out there, but maybe not for wallfart shoppers. they do cost a little more than the comerical brands. but its money better spent in my op.

Actully the big brands have been slowly losing market shares to the local brands, that they started having there lobbyist get "THE PERSONS WE CAN'T TALK ABOUT" to try and regulate them out of bizz.

I bet if one was to use a search engine to look they probalby could find plenty of options. Buy American while you still can.

The persons we can't talk about? That's a good one!!! Maybe we could talk about why we can't talk about those people that we can't talk about!

[blackford]

Yeah, God forbid we wrap Old Glory around a beer can on the Good Old USA's Birthday, but you'll come on a Internet forum and bitch about the County, and how it's run!!

No matter where the flag is or what it's on, it's showing the colors that represent us... Americans! You don't like how this Country is run or where the flag is being displayed... get the hell out of the USA, take their flag and stick it where you like!!!


God Bless the USA, and the beer that represents it!!

[roman]

I don't really care that a can a beer is wraped in OUR flag, its that BUD not the beer that represents US anymore!!!! Unless being forigned owned is what you consider to pass for American now, then you've already left us.

Its a sales gimmick nothing more nothing less Blackford lighten up.
