...that PBR is now nothing more than Budweiser made "cool" for asshole hipsters, you should know that I saw PBR Lite in the store today.

ECH,
knew it was over years ago, the first time he saw PBR in a bottle

WTF? PBR comes in a can or draft, and there is no light alternative. You will never convince me otherwise.

The Fred Meyers on Hawthorne in PDX sells PBR Lite. Lots of asshole hipster bars sell PBR bottles. I will take a picture next time.

If you don't want to be lumped in with asshole hipsters (and there is NO other kind), I'de suggest switching to Busch.

I don't drink PBR much anyway, but I am definitely getting sick of it showing up EVERYWHERE. I should switch to Schlitz.

Grolsch?

:x

:hashishim:

no but seriously, unless you're getting some kind of weak-assed foreign mutant import kind of Grolsch, it seriously is one of the fucking best pilseners out there. How many percents of alcohol does it have? (should be 5% ABV) Do you get the bottles with the funky "brace" swing-top cap?

I would almost say it is the best Dutch pilsener, except there are a couple others that also rank pretty high IMO that have their own unique taste characteristics so I can't say which one I like best. But if I had to pick one it'd be Grolsch.

Give up trip you're talking to a nation that managed to turn budweiser into fizzy pisswater. They know significantly less than nothing.

I like Grolsch and Budwesier.

I can only assume we keep the good stuff over this side of the Atlantic.

There's two budweisers over here - the americanised one (yellow water with fizz in) and the original (think it comes from fkin transylvania or some shit)

You'll know if you're drinking the original because you can, y'know, taste it. And, more importantly, get drunk on it.

It's Czech IIRC, and yeah, it is good stuff.  It used to be on special quite a lot when I was at University, and especially after exams, I'd stock up on it and enjoy just relaxing on the beach with a few bottles.
