Gibbo Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Just caught this on my Facebook feed and had a bit of a laugh. I know they're in the business of selling lots and lots of beer (and they probably will, regardless), but is taking a shot at craft and microbreweries really the right way to do that? Had a good chuckle at the confession that "We'll be brewing us some golden suds" -- is that because it tastes like fizzy dishwater? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerlust Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Hi Gibbo. That's Budweiser's way of illustrating the craft beer market is starting to make a dent in their profits! I admit I'm not much of a fan of Grid Iron. A game that has 4 x 15 minute quarters, yet takes some 5hrs+ to complete is not really my thing. STOP, START, STOP, START, TIMEOUT (We don't know what we are doing!), AD BREAK......(Repeat several thousand times) = Boring. I did however watch the end of the Superbowl. It took over ¼ of an hour to complete the last 1:50secs of the game!! And at the end of all that, you get to watch a heap of steroid abusers (but apparently legal!), guys with a bigger belly than mine (still called "athletes"!), & guys that could probably hold their own wrestling a grizzly bear, cry & blubber all over each other & thanking God for helping them make the play of the day! I'll pass thanks. Lusty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LunaticSoup Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 I think Lusty just summed up grid iron perfectly. MURRRICA! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hairy Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 I enjoy the NFL and I am a Patriots fan too As for Bud, given the ongoing trademark disputes, I don't think they can say there is only one Budweiser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gibbo Posted February 2, 2015 Author Share Posted February 2, 2015 Yeah, we give the American bloke at work a bit of stick about it. Always asking him how many wickets each side has, which yard line you need to shoot from to score a 3-pointer, and how many innings between end-changes. Never understood the sport, not sure I ever will/want to... RE: the craft breweries, apparently the Budweiser parent company just acquired Elysian Brewing in Seattle?

That bit, and the bit where the guy starts pouring the beer over his head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
