Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy. -- Ben Franklin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Gleason Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 You wouldn't know the sales are slipping by lookng into my beer fridge or beer cellar! I didn't read the article, but does it mention the malternatives being part of the blame. My wife loves those Smirnoff Twisteds, and buys those instead of the wussy beers now.

mmmmmbeeer Posted January 12, 2005 Share Posted January 12, 2005 "Miller Brewing Co. President Norman Adami said, "The single biggest threat facing the American beer business today is the possibility that we will allow the American consumer to get bored with beer." I can't imagine how people could possibly get bored by piss water. I think you're absolutely right Jim, the better brews are probably doing very well, hopefully this will cause the s*** beermakers to start making better beers.
