Is Anheuser-Busch finally seeing the light?
40-SOME YEARS AGO, A-B DID A TERRIBLE THING to their beers. They started using rice in place of some of the barley malt in their brewing process. It was always my opinion that they did this in order to effectively kill the true beer taste so that they could market the product to people who don’t like beer.
They recently announced that they are going to restore the Michelob brand to its original recipe - no rice. Maybe the 16% drop in sales had something to do with it. And maybe we’ll get a drinkable beer from them again.

Mr. Firegeezer,
I am quite disbelief that you think Budweiser is not a drinkable brew.
I prefer this grog because of its’ ability to numb my soul and not interfere with the movement of my bowls.
From my angle, Budweiser, is the “King of Beers”, especially when you consider that I consume a quarter barrel weekly.
Looking forward to your reply…..jimmyt
