The King of Beers?
  • In Praise of Budweiser (contains extended footnotes)
  • A Better Brew which contains the line: "I asked the brewmaster, Jean-Marie Rock, which American beer he likes best. He thought for a moment, squinting down his bladelike nose, and narrowed his lips to a point. Then he raised a finger in the air. 'Budweiser!' he said. 'Tell them that the brewer at Orval likes Budweiser!' He smiled. 'I know they detest it, but it is quite good.'"

It still tastes like someone soaked bread in water for a day.

I've always thought so, but I'm interested in seeing if my opinion changes. I've spent the last 9 months drinking the national lagers of different countries, and I've gradually come to enjoy them. I'm guessing they're all the same, Budweiser included.
