Budweiser has a new name, and that name is America - Polidicks

[quote]Let's just get this out of the way quickly because you're probably not going to understand it the first time I say it: Budweiser is renaming its beer "America." The beer Budweiser will henceforth be known as America. When you gingerly lift a tall boy of Budweiser out of your bodega's fridge, what you'll really be lifting is a tall boy of America. Got it? Budweiser, the King of Beers, will now respond only to its new chosen name, America.[/quote] [url]http://www.theverge.com/2016/5/10/11648388/budweiser-renaming-beer-america[/url]

Well shit, They've gone and done it now, haven't they. This is probably the most Budweiser thing Budweiser could have done, actually.

Nothing says America like cheap beer that tastes and likely is made of piss.

Should have called it Trump

God damnit, now I have to sell America.

"Ugh, Bud Light takes like piss!" *stops smoking cigarette to pop open a can of PBR*

And it's flag burning that people are concerned about?

I love how The Verge, a site that values diversity and whatnot, writes that "America, as you may be aware, is also the name of a country". Yeah, it's also the name of the Western Hemisphere. Also I tasted a budweiser once. I think I'll pass on America as well.

I don't know what's worse. The fact that Budweiser's popularity overshadows that of Budweiser Budvar Brewery, or that they have the gall to rebrand their borderline piss-cleaning water mixture after America.

When I went to the US a couple of months ago I bought a budweiser and thought it couldn't be that bad. It was the worst thing I've ever tasted. Tasted like lightly carbonated water with a hint of bitterness.

Of all the beers to get the name "America", it had to be literally the worse possible one ever brewed.

[QUOTE=thisguy123;50295539]I doubt that shit is brewed... more manufactured.[/QUOTE] Honestly I think it's just urinated.

Budweiser was literally the beer I never stopped thinking tasted like shit even from a VERY young age

I actually think that of all the giant brands (Miller, Coors, etc.), Bud and Bud Lite are the best of them. It's actually not terrible? Like, there's better, but I could settle for Bud where I couldn't settle for any of those others.

Does this mean we no longer have to specify Budvar if you want a proper Budweiser [T]https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/85/Budvar_UK_retouched.jpg/419px-Budvar_UK_retouched.jpg[/t]

Crack a can of liquid FREEDOM!

[QUOTE=yodafart9;50295554]Budweiser was literally the beer I never stopped thinking tasted like shit even from a VERY young age[/QUOTE] It's better than the alternative from my area (also by bud) National Lite which is just slightly alcoholic piss in a can. The only thing about it is you can buy tons of the stuff for campus parties

Everyone knows American beer is crap. Smart people get the good stuff from Canada.

Budweiser is that cheap you buy when you want to keep the buzz going

Because nothing says America like a shirtless guy with a mullet and NASCAR hat, standing in front of his trailer wearing jeans with paint splatters all over them, holding up a tall can of Budweiser

I feel like I've done myself a favor by never drinking Budweiser.

Not a good move tbh
