    American Revolution

    By Scott34567  |  Posted July 15, 2008  |  West Palm Beach, Florida
     

    Is it time for the average American beer drinker to cast-aside the King?  Maybe. 

     

    I was truly upset when I heard about the buy-out of Anheuser-Busch by InBev. In fact, it moved me to action.  I quickly researched all of my college-time favorite "American" beers.  Turns out, most of them pledge their allegiance to colors other then red, white and blue. 

     

    I quickly pledged my own allegiance to all those micro-brews perched along the shelves at my local grocery store.  There are some things I can handle...German cars, t-shirts made in China, French cuisine...but I want my beer to be all-American.  Which is why Sam Adams and his closest revolutionaries will fill my fridge and not the King and his Belgian court.
