About twenty years ago I
had a conversation with a beer snob. I remember it distinctly. He was a
classmate of mine at the time and he was making some disparaging remarks about
some of the popular American brands of beer. He pompously listed off several foreign
brands that far excelled the flavors of the common American canned product.
I calmly retorted, “There
is more to beer than just taste.”
I recall that conversation
tonight as I sip this offering from La Crosse. The taste is a little too sweet for me. This one cannot compare to the brewed
treasures of Germany or the British Isles or even the whiney Belgians; but at 8
and a half per cent alcohol . . . lemme
tell you . . . you get your money’s
worth.
