I picked up this new beer today.

80 calories, 4 percent alcohol, 0 carbs

My review: Not bad

You're slowly working your way to Carbonated Water. I just buy a bottle of Tequila once a year!

New Englander 02-16-2022 04:17 PM

80 calories and 0 carbs means I'll give it a try.

Don't they call that "near beer?"

No. Near beer has little or no alcohol. This beer has 4 percent alcohol, which is comparable to other light beers that have 100 calories or more.

So if you blind tasted Bud Light and Bud Light Next do you think you could taste the difference?

Dr Winston O Boogie jr 02-17-2022 10:45 AM

The CEOs of Budweiser, Miller, Coors and Guinness met at a bar. The Bud exec orded Bud Light, the Miller guy Miller Lite and the Coors CEO ordered Coors light.

The Guinness CEO order water.

When the other three questioned his choice, he said, "Well, as long as you're all drinking water, I thought I might as well too."

In some countries, Budweiser is not allowed to advertise itself as beer.

I think so. Bud Light has a little more flavor, but more calories.

Why should old goats like us with one foot in the grave have to worry calories??

dewilson58 02-17-2022 06:13 PM

Had to admit, Bud Zero ain't too bad either.

Have you seen some of the spare tires? Not taking about donuts 🍩, but big foot tires. Probably haven’t seen there feet for 30 years. :faint: yes 🙌 saving calorie or two helps, especially when 12 packs are involved. :duck:

That's because they STOLE the name Budweiser from another brewer in Europe. Sorry, I can't find the photo that I used to have of the original label of a beer I purchased overseas.

In the old days, military bases supplied 3% beer at base enlisted clubs due to young military members not being old enough to purchase alcoholic beverages off base. They called this beer "near beer" since it was hardly alcoholic.

Kind of my thought the other day when I saw a thread looking for someone who cuts toenails. If I ever need someone to cut my toenails, please just shoot me.

The "need" comes when one's eyesight fails. their sensation weakens, their circulation gets worse...

All of which make it danger to do it oneself...

I've had to perform amputations because a patient didn't feel it when the nicked the tip of their toe and then developed gangrene...
