| Free Bud Beer Anheuser-Busch InBev will give away thousands of free samples of Bud throughout October but no one seems sure just where. Drinkers have been calling distributors, posting on Facebook and checking in with local bars to learn when and where they can get the free Bud.. Because of local and state laws that regulate how people sample alcohol, the brewer can't give specifics, but individual locations can. Anheuser-Busch plans to give away 500,000 free samples of 6 ounces to 12 ounces each — depending on local laws. The samples are part of a new campaign to woo younger drinkers and generate new interest in the sagging brand. ---------------------------- Mystical Moon Beer In Peruwelz, a town in southern Belgium, Brewery Caulier has produced what they say is the first beer ever brewed only by the light of a full autumnal moon. The brewery claims the full moon speeds up the fermentation process, shortening it to 5 days from 7, and adds extra punch to the beer without making it harsh. They refused to say if a mystical incantation was part of their brewing process. |
| You don't say..... What an 8 horse team of Budweiser Clydesdales to appear at your party? Get ready to pony up $2000 per day plus another $6,000 for the set up. They make more than 900 appearances at 200 events each year. A-B has 250 Clydesdales ready to go from their home bases in St. Louis, Boonville, MO, and Merrimack, NH ------------------ The Journal of Internal Medicine traced women's drinking habits over a period of 13 years has concluded that women who regularly consume moderate amounts of alcohol are less likely to gain weight than non-drinkers. ------------------------- Diageo, the company that owns Guinnes has launched a new fragrance for men that "combines Guinness with the essence of the game of rugby." Working with rugby superstar Ugo Monye, the fragrance mixes "scents such as sweat, deep heat and mud with Guinness Stout." Yes, they are serious. -------------------------- Blue Point Brewing (NY) claims the record for the world's largest cask of beer. The beer was Blue Point Anniversary IPA and the cask held 10,000 pints. -------------------------- In medieval England if you saw a bush or garland placed on top of a pole in front of a building that meant it was an ale house. This was common practice since the general population could not read. |
