Title: Tastes Great or Less Filling
Post by: GGKoul on September 30, 2004, 04:46:06 pm
I perfer Tastes Great!

The taste buds in your mouth would prefer a great tasting beer over a less filling beer as the end result is the same after drinking 12 of them.

Drinking 12 "less filling" beers still produre the same effect.  It all comes down to taste.

American beer yes, with there 3% alcohol content... But Canadian beer no, unless you compare it against beers in Europe with 8 - 13% alcohol rating.

I say tastes great but I do have something to add about the Canadian vs American way to measuring content.  Canadian beer is not stronger than U.S. beer. That myth is an artifact of two different ways of measuring alcohol content. There are two slightly different ways of measuring the alcohol content of beverages, as a percentage of either the beverage total volume or its weight. For example, if you have 1 liter of 4 percent ABV beer, 4 percent of that liter (40 ml) is alcohol. However, because alcohol weighs only 79.6 percent as much as water, that same beer is only 3.18 percent ABW.

This may seem like a dry exercise in mathematics, but it is at the heart of the common belief that Canadian beer is stronger than American beer. Canadian brewers traditionally use ABV figures, whereas American brewers have historically used the lower ABW figures. Mainstream Canadian and American lagers are approximately equal in strength; there are minor differences, but, for instance, Bud in Canada and the U.S. is 5.0% ABV. Both places. Alexander Keith's (which is owned by Labatt, BTW): 5.0%. Molson Canadian: 5.0%. Rickard's Red (owned by Molson): 5.2%. Miller Genuine Draft: 4.66%. Miller High Life: 5.0%. Yuengling Lager: 4.9%. Coors Original: 5.0%. There just ain't that much difference.

Just FYI!  ;D

Peale, That was last year.  This is this year.

Who voted so many times?  Will the Less Filling people please come forward??

Ok... If you actually to a head to head comparison of Bud brewed in Canada vs. Bud brewed in US.  Not only is there a settle taste difference, but the Bud brewed in Canada is stronger.  You can taste the difference.

Also Alexander Keith's was independent for the longest time and was only available in the Maritimes.  My brother and I had our first taste of Keith's @ 10 years ago when we went to visit our coz coaching football at St. Mary's.  We liked the beer so much, that we brought a 24 Case each home with us as our carry on on the plane.    ;D

Boy were we happy when they started selling Keith's in the rest of Canada!

Ok, not to split hairs (since we both like to drink beer!!) I would agree that there is a slight difference in the taste.  With that I say lets tip a glass to the inventors of beer... god bless 'em!  Lets hope the microbrew's will stay in business a long long time.  We have quite a few good ones here in Michigan.

I could really go for a Rickard's Red right about now.  ;D

I'm going to drink myself silly tonight by drinking Keith's all night... Tailgating before a local CFL Football game tonight.  Then the boys go out after the game for a few beers at a local pub... Fun Fun Fun...
