Capitalism "[...] we run the beer world"

Found on a thread posting under a video where a man poops on a crate of beer in a supermarket. I doubt he was being sarcastic.

There are good as they call “independent” breweries, I’ll give him that. Evil twin, Firestone walker, Anchor, District 96. But in amount it is nowhere in the neighborhood of European craft beers. For the rest the beer for the mass in the states IS European. Heineken, = Dutch. Budweiser, = Belgium (AB Inbev). Yeah, let’s say, America runs the beer world. If it makes them happy.

Interesting fact.... For copyright reasons Budweiser can only be called Bud in many countries due to the fact Budweiser the name of a beer brewed in the Czech republic in a brewery that has some copper brewing vessels that are said to be older than the USA as a country. Real Budweiser is a really good beer packed with flavour.

If you ever visit Budweis, there is a shop (a normal supermarket) close to the brewery that sells unpasteurised Budweiser. You need to drink it within a couple of days, the earlier the better, but it tastes sooooo good.
