It's not that Bud AB makes bad beer. It's just that Budovar is so damn cute even if it is a government organization.

Perhaps some private people should buy it with a public issue in Europe. Trouble is Bud AB would probably snap that up and ruin the business.

The only way is for the people to do a grass roots movement. I tried with Kronenbourg (Alsace) but I could not singlehandedly force the bars to keep it in stock for me. Beer is not longer a local issue it's national.

A good brewer can make fresh beer far better quality than any commercial brewery. Two best beers I ever tasted were home brewed. My sister is very good at beer and wine making as she is also master chef of skill. It is an art.

Underscores that quality in food and drink is not given of big business.

I no longer drink but I would be interested in starting a quality beverage line. Micro breweries are still very popular in Canada and someday quality drafts will return with the taste of the turn of the century beers and the English kind. In Northern Ontario there was only one truck-delivered draught. (you would say keg ale) It was called Northern and it was swill compared to a really good fresh local beer (which of course unless we were in England is theoretical). Now everybody drinks the awful swill lagers and ales brewed in Toronto. They have never had good beer. In many cases where they are served draught the lines are not clean and the beer is spoiled.

Brador, a Quebec beer of 6.2% alcohol and once 11% alcohol was a true ale and because to the high alcohol content better preserved and good tasting. It is now brewed by Labatts and is not that good.

What a lot of people don't realize is a lot of beer sold in bars in Ontario is off. Its not aged or has got bacteria or is too old. It tastes flat and stale.
