Poppin' a beer open

[Cpt Toellner]

It... really shouldn't. Is America that pathetic?

Mostly, yes.

Just look at our most popular beers:

According to my girlfriend, it's best if I avoid alcohol today. lol Even if it leaves a girl feeling left out.

Strongbow is apple cider. It's... how is that beer?

I never considered ciders beer. They are good once in a while, but definitely not beer.

It's beer, flavored with apple cider so it's beer. Story, end of. Alexander Keith's also makes it, it's a bit more sugary so I like Strongbow better.

No, it's a dry cider flavored with over 50 kinds of apple. Cider is a fermented alcohol beverage made from fruit juice -- it has nothing to do with beer.

This guy here is the last beer I drank that wasn't Coors Light or Yuengling.

It'll have to be an agree to disagree situation then, I have no desire to get into a discussion about that junk.

Then what would be their reasoning behind calling it beer, and putting it in the beer section? The process of making it is similar?

That looks awesome and tasty. Ew to Coors though, tastes like water.

It appeals to ignorant Americans who don't know what cider is, I suppose.

Seriously though, if anything, it's more like wine. Both in taste and in production method. But they sell it in beer bottles and contains about as much alcohol, so the placement in the beer aisle doesn't surprise me. That's where it's placed over here as well... but it doesn't say beer on the bottle. Because it isn't.

V: Because of marketing. You have no idea how many will drink beer that isnöt beer, just to prove that they drink... beer.

It Isn't beer, by any real definition. No actual brewery with self respect or respect for the trade would refer to it as a beer.
