I kinda wanna defend becks but also not because I‘d never buy it, if there’s anything advertised good available but I wouldn’t decline it, if it was the only beer available…
Fair enough…I used it as a reference only. Becks was all over the east coast for a lot of the 70s-80s
Fascinating. Here in Germany, where Becks is brewed it’s a "they didn’t have an actually good Pils so I brought Becks" kind of beer. But also, I’m Bavarian, we’re beet elitists anyways…
Same - here next door we do Heineken; it’s the Dutch equivalent of a Coors (what I did back in Colorado)
Yea, only time I remember drinking Heineken was when I was at a class outing to Italy and it was the only beer there. (Although we mostly drank wine)
