    Fuck, our import beers aren't even imported!

    Becks is not imported from Germany.
    I already knew that Becks is not an original German recipe but thought it was still made there.

    I'm not going to dig through receipts to get the $50 refund; but I might go for the $12.

    Red Stripe is not from Jamaica either.

      I hope Sierra Nevada is actually from the Sierra Nevada region...and I am talking about the beer, not the performer ;)

          Becks is not an original German recipe? well, Pilsener type of beer in general was invented by a german guy in Czech Republic - in case you meant that.

                  No, I meant that Becks is about half as strong as it would be if made and sold in Germany.
                  So how can it be the original recipe?

                          The Brewery for Sierra Nevada is in Chico California, they have a restaurant where they have a special deal with a local rancher to feed the spent oats and barley from the beer to the cows.

                          Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
                          think about that

                              i had Becks in the US but I didn't check the % - the German one has 4.9% alcohol

                              but it definitely tasted different, I lived in Bremen for 2 years and Becks is still one of my favorites but the american one didn't taste by far as good as the original German one

                                      That's funny, even american beer taste different from state to state? Beer is like a fine recipe, very hard to imitate every time I suppose?' And we grow to the taste of our local.

                                                  At least Lidl has German beers, but I guess there ain't Lidl in America. Also, I don't know how good are the Lidl beers by German standards, maybe they export all the shit in here and fake it being some premium German beer. I have heard rumors about that.

                                                  Genuine German import.

                                                              Kudos for Lidl. Well, at least in here Lidl has helped to bring some competition into our markets, though it isn't yet enough; partly because Lidl has troubles to get marketplaces (our biggest chains have good "relations" to decision makers).

So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants

We also produce a lot of Czech and German sorts of beer locally. However imported ones are also available. Usually the imported beer is 2-4x times is more expensive than local.
