Post by: JB88 on January 26, 2005, 04:29:56 PM: Budweiser Adds Herbs, Caffeine To Beer

ST. LOUIS -- Anheuser-Busch is adding a little jolt to its new beer brand. B-to-the-E is being rolled out nationwide, after being test marketed in 55 cities.

The "E" stands for extra, in this case caffeine and herbs, including ginseng.

SURVEY
Would you drink beer with herbs and caffeine added?
Yes
No
Excuse me, the very idea makes me feel ill
Results | Disclaimer
The world's largest brewer is going after the 20-something market with the fruity brewski.

But some beer-lovers might have a hard time downing the stuff. Anheuser-Busch even suggests that B-to-the-E be served over ice.

my take on the infamous brewski is it is just like "cornflakes in a can!" you know with all the hops and grains it is made of, i prefer to be a bit more healthy and go for the mountain spring water myself. but hey, that is just me!:aok

I don`t understand how Budweezer gets them horses to stand still long enough to take a wiz in a bottle.

Post by: Leslie on January 27, 2005, 08:04:24 AM: I don't believe that. Budweiser gone politically correct? It's just as bad a mistake as new coke. That decision almost put them outta business.

I actually like vanilla coke... though I prefer it served the more old-fashioned way. Coke out of a glass bottle and a teaspoon of vanilla extract. The can stuff isn't great, but it's not bad either.
