Ross Hopkins still likes to drink Bud, even though he says a brief tryst with a Coors beer cost him his job at a Budweiser distributor.

Hopkins, 41, is suing American Eagle Distributing Co., saying the company wrongly fired him for drinking Coors in a bar two years ago.



You gotta stand up for what's right.  I mean, allowing that guy to go on drinking Coors could cost him his taste buds down the road.  
:lol

Would be cool if Coors paid for his legal bills.

If he was in a bar it was probably on his own time.

Dont see how they had the right to fire him for that.

Oh well it says he "likes" to drink bud.(GROSS)

Shows he doesnt have much in the brains or taste dept.
so maybe they just needed a reason to get rid of him

Good idea, Diablo- would give them some great PR. You should suggest it- you might get a case of Coors for the idea....although, as a Bud drinker, the only way I can drink Coors is if I soak a battery in it for a couple of hours.

Yeah.  Errrr, um hey!  Thats not right.  I mean, why that specific set of descriptors?  What do wife-beater shirts and ... and the star thing ... and bein a redneck, and all that, what do those have to do with drinking Coors?  

I SWEAR TO GOD, I ONLY DRANK ........... well ........ a few I guess ..........















Oh the horror.  I swear I thought once you quit it would get better!  I mean, I havent touched a Coors in almost 2 years.........well, except for that one at the Outback that night ............... but it was a happy hour special!  Thats the only reason!  The beer belly, the wife-beater, the badge ............. IT'S ALL COINCIDENTAL!  IT DOESN'T MEAN A DAMN THING!  DON'T LISTEN TO HIM!!!

It's pretty standard in the drink business. Try working for Coca-Cola and drinking a Pepsi or Dr.Pepper. They will fire you in a heartbeat. If you work for one of the major companies they require you to be brand loyal as a term of employment.

Coors is not beer. It's a malt beverage.

really?  all?   I quit before they were popular but I have heard that the microbreweries have quite a selection.   I think saying that there are no good North American beers is like saying that because you tried a twist off top gallow gallon of wine there are no good American wines.

I have plenty of beer in my fridge that is North American and it definitely is not lacking in any way.  Now the fact that I make it myself might have something to do with it, but it is still North American.  :)  And there are a lot of micros and small brewery restaurant places that are turning out a lot of very good beers now here in the states.  Everybody should go out and support these places as much as possible and maybe BudMillerCoors will get a hint and start producing beer that tastes like beer again instead of the post-Prohibition crap they have been turning out for the last 70 years.

MGD tastes like somebody drank Nyquil and threw up in a bottle, added some Alka-Seltzer for fizz, and then pissed on it for color.

Beer snobs.  Drink what ya like, and like what ya drink.

Bud gives me the runs, so I stay away from it.
Coors Light is fine for cooling down the tonsils when eating spicy wings.
However, the best beer I ever had was in Germany.

I know a restaurant which brings in the same German brew (not on the up and up mind you as the alcohol content is not down to U.S. standards).  Yummy.

I have to agree with skuzzy.  my cousin brought over a case of grimbergen from belgium (that's a large city in nothern france) which we enjoyed alot.  i cried as i drank the last liter.

I hear if you work at the Coke factory you get a couple cases a week or whatever, at least the lady that lives next to my grandparents does.  Same should go for beer, you work for them, they give you free or cheaper beer.
