      Budweiser’s recipe was stolen from its homeland, FYI, where it had enjoyed hundreds of years of favor prior to WWII.

      Also, I’m not bashing personal taste, merely pointing out that things like Prohibition (a for-profit scheme from the jump), et al, have been SOP for much of our collective “civilized” experience for longer than most of us are aware, or want to be.
