This is a very odd thing to read while i sit here in the morning drinking my plant based coffee.
 
As long as he doesn't make me drink plant based vodka.
 
... I once had plant based beer. I hated it. 🦌 in my 🍺, I always say.

Well...this comes from people who won't dink craft beer made by Americans, with American products, in America and owned by Americans....but will drink weak crap beer like Budweiser that's owned by a foreign company, or some other "American" beer that's owned by the Canadians or Germans, as well as Heineken itself and guzzle down gallons of...ironically....Corona.
 
When has Larry Kudlow been right about anything in his career? He is an embarrassment to the economics profession.
 
Yeah I saw that... Kudlow. I knew he was to the right like so many wall street news hosts but that was simply insane.
He is altogether pretty nutty.
 
Im not even a beer drinker and i knew that comment was lolzworthy.

The only issue I have with this comment is that it implies that Budweiser was always a "foreign" beer. While the company did get bought out by a foreign company (or merged into two other foreign companies, however someone may want to put it), the beer itself was originally from St Louis MO. And the acquisition is relatively new, since I was able to drink before it went through (and that, my legal ability to drink in the US, happened after 9/11).

Any sentence that begins with “Larry Kudlow says…” is always lolzworthy.

The point I am making is that the new company changed the original beer to what it is today thereby walking away from the American origins. Also, they pretty much destroyed what made the company in terms of spirit, "American". To those of us beer nerds (as well as those like me who are in the industry), Budweiser is technically American brew only because it is made in the US; the original recipe was a Bavarian recipe brought over by Schneider's family. So, technically, yes, Budweiser is American...but its really a weak German pilsner.
 
But if we're going to get technical, the beer is still-plant based. Honey is just an added ingredient.
.... and they should know, no one killed the bee's to get that honey.
