I FOUND LANDO (no caps)

From the Colt 45 wiki page:

Quote:
The product's slogan during that era, as stated by Williams in his television commercials, was, "It works every time." for which he received much criticism. Williams responded indifferently to the criticism of his appearances in the liquor commercials. When questioned about his appearances he was quoted as saying, "I drink, you drink. Hell, if marijuana was legal, I'd appear in a commercial for that too."

Malt liquor is still beer. Really the only difference between malt liquor and your average American industrial lager is that the malt liquor uses even more adjuncts like corn and rice.

You're technically correct but anything above 5% can't be labeled as beer (this depends on the state). I personally think that it's ridiculous that a list of ingredients w/ an alcohol content stamp isn't satisfactory.

Then you aren't getting the right stuff. Contrary to popular belief, imported beers ARE just imported from other countries. They do not ruin them just for the American market.

There are things that can affect the quality of alcohol in the shipping process (e.g: vibration w/ wine) but I don't think that the average person notices these things. I think that this isn't as much of a problem as it used to be due to advances in packaging & shipping. I think it's also important to point out that many imports have different recipes for different markets (e.g: Guinness).

Yeah, that's bull****. I bet if wine snobs subjected themselves to double blind tests, they'd find that much of what they think they know is complete garbage.

Knowing very little about wine, or beer, I'd say it may not be BS. Think about science labs, they have those little vibration/rotation things for test tubes to mix things. Maybe transportation does have an effect?

I could care less, I like my alcohol in shots.

I think the only reason anyone in massassi would say "I could care less" is because they know it's nonsensical and do it to piss people off

Or in other words: you got trolled

This would probably be accurate if we weren't talking about KOP_AoEJedi.

Yeah, then you let it settle for two hours and it's back to the same state. Rumbling around on a boat isn't the same as a centrifuge at all.

I really don't think that the average person should be concerned about this sort of thing (assuming anyone should be).

Wines were aged under four different vibration degrees (1, 5,10, and 20 Gal) for 18 months.

I don't think it takes that long to ship wine across the world.

Yeah, I'd guess it's more of a concern for long-term storage than shipping.
If you think the waiters are rude, you should see the manager.
