Good points.

So what sort of person drinks Heineken, the definition of stinky beer?
I didn't drink it until later in life, and once I did, all I could think was, why this?

Heineken was like the Emperor with the new clothes.  When everyone's a semi-novice at drinking beer, and there's this premium beer imported all the way from Holland, who wants to be the one to say, blech!!!?

I prefer Belgian beers, if I'm drinking beer. I "like" some German ones too.

Forbidden fruit, like Coors once was east of the MS.  I saw similar stuff when I was in the wine business (sort of).  Folks would come in with their lists.

I remember filling in on Saturday when a lady came in asking for Kendall Jackson chard cold, and when I said we didn't carry K-j, she said "What kind of wine store doesn't carry Kendall Jackson?".  I sent her to the Kroger down the street.

K-J is the largest wine operation in the US now on a dollar basis and they do make some excellent wines.

My grandparents used to drive to Las Vegas from Minnesota a lot. In the 70s, this meant loading the trunk in Julesburg with Coors.

On one particular trip, they had a flat tire on the I-80 bridge over the Missouri River in Omaha. This meant leaving a trunkful of beer on the shoulder of the freeway while they got the spare out and the tire fixed.

Why Julesburg? Because it's the first Colorado town across the Nebraska state line? The geographical limit of Coors sales? Such an out of the way place. And not unlike the MANY other grain tower towns connected by railroad across the cold plains. Western Nebraska/Kansas and Eastern Colorado is the calm before the storm; the calm that empty flatness of land, the storm the upheaval of the Rockies reaching west. I can't tell you how enlivening of an experience that transformation of land is whenever I roadtrip.

Amen, brutha!  Almost all Belgians are in brown bottles.  Many Germans too.

Heineken is pretty crappy even in the Netherlands.

I didnt realize Heineken was looked upon as bad beer

There are no bad beers just better ones
