Budweiser broke the Internet – at least the craft beer portion of it

Remember last week, when Anheuser-Busch announced they were changing the name of Budweiser to “America”? After the initial belief it this was a joke wore off, and the internet exploded with “The [insert your number here] Beers More American Than Budweiser” lists, all I could think about was what if those other beer labels changed their names to “America” too? You can’t copyright “Freedom”, right?

Then, Bon Appétit came out with their list of 10 beers that *should* be renamed America this morning, so I felt like this had to be done:

Sierra Nevada Pale Ale

The craft beer that started the movement.

Anchor Steam Beer

Yuengling Lager

Oskar Blues Dale’s Pale Ale

Russian River Pliny the Elder

Hill Farmstead Everett

The Alchemist Heady Topper

Victory Prima Pils

Allagash White

Of course, if they renamed it to America, they couldn’t just keep calling it ‘White’, too. You have to use all three colors.

Deschutes The Abyss

Fortunately, I created a Budweiser sketchbook/journal before the “America” ridiculousness began, and you can grab it from my Etsy shop.
