Belgians Interbrew biggest brewer in the world
 

Woohoo, my hometown brewer, Interbrew from Leuven, has become the biggest beer brewer in the world, even bigger than Anheuser-Bush !!! :thumbsup

They've "joined" (taken over in fact) with AmBev, which makes them even bigger than Budweiser, who could have thought that a couple of years ago, Anheuser Bush was at that time almost 70% bigger than n°2.

After we had beat Heineken 2 years ago (as Belgian and a beer lover, you have to hate that soda, hey it certainly ain't a beer), this is another victory.

Next: Stella Artois that beats Heineken in international sales, 'cause people should get to know real pilsner beer.

I drink Stella all the time..Great beer :glugglug

Great beer.

God is Brazilian

Brewing more beer doesn't make it better

I went to Belgium a few times, nice country, nice people...I still like German beer and beer from Netherlands...:thumbsup

I love Belgium..I haven't been there since October and it feels like too long!

Ok, so finally we have some good belgian news to cover up the whole Dutroux trial?

... funny, everytime I hear belgium I think about old fat fucks fucking 8 year old boys, maybe it's just me ??

I think you are confusing us with Germany :winkwink:

hey, we already had the quality, now we also rule the quantaty, now the popularity :thumbsup

although the beers that people seem to like: Hoegaarden, Leffe, ... are also Interbrews'

Interbrew can kiss my ass. They bought Labatt and sent the Blue Jays on downward spiral for 10 years.

I'm from Leuven too:thumbsup

Yeah not many people know that.

Not the biggest money wise though, only in volume of beer produced, which doesn't really make it the biggest now does it?

a towny or a student?

If a student, which high school did you attend?

ikke: Atheneum/Redingenhof

beer is counted in volume, not in money, Anheuser-Bush has been on that n°1 spot for ever and that was based on volume, not money

KUL:thumbsup Now moving out but stills searching for directions....

Stella is the real god of beers

Stella sucks,
Heinken sucks,
Interbrew sucks.
You have much much better beers in belgium but you want to keep them for yourselves.
We also export the stuff we dont like (Heineken)
and keep the Hertog Jan for ourselves

beer sux.

Perhaps not. But putting enough alcohol in it does!

:Graucho :Graucho

...
 

:Oh crap

Stella ain't bad...but I'll take a chimay please. Maybe a duval.

of course of course, Duvel all the way, also try Westmalle Triple if you can find it, but those are different categories of beer, that's like comparing grape juice to wine :glugglug

I love a nice Belgian Palm any day...

What really makes Stella not as good as it really is in the states is that people in the states have no clue how to fill a friggin glass... They keep removing all the foam...

AmBev has the best selling softdrink here after Coca-Cola (Guarana Antarctica) with 8,3% market share. They're already selling it in a few countries in Europe.

blasphemy :ak47: :BangBang:

a Stella should have around 3 centimeters of foam collar on it, it should be drank from the proper water cooled glas and come from a barrel or a bottle, cans are no good in comparison.

serving beer is an art, beer with a bad foam collar, is a badly served beer and you should ask for a new one.

The foam is there for a reason, it's there to keep the aroma's and most importantly to keep the carbon dioxide in the beer, also a Stella should be consumed in 7 minutes, which ain't a problem for the firs 10, but then :1orglaugh although a friend suggested not ordering a new beer right away, after one is drank:winkwink:
didn't like the idea

Yeah I loved that shit! I took a Guarana diet everyday. I hope they will sell it over here as well soon.
:thumbsup

what does it taste like? cola? fanta-like? sprite?

Hello there! I am also from Leuven! :thumbsup

It tastes like Guaraná! It isn't similar to cola, fanta/crush or sprite/seven up.

Guarana is a fruit growned in the Amazon.

hey, ik vind dat Interbrew een fuifke moet houden ter ere van de 1ste plaats, 200 gratis vaten of zo :thumbsup

Stella ain't that bad.
