Is Bud such a crap beer that they have resorted to forcing people to drink it?

i bought a ticket to see a band in The Village this evening. But when I went to the bar I discovered red socks over all the taps for the draught beer.

Red Budwiser socks! covering the Erdinger and other beers!!

All the fridges were full of Budwizer bottles. And then the true nature of the nightmare became apparent.

YOU CAN ONLY DRINK BUD AT THE CONCERTS AT THIS BUD FESTIVAL!!!

But nowhere on all the printed material about this festival does it warn innocent punters out for a good night that this is the case.

There were other people standing at the bar with jaws a droppin' - wondering what the hell they could do.

Is Bud so bad that they have to force us to drink it by making nothing else available???

And in forcing people to drink their beer are they admitting something about it?

It was a corporate takeover at the bar without any warning!

Are corporate take overs and coercion cool and rock and roll now??
So I went down to the cash desk and complained and got my money back and left.

I went up to Redmonds in Ranelagh and got some really tasty beers and the guy behind the desk confirmed that Bud are in real trouble and the beer just isnt selling. Its even being outsold by Corrs Light - how bad is that?
