29. If you get it on draft, Bud isn't a bad beer

Bud's problem comes from being packaged. Bottled and canned Bud is pasteurized, then lives in a truck for a few days, then goes to the store and sits in the middle of the aisle until someone buys it and takes it home. As light as Bud is, it can't take that sort of handling and it goes to shit. Kegged beer is not pasteurized and has to be refrigerated its entire life.

Go to a bar and order a glass of draft Bud and a can of Bud with a glass. You will swear they are two different brands of beer.
