Review of Meister Brau (June 29, 2000)
Hey! I remember when Meister Brau first came out! They had a lot of T.V. commercials showing how people who bought Meister Brau became heroes because they saved a lot of money over fancy import beers. I decided to try it. Here is my review:
I know I'm going to get slammed by the beer lovers and by everyone else who ever tried this beer, but I did not find it to be bad tasting. Actually, as I recall, it was not so bad at all! I remember a friend from Germany stopped over, and we both got drunk on the stuff. He said he liked it better than Budweiser, and that it was the best American beer he tasted! (And this guy came from beer heaven!)
I will have to admit, every time I pounded down some Meister Brau, I got some mean hangovers the following day. Once, it put me out for the entire day! I had to lay in bed moaning (luckily, there was a Star Trek marathon on T.V.).
I guess you might say I'm not fussy when it comes to beer. I prefer good-old American beer to most fancy imports or yuppie beers. I'm not so crazy about the brewing method used or the ingredients. You can't sell me on the objective issue of "mass-brewing" - most of my favorite beers are mass brewed, and most of the yuppie beers are mass brewed also. (Although a lot of these brewers will pretend they don't).
The beer tastes pretty much the same as most American made beers. It usually costs much less, and it is marketed as an inexpensive beer. It is a light, crisp, and refreshing beer that is easy to put down when cold. If you have any doubts, put your pride aside, buy a six pack of this beer, along with another American beer, and do a personal taste. You might be surprised!
I would recommend this beer to anyone on a tight budget who wants to get hammered. Be warned, you may get a hangover! I would not recommend this beer to anyone who is self-conscious, and is image conscious. I would not recommend bringing a six pack of this to someone's party, unless you are playing a joke on them. You may get away with bringing a six pack to an old timers party (beer is beer!) All I have to say is, "You got to love this country! You really do!" Have a nice summer! (Please do not drink and drive!)
