You've had products reviewed? In STEREOPHILE magazine? Which products?
So, you think the "King of Beers" is the best beer in the world or that maybe BOSE makes the best loudspeakers? I bet you wash down your Obecalp with lite beer!

now that I think about it, Stereophile did review the Intelligent Chip. It wasn't really my product but they didn't know that.
I didn't say Stereophile Magazine, did I? I prefer Old Frothingslosh, excellent for washing down placebos.
Olde Frothingslosh? Never heard of it, had to look that one up.
I prefer SUDWERK Marzan, premium lager.
Old Frothingslosh, the only premium beer with the head on the bottom.
Not quite sure what that means, or even how that is possible.
It means that the foam is on the bottom of the glass instead of on the top. I assume it must be possible since that's the Old Frothingslosh slogan: "The Beer with the Head on the Bottom."
But, seriously, Old Frothingslosh is not a real beer, it's an advertizing concept. It may or may not have been a real beer at one time, but I doubt it.
I thought you looked it up....... :-)
One of Cordic's most memorable running gags at both WWSW and KDKA were fake advertisements for "Olde Frothingslosh", "the pale stale ale with the foam on the bottom." The beer was supposedly brewed by Sir Reginald Frothingslosh at Upper Crudney-on-the-Thames. In 1955, Pittsburgh Brewing Company began issuing special Christmas-season cans and bottles of Olde Frothingslosh filled with real beer. The humorous labels changed every year and became favorites of collectors. The brewery (as well as a few other small local Pittsburgh breweries such as Tech Beer) released new editions of Olde Frothingslosh even after Cordic left Pittsburgh, continuing until 1982 and then reviving the brand in 1998, and more recently in 2007 (currently available).
I only looked at the picture of the beer can, not at the list of ingredients or the history of the company. I did however learn how to spell it correctly, it's OLDE. I guess that I'll have to go to WIKIPEDIA and examine it more thoroughly.
I kind of doubt foam can reside on the bottom of a container, since foam is lighter and it floats.
Anyway, I prefer my beer from a bottle and not from a can. Speaking of beer, I only have one bottle left in my fridge, a Fosters. Time to buy some more. I don't always drink the same thing, sometimes, Fosters, sometimes Pacifico, sometimes, Coors, sometimes, Guinness, sometimes Heineken. It kind of depends on my mood and how much money I have in my wallet.
Time to get pickier about what's inside the package rather than the package itself! Better beers are available for the same price (though guinness is a perfectly fine brew).
Bass is supposed to sound big. 6.5" is not a woofer size.
Better beers typically come in a bottle. What's inside a can might be the same, but I can taste the can when I sip out of it. I almost always look for beers that are on sale, my local Rite-Aid store has something different on sale every week. I prefer lagers (not ales) in the European tradition. I also tend to like a heavier beer in the winter and lighter beers in the summer.
I'm an educated beer drinker, having dabbled some with DIY beer making. I once received a marvelous one on one personalized tour of the entire Sudwerks brewery. All of the inside production, from wort to label. I've attended several local Brew Fests having tasted a variety of micro brews.
I don't care what you drink.

That the beers you listed aren't very good? You know brewing, just don't have the tastebuds to judge a decent pint then? Pacifico is just okay, coors isn't very good, heineken is only slightly better than coors. Guinness is AOK, though, a tasty enough brew.
Certainly the can affects the taste but if you're drinking those beers instead of the many better options out there, then taste isn't the priority you seem to claim.

I very much like SUDWERK Marzen, an Octoberfest style of beer. I also very much like SPATEN and a few other European imports. Like I said previously I drink whatever I can AFFORD not what I cannot afford. But if you would like to contribute to my beer drinking budget. . . . I'll be happy to drink whatever you think is better.
you to drink desirable things rather than shlock. Drink less but better if the budget's so tight.

I'd like to drive a Ferrari or a Porsche, but I can only afford a Toyota or a Honda. Should I stop driving too?
I doubt you even know the difference between an ale and a lager and I'm quite certain you haven't even the slightest clue as to what finings are.
Since you don't like my shopping habits, care to do the shopping for me? Or I can give you info to my PayPal account and you can deposit the necessary funds.
Maybe this "beer" thread should be moved to a more appropriate forum.
