Thunderbird Club

I really don't understand Stella Artois. People pay a premium for what I would politely describe as an ambiguously German, French, Danish, Belgian version of Bud. It is even made by the makers of Bud. Slick advertising and a stemmed glass have somehow brainwashed the masses into a dysgeusic malaise making them think that THAT is beer. Not that I have strong feelings on the matter...
I played with a Belgian dude. He invited me and the drummer over for Belgian beers once. There’s a thing where they serve each beer in its particular shaped glass. He didn’t actually give us Stella.
 
Ah, I thought you were referring to an alcoholic beverage. Well to me, the most delicious beverage on the planet Earth is Coca Cola. (Uh oh, I just started a Coke vs Pepsi WAR!)
I would agree with this statement.

Unfortunately, or fortunately, I am eliminating as much processed sugar as I can from my diet for health reasons, so Coke Zero for me...;)
 
I've never tried this for fear I will love it.

My youngest has and has also confirmed those fears...;)

I don't drink a lot of sodas, but when I do, it's typically diet with about 10% something with real cane sugar. Or occasionally a root beer or Dr Pepper with real cane sugar. In a glass bottle. Nothing else tastes the same.
