I don't know one single American who enjoys Budweiser, and I've lived here my entire life.
Well, okay, I'll take that back. The white trailer trash two houses down enjoy Bud Light, as they seem to have recycle bins full of those cans once every couple of weeks. That said, you're not going to find your typical white trash, NASCAR-loving, low-income redneck staying at an expensive, up-scale hotel such as the Four Seasons. You have to look at the typical type of clientele you're going to be serving and make a judgment call. In this case, I'd say that your F&B Director made a good one. |

before i started the job i would have said youre right. but having served every type of guest over the past few months i would like to say alot more people drink bud than you think. when i have my barbacks restock the fridges bud is among the highest consumed. to be specific. Heineken, Corona, and Bud/Light are our top 3 in no particular order. id also like to throw in the F&B director was given till the last day of may to find another job. ill take it up with his successor and take it from there |

The only time I've ever enjoyed Budweiser was when I took a tour of the brewery in St. Louis 2 years ago. It was so fresh and actually tasted great.
I have never drank Bud since :gsmile: |

Considering you work at the Four Seasons Miami, a beer is probably what - 6? 7$? Not sure people would pay 7$ for a Bud. lol
The others are really quite pushing it enough, so if you keep the selection minimal and reasonably exotic, I'd say people are somewhat more inclined to pay the steep price, especially seeing as how their only other option is to raid the ridiculous minifridge in their room or like, go out and buy their own beer [lol].
//Man, I bet you guys charge ~20% room service gratuity, too. ing 9-10$ Bud. hahaha. That's almost as expensive as gasoline. :wtf: |

| A lot of American microbrews are great. As is Yuengling. The mass-produced stuff leaves a lot to be desired though. |

| Bud is terrible, but Coors Light truly is the worst of beers. |
