Ach du lieber!
You wouldn't know from looking at the cans but the Beck's beer I bought last night at Wal-Mart was not brewed in Germany. It says "Originated in Germany" but when you read the fine print it is a product of the USA.
I'm as patriotic as the next guy but I am sorry to report that it just does not taste the same. Business Week had a cover story about this and they were right.
Das ist schade, as my German teacher used to say...
It's not just a Wal-Mart thing, it's the producer. I liked the old globalization better :-(
