You know, it's a lot better over here in Europe but I'm still not a fan. Although when I went to Amsterdam I don't think I saw any Dutch people actually drinking Heineken. Speaking of beer being better over here, holy shit Guinness is SO much better. Kilkenny is alright too, but it's pretty weak. Hefeweizen is becoming my new favorite type of beer though as I'm straying away from the darker stuff. If you get a chance try Paulaner or Schofferhofer. Also, I have a mini-rant, I live in a brewery town, one of the biggest breweries in Germany and their most popular beer is shit. It's seriously like bud or miller lite.
Although palatable, It tastes like cold medicine to me. Surprisingly I saw no locals drinking it in Amsterdam. Mostly Becks, Hoegaarden, Stella or Amstel. Not Heiny.
I'm guessing that German beer must be Becks. That shit is terrible. I'd gladly drink a Bud over that. Heineken isn't anything special. I guess its one of those beer you drink if you're looking for that distinctive skunky flavor.
It's Bitburger. I'm pretty sure they brew it for the color and not the flavor because it is like the most perfect gold color. It'll get you fucked up on the cheap though.
I've had Bitburger, I didn't mind it too much. I agree though, the color is perfect. Btw, I feel Budweiser gets a bad wrap because of the white trash who prefer it. And I'm not talking about Bud Light. For what it is, and what its made to be, it isn't bad. Not great, but better than Molson XXX or Becks.
Around here Heiny is the only beer you'll see a black person drink. I mean that quite literally. Is it hired-wired into ebony DNA, like shouting advice at movie characters? I like Hoegarrden though. Great beer, and it comes a badass specialty glass designed to bust over your harrasser's brain pan.
Yup. And shockingly, most of them are french. I know, confused me at first too. For the longest time I thought the blacks only lived in Africa, Chicago and Atlanta.
London, Ontario. "The Shitty London", as I refer to it. Crown lives there and I went to school there for a bit. Neat fact: it was named London, and the river in it named the Thames, in the grand ambition of it becoming the capital of Canada. Unfortunately, it's a town in the middle of nowhere, with the only things of significance being a university and a factory for LAVs for the army.
It's significance is the home of medicated insulin and Labatt's. It clean as fuck, criminally boring and run by people who should have steel plant forklifts driven back and forth over their bodies. Everything is named after something in London UK. I live in Hyde Park, the main streets are Dundas, Oxford, York, King, Queen, Wellington, Talbot, Waterloo, Adelaide, Fanshawe, etc. all British, we even have an area called SoHo and the central park is called Victoria Park. Sickens me. To kiss the ass of a monarchy for any reason at all is worse than Hitler.
I'm eating my words after talking shit about Bitburger, because I just discovered Kostritzer Schwarzbier, probably my favorite dark beer I've tried so far while here, is made by Bitburger. Although I guess they only recently bought the other brewery out so I don't credit them with too much.
But surprisingly, they were all super nice. People in London were definitely more reserved than in Dublin, but once you had reason to interact with them, they were super nice. I just tried to ignore the overall stench of Frenchiness (since the English are ethnically a good portion French - countdown to English Board Members Stroking Out in 5...4...3...).
What the fuck else do you want me to name, Mr. So-And-So? Slippery the Seal? The Biebs? Jenny Jones? Hey Michael Wincott is from here, he's a decent character actor. Yeah, all this and more. Big. Fucking. Deal.

You could mention the headquarters of 3M Canada, and the Kellogg's plant. To say nothing of Western Fairgrounds. Oh, and how about the local hockey team, the London Knights? This post brought to you by Wikipedia.
You know, I've met a couple of French Canadians and they were always douchey, but actual French people have not lived up to the bad stereotype that we give them. They've all been pretty polite and actually pleasant. The English on the other hand... are generally cunts with a massive superiority complex.
