That's the one I'd chose.

I'm allergic to Red Hook, a local micro brew. It affects me as you describe.

Coors anything, but then again I wouldn't drink it so I wouldn't know if I were allergic to it.

Hated the aftertaste ...

Now I just hate then because they keep buying up craft breweries, some that I really like (Widmer?)

Anyways ... don't drink bud or it's many many variants ...

Seems to me that being allergic to Budweiser would be no greater a burden on one's life than being allergic to goat pee.

Especially red wine. She developed this later in her life after drinking beer and wine for years. We thought it might have been an allergy to the yeast or some other components of the wine. Even if we did not see her drink wine, we could tell just by the way she would wheeze. You could hear it across a room.

but i haven't had wine in years so....maybe it's changed--i'm not sure if they still use sulfates or not.

if your mom was wheezing she could have been having a problem breathing (asthma attack?)

i also had an asthma attack after eating a salad in a restaurant years ago & later discovered they put sulfates in the salad to keep it fresh.

i stopped eating salads in restaurants for years

Many people get a stuffy nose after drinking wine. It doesn't seem to bother my husband as much as it does me but certain wines affect him more.

11. You know about the teabagger and the Budweiser?

This teabagger went to a bar called The Town Democrat every night, ordered six Budweisers, drank them, then started calling the president every name in the book until someone went over and punched him in the face to shut him up. This shit went on for two whole weeks and more and more people started coming in to watch it...finally, one night he walked in, ordered six cans of Coors, and five hundred people started moaning.

"But you always order Bud!" the bartender said.
"I gotta change. Bud gives me nosebleeds."

According to Mike McMenamin Budweiser is NOT beer. They take the finest hop pellets, malted barley, rice and water, and feed it to the prize winning Clydesdales. What they piss out is Budweiser. Drink Victory Prima Pils instead. Your body will thank you.
