Two Philly Guys Sue Budweiser for “Weak Beer”

Nope I didn’t make this up….two of our finest are suing Anheuser-Busch because Budweiser is “weak.”  Details from Bloomberg:

AB InBev routinely adds extra water to its finished products to produce malt beverages with significantly less alcohol content than displayed on its labels, Thomas and Gerald Greenberg said in a complaint filed yesterday in federal court in Philadelphia. The company’s exaggeration of the alcohol content violates Pennsylvania’s consumer protection statutes, according to the complaint.

“AB’s customers are overcharged for watered-down beer and AB is unjustly enriched by the additional volume it can sell,” according to the filing.

The complaint accuses Leuven, Belgium-based AB InBev of also mislabeling the amount of alcohol in Bud Ice, Bud Light Platinum, Michelob, King Cobra, Busch Ice, Black Crown, Bud Light Lime, Hurricane High Gravity Lager, Natural Ice and Michelob Ultra.
