Beck's and Beck's Dark
I've been trying Beck's in various stages of freshness in the last few weeks. Very tasty and made in the US.

Re: Beck's and Beck's Dark
Beck's is made in St. Louis now. Not the same beer of years past, but still a good beer. Night and day difference with the Bavarian lagers, but still has a lodo freshness.

Beck's and Beck's Dark
They produce the Beck's line of beers in St. Louis and Williamsburg.
Below is the email concerning the freshness dating I sent AB as well as the list of US production facilities:

Re: Beck's and Beck's Dark
Thanks for posting! Totally grabbing a sixer soon. I have not had the new stuff yet, but I really liked the Beck's hop character and would die to come up with something similar. It seemed to have an aggressive bite that I liked alot. I was convinced they (and other pils brewers that I like) might be using Northern Brewer or higher alpha in a blend in the late additions.

Re: Beck's and Beck's Dark
When I lived in Korea (2000-2001) among the only non American mega brews we could get on the military bases was Becks (light and dark) and Heineken (light and dark).
I haven't had any of them in years, but I recall preferring Becks for the light side and Heineken for the dark (because I think that Heineken light, at least what you get in the states, is absolute crap and always skunked.
Heineken dark though was a really nice beer.
I wonder if I'd still feel the same 16 years later.
Maybe a quest for Heineken Dark is in order.
