Stella really has pissed away its brand equity in a spectacular way. I continue to believe that the strength reduction from 5.2% to 5.0% was a major mistake as it took away a USP.<br /><br />But I have to agree with Barm that you really shouldn't go on about beer being cheaper than water - that is about as accurate as saying pushbikes are dearer than new cars.Curmudgeonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02558747878308766840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30743480.post-23683626669469101322009-11-08T13:22:41.417+00:002009-11-08T13:22:41.417+00:00AJT said it all....AJT said it all....Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11319272987951077205noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30743480.post-81776644392385395572009-11-08T13:08:08.184+00:002009-11-08T13:08:08.184+00:00I thought it was a good piece and remarkably in-de...I thought it was a good piece and remarkably in-depth, but what made you start repeating the nonsense about beer being cheaper than water?Rob Sterowskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07870233673933087794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30743480.post-86731291358063307302009-11-08T12:10:44.287+00:002009-11-08T12:10:44.287+00:00what’s the problem? You’re a professional writer, ...what’s the problem? You’re a professional writer, you get paid, you express an opinion and move on (I mean I’ve seen Roger P in there as well) — and yes it’s a good piece and they do pay well (the pay gap between the newspapers and the ‘beer press’ is appalling, but that’s what happens when you do something for love). It’s not as if you were writing for Disembowel All Cats Weekly or Genocide Monthly.Adrian Tierney-Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05421802854011395300noreply@blogger.com
