Yes, Miller High Life, the Champagne of bottled beer. That was their ad slogan. Then they came up with Miller lite and that whole thing got started.

Is how I heard it. Doesn't fit me though. I have beer taste with a beer Budget. 😊 I also have a good friend who has beer taste on a champagne budget.

...I guess they wanted to make it sound fancier than other malt liquors like Colt 45, Olde English 800, and my favorite - Mickey's Big Mouth.

It probably didn't come in a "40" either.

mongers will shop around for the most bang for the buck. Why spend 1K on a provider if you can find another provider with equal performance and maybe a 9 instead of a 10 in looks? Let me ask this question--what do you see when you are in the midst of a hot passionate DFK session?

I just checked prices ... can get a 750ml bottle of Andre champagne for $4.   And a six pack (6x350 ml) Corona for $9.  

So two bottles of Andre 1500ml $8.  Six Corona 2100 ml $9.  Champagne is only 25% more.

Not all sparkling wine is Champagne; the genuine article is that sparkling wine made in the region of France called (yep) Champagne! Sparkling wine from any other location is not Champagne, so the example cited above about the $4 "champagne" is not a valid comparison.

Entry price for the "real deal" bubbles is about $50 per bottle.

There are some very nice examples from California, made by French houses with Champagne locations and history, that were selling for $25-ish per bottle during the holidays.

Just like p4p, there are experiences available at a wide range of prices and tastes. If you want the genuine article, well -- my experience has been that the good stuff is generally a bit more expensive but worth it. YMMV.

Enjoy!

It's not just where that nasty shit comes from that disqualifies Andre from being actual "Champagne" Andre gets it's bubbles by injecting CO2 just like how they make soda pop as opposed to the natural effervescence that is created by the Méthode Champenoise which is the way REAL Champagne is made.

 
I will agree that the "real deal" starts at around fifty bucks for a decent, but non vintage Champagne like a Gold Label Veuve.

 
Back to Andre, I would MUCH rather drink Miller High Life than that nasty stuff that Andre tries to pass of as Champagne, but there are some Sparkling wines from California among other places from about ten dollars that are perfectly fine to use to mix up a batch of Mimosas, and a lot of very drinkable sparkling wines in the $20-30 range, but if you want the truly "good stuff" it's not going to be a "bit" more expensive, it's going to be a LOT more expensive if you want to step up to a good bottle of Krug or a Grand Dame Veuve, or even that swill that rich people with no taste love to drink like Crystal or Dom. Just like with hookers, just because a bottle of Champagne costs a lot of money doesn't mean it's actually of any higher quality. lol

You can call non-french champagne sparkling wine, but that's just a bow to government enforced monopoly.

In blind taste tests for inexpensive champagnes, Andre came out on top.

I get a kick out of wine snobs.  Blind taste tests consistently prove they can't tell the difference between an $8 bottle and an $80 bottle.  And yet they persist in telling us what refined palates they have.

I don't even need to taste it. You can just look at it and know it's crap. Real Champagne and all but the cheapest sparkling wines have "tiny bubbles" that are naturally produced via a process commonly called the "method de Champagne" Swill like Andre gets it's bubbles the same way that Coca Cola gets it's bubbles, by being injected with CO2. If you can't tell the difference between soda pop and Champagne then you simply have no taste and your opinion is about as worthwhile as a guy who tries to compare a $40 street walker to a "well reviewed TER provider"

 
Any one with any kind of palate can tell the difference between the two. Just because you have no taste, doesn't mean that applies to the rest of us.

 
Now if you would like to argue that many of the California Sparkling wines are just as good as their French cousins at twice the price, yes you could make a valid case that the California product/s are just as good or at least they are on the lower end of the market.  

 
I suppose next you are going to try to argue that a Hennessy VS Cognac tastes every bit as good as an XO. I am not going to argue that you always "get what you pay for" but in many things there is a quantum leap between the lower and upper ends of the quality spectrum. Champagne and premium liquor are just a couple of examples of where this applies.

I have found that people who use this term are not accustomed to the good things in life. I'd rather spend good money on an experience rather than having a watered-down version of something.
