You must like sitting on the porcelain throne a lot.

Bud anything gives me an instant headache, I prefer Sam Adams light if I was to drink a light beer.

I'm a beer snob. When I drink beer, I'm not drinking to get drunk, I'm drinking to enjoy the flavor of the beer. And to that end, the domestic macros are extremely unsatisfying. Bud, Miller, Coors, Michelob, PBR.... There's nothing inherently wrong with them, they just simply aren't that great. They are made for mass-market appeal, which means low flavor, meant to be drunk ice cold so they seem refreshing, but the cold is merely masking the fact that the flavor isn't very good. And this wouldn't be a problem except that with so many fantastic beers the world has to offer, why would I waste my time drinking something that was average at best?

I won't fault anyone for their choice in beverage. You found a beer you like, and more power to you. I'll toss back a macro myself if I'm hanging out watching a game with my friends... and I'll enjoy it. But you're never going to convince me that it's the "best beer". I'm never going to go out and intentionally buy Bud Light. I'm never going to think that it's better to freeze my palatte off with a low-flavor beer that needs to be drunk ice cold to be even remotely satisfying when I could treat myself to the complexities of a fine porter, stout, ipa, pale ale, trappist, hefeweizen, or any other of the hundreds of beers I've had that I consider better than Bud Light... and the thousands more I've yet to try.

Life's too short to limit yourself to just one beer.

If it's scorching hot and I want something ice cold and that tastes more watery than water, yeah, I'll guzzle a Bud Light.

I drink all beers, but do prefer brown ales and the occasional hef.

This. I figure since nerds can't get chicks or have much of a social life, they attempt to compensate for their lack of manliness by pretending to know more than the average guy about beer. There are of course true beer snobs that are also real men, but it is certainly not the case with the majority of ATOT beer snobbery.

Crack that Stella and fire up some WoW, boys.

edit: and to the OP, if you had a pint, I'm assuming you had it on tap somewhere. Not the same as a bottled Bud Light. just sayin

If I wanted to drink urine I'd move to Germany and at least get paid for it.

Generally any gold colored beer tastes like ass to me, though you occasionally find a good one. Personally I'm more for stouts, bitters, etc. My basic rule of thumb for a truly GREAT beer is that it has to be blacker than my ex-wifes soul, and can (at its own choosing) climb out of the glass, march up my arm, force open my mouth, and shove itself down my throat.

It's been pretty successful in the past few years and is a decent beer, but I think it's just Bud Light with 100% more water. (j/k)

actually i think ultra was developed first and then miller changed its marketing after ultra gained tons of market share very rapidly.

oddly enough, i think miller lite tastes more like budweiser than bud light does.

That stuff is piss...plain and simple...you want a smooth domestic beer that doesn't taste like horse piss than Miller ANYTHING is TRULY the only way to go. High Life and Light are awesome beers...now not the best, but if we're talking domestic than yes.

Budweiser...none of you have even sub-par taste.

This post is funny. You don't really think Miller is that much of a step above, do you? Miller Lite, Coors Light, and Bud Light are all very similar. The same? No. Close enough that a hissy fit like that is not warranted? Yes.

Unless you were being sarcastic....

Lol Beer. It's good to quench a thirst for the most part. Now Scotch that's a different story.

In general I completely agree, but since the thread was about beer I figured I'd limit my criticism to beer only
