I did, sorta. First beer I ever really like the taste of was a homebrewed stout a friend of mine gave me. After that it was a Newcastle Brown. (Which is probably just the UK version of Bud.

) Before that I was convinced I really hated beer. Turns out I really just didn't care for Pilsners. (Have a house that stank of MGD after my brother's clandestine high school party didn't help much either.)
I also don't like the tactics and approach of the big three. I personally have serious issues with a number of large companies, it's not just them. In a lot of ways we're getting what we pay for (or don't). If everybody stopped buying Bud it would cease to be as a company, which is a good reason for me to introduce people to good beers, or at least let them know that there are other things out there besides the single monobeer that has been pushed onto the American public. Monocultures are bad matter what you're doing.
These days if somebody were to buy me a bud, I'd drink it and not make any nasty comments, but I doubt I'd buy one for myself. Further I'd heard that BMC are making decent beers in other styles. I could care less, I fully expect those would go the way of the do-do the moment all the indies closed up shop, and they could go back to pushing a single beer.
These companies are evil pure and simple, and I don't think that anybody should support them, no matter how cleverly devised their beers are.
