Rarely. Rarrrreeely. Most are just so damn plain. If I want a plain beer I'll drink piss from pbr.
 
I've enjoyed a lot of their beers over the years, but am I the only one who thinks they keep putting out basically the same White Ale with wheat/spices under different names? Seriously, they've done that beer at least 4 times in the last couple years.
 
I just had their Rebel IPA after my Dad recommended it. I was pleasantly surprised.

I'll drink SA when other options are limited. But, it annoys me to see them dominate the beer isle. At some point I would like to see more local brews instead of larger company.

SA makes good stuff, a wide variety, and every year they have new seasonal beers. Yeah, I like it. In places where ButtLite rules, you can usually find one type of SA.

Yep. I was playing blackjack at a Vegas casino last months. The cocktail waitress rattled off the normal BMC litany when I asked what beer they had. I made a yuck face and said, "anything else?" They ended up having Boston Lager. I hadn't had one in quite a while. It was pretty darn good. The only beer of theirs that I really don't care for is the cherry wheat.

I wonder if the craft beer renaissance in the U.S. would be where it is now (which is wonderful) if it weren't for SA breaking a lot of ground years ago.
 
I have never had an SA brew that I thought was disgusting.... one or two I did not care for... that cherry thing for instance. All of their brews however I'd buy over the BMC crowd ANYDAY! Plus I reused the bottles LOL
