I'm sorry but light beer sucks.

He's probably doing amazing things with ferm-and-serve-in-keg, for which I doth envy him.

I will choose Bud Light over Milkshake IPA exactly 100% of the time.

Fight me.

The only fight I’d have is to say if we’re drinking light beers I’d go for coors

 

[GilSwillBasementBrews]

The correct answer is Genny Cream Ale

Grew up drinking Genny. Was my old man go to until they did away with returnable bottles. Then he picked up miller and I stopped stealing them lol.

"Light beer" to me is now a Belgian Tripel. Now that I'm stocked up on bottles (I do not give them away since they're flip-tops) and filled bottles, I'm not buying out that often. The people at the specialty beer store probably miss me.
Never say never: I find it hard to resist buying Dragonmead Final Absolution when I see it.

Oh I was making a more rhetorical statment than a specidic brand preference. For me Miller or Bud (I could go either) > Coors, but my cheap swill of choice is PBR. I'll crush some Natty Boh too.

 

[Jayjay1976]

Natural Villain by Goose Island is pretty decent "swill-style" beer without actually being cheap swill.

But if I'm at a dive bar I'll enjoy the hell out of a few PBR, Hamm's, or Coors banquet, I ain't above it.

 

[verboten]

I’m drinking light beer right now. This keg is almost gone since my neighbors helped me empty it. I’ll make more.

 

[grampamark]

Hamm’s is my cheap beer of choice, but if I can find Sessions Lager (a little more expensive but worth it) is hard to beat.

I like milkshake ipas, a lot!

I went through a period where I had similar sentiment and then I realized I like bud light better than budweiser and many others.

See light beer at least has a purpose, its low in calories. Also, you can drink a bunch and not get to crazy. Last, on a hot summer day an ice cold bud light is refreshing. So yeah, I dont buy it anymore, but at least it has some value.

Is anyone drinking this swill for anything beyond price. Was just a a bon-fire and the choices were all something Light. Damn. They ranged from piss(miller) to Huh? (coors). Does anyone still like beer flavor? These are not it.

Expanding a little coors light has won numerous awards at gabf in light lager or American lager going back to 1990, here are a few there were 3 or 4 other times they medaled.
