I had my first Crispin Cider after last weekends mow. Man, I thought that was refreshing. I drank keystone light throughout college.

I'll have to try that crispin cider, I am definitely guilty of the keystone light offense too haha
 
I had a coors light just before my last batch of home brew was finished. Just so I could get my taste buds ready for some real beer! I do agree with what alot of you are saying about it being refreshing though; I will rarley turn down a beer if offered to me though.

Tell you what, after a double brew day and it's hot as hell in the house, a nice cold yellow piss beer taste just fine to me.
 
Used to be a Miller Lite Drinker, and I can't stand that stuff anymore. But, I can stand a Coors or Bud every so often as they just seem more crisp to me (which is the ONLY thing I look for in the big 3).

As someone else said, the nice thing about cheap beer is that you can drink the hell out of it. When my college friends and I get together for a beer they'd make fun of me because I'd only have one or two craft beers (8 to 10%). But when we all got together and drank at a game or some get together I'd drink them under the table when I resorted to drinking that swill.

Gotta admit though, on a hot summer day a bud light lime tastes pretty damn good. For whatever reason if you're going to put a lime in something you might as well get bud light lime.

Oh...I'm a nay on bringing back the hangings. I say we break out the pitchforks and torches!!
 
A buddy of mine who loves good craft beer and drinks the hell out of my homebrew when hes over is still a coors light drinker. He has been for ever. I dont mind it ( drank enough of his over the years) He has no clue why but its always his sandby. I dont judge the beer drinker for what he drinks but more for what he wont drink.
 
every once in a while, a cheap ass can of swill is pretty tasty. i'm enjoying a stag right now.

There is nothing wrong with an ice cold Stag. I use to live fairly close to the brewery and every bar around had .50 cent Stag drafts. Hell I think I had Stag in my baby bottle. Lol

I was in my buddy's wedding last year. The morning of the wedding they had a grooms men's lunch. The offered all of the free Coors light we could drink.

Did the bride know about this? Seems ballsy to offer the wedding party bottomless beers BEFORE the ceremony. Did any excitement ensue?
 
I still can't do the ____ Lime's. If it were real lime juice or someone dropped a lime in a BMC I would have no problem with it. It is just the margarita mix sweet lime flavor really offends my taste buds. Reminds me of my first Tequiza. Was not yet 21, my father bought a 6 on a whim, I asked what he thought about it and he let me have the first one. I finished it, but the remaining 4 sat in the fridge until they disappeared or got tossed.

no thanks. But I can still go back to a BL/Bud Heavy/other BMC at will.
 
I don't mind a Coors Light occasionally (plus one of my good friends tends to always have it in stock at his house), but I find it always gives me a headache before a buzz.
 
Bad flavorless beer or not, its reasonable when stuffing your face full of obscene amounts of food. Long live our home brew though!
 
I just won't drink it anymore it has been years since I had one but the last BMC product I had tasted of corn and it was just too overwhelming for me to even finish.
 
Coors Light makes me want to pee endlessly, great diuretic effect. Also, when I was a smoker I loved an ice cold CL -- there was no need to bother with the taste of it when you're downing 2 packs of cigs a day.
 
I've found CL works well as a sobering up beer. It's a cheap and effective solution if you don't want to wake up the next day with a hangover, but don't want to stop drinking.
 
I grew up in Colorado and drank an ocean full of CL. The only time I drink it now is when I go back home and it is the only thing in the fridge. Once it crosses state lines I can not even drink it for free. That stuff is not good to begin with and the further it travels the worse it is.
 
When it's 100 degrees out and I just finished with yard work I'd take a Coors Light over an Imperial Stout any day. An American Light Lager is a style of beer and it's not an easy one to make without flaws so I don't put them down, I just don't usually drink them.

I personally don't like wheat beers and I don't put them down either. If I only had a choice between a wheat or a Coors I'd take the Coors.
 
I had a CL at a house warming party last weekend. Everyone was mock checking for a fever on my head and asking me if I felt alright. To be honest, the beer was gone before I knew it. There's something to serving a beer so cold that it knumbs your tastebuds.

Also, I have never found beer refreshing. The last thing I want while mowing the lawn is an alcoholic beverage of any kind. More power to y'all.

Yup. Before I got my buddies into craft beer this was me just about every night.
 
BMC is what got me into beer years ago, but anymore I have a very hard time going back. I'd take an ice water over a Coors Light, regardless the heat/situation/mowing etc. While I appreciate the introduction, I must say I've moved on and am not looking back.
 
You guys can't trick me. Coors Light is ****. As is Bud Light and Miller Light. Just because you can drink it when it's so hot that anything light and cold is refreshing doesn't make it any less ****ty. Try a cold glass of ice water. That's refreshing and won't get you drunk after 6 of them either.
 
Everything has it's place, that's for sure. For me, if I want clean cold refreshment I grab a tall glass of water. Nothing is better while I'm mowing the lawn than something that won't dehydrate me.

I'm not against drinking BMC stuff. It's fine. Not my first choice, or my second or third, but it's on the list somewhere.
 
If I get strong urges to drink BMC, I will check into AA.

But BMC does not interfere with what you are eating. Last time I tried one, hard to swallow it. With food, its drinkable due to the food's aftertaste.
 
this **** is so annoying. coors light tastes good. better than most ****ty homebrew with ten thousand malts, four pounds of hops, and fermented for three months at 70 degrees

They are well made, just well made pieces of crap. I would love to work for them to learn how to brew though, they certainly have the technique down.

I work in a medium sized craft brewery, and even at the 100bbl scale, commercial brewing is very different. For the macros, it's an industrial engineering project, all hard piped dedicated lines, packaging millions of containers a day, and they pasteurize. They ARE masters of process control, however, and have exacting standards.

Then why do you spend the time to make homebrew when you can grab a cheap 30 and be groovy? Confused
