So after all of this discussion are there really any quality light beers out there that calorie counting individuals can seek out?

Sam Adams light is the best I have had, but, it's not that light calorie wise.So after all of this discussion are there really any quality light beers out there that calorie counting individuals can seek out?

It just amazes me the the economics of the big brewers (BMC) would rather spend millions of dollars on these add campaigns rather than investing an extra 10 to 15 cents per bottle to put out a better product. I kind of wonder if these new beers put out by the big BMC companies are just older recipes reformulated to act like something new.
I was too young to buy Miller Dakota when it came out but I recall this being advertised as something new grown in the heartland that your father's father would enjoy drinking back in the day. Can anyone burst my memory bubble and tell me how this stuff tasted?

I absolutely refuse to pay for beer from the large conglomerate beer companies.
Does that include all that they own? Widmer, Shock Top, Goose Island, Stella and it goes on and on

Absolutely. Have you seen the documentary Beer Wars? I highly recommend it. The Big Three have virtually cornered the market on beer. Any upstarts or microbrewery doesnt stand a chance to market their beer to the public. The Govt condones the triad distribution of brewery distributer consumer, with the help of distributer lobbyists that keep the craft beer out of the stores.
Since I have been AG brewing, I havent bought anything except Yuengling on occasion.
I highly recommend "Ambitious Brew" by Maureen Ogle. It is a lot more factual about the history and current state of beer in the US. If "the man" were suppressing craft beer, why are their record numbers of new, or in the works, micro breweries right now?
What I don't get is they say" we removed the filler".....what filler? The taste filler? I understand that craft brews are not for everyone, but the "triple filtered, removing the fillers, cold aged," talk really gets me.
I enjoy the punch top can and vortex bottle.
Also bud light platinum is "triple filtered" and has "top shelf taste"...what a joke.
A 1.88% increase since 2007. Just think what it would be without restrictions. All I am saying is that the Big Three have a stranglehold on the throats of the beer-drinking public.
