Miller is next to the interstate so when you drive by, you smell it for about 2 miles.

I got no problem drinkin coors either. I dont like that thick **** like guiness. its horrible. I try to stay away from the dark stuff as well.

I used to like rolling rock until I got really drunk on it. Boy was that a mistake that night, AND the next day. Sam Adams Cherry-Wheat is also really tastey. Its a great "social" beer for cookouts or whatever to just have a few.

I stumbled upon it myself. I was at the bar and we were drinking 25 cent cups and dollar pitchers of it so they could get rid of it. We tapped the end of that barrel pretty quick. We were kinda upset when that was the last of it!

I Love guinness, It's my hands down favorite beer. And you like Smithwicks so at least you're still supporting the guinness corporation. (gotta help out my Irish brethren) I personally prefer a darker beer over a light beer. I like guiness draught just for drinking, And guinness stout is awesome with a big meal. Smithwicks is okay, It's better than harp. Newcastle is okay straight, and freaking delicious with a shot of jager in it.

You guys are naming some stuff I have never heard of, and I used to work in a bar. On the other hand though, when Im not drinking my norm (Miller Light) I like to have St. Paulie Girl or some Killian's Irish Red.

wtf miller and steel reserve im seriously going to have to hunt some of you down. Hasn't anyone actually tried other ****, yeah Guinness is good but there are far better beers out there and i hate beer. I only just started to enjoy some of the finer beers. I found one called "old engine oil" it has a picture of an old MG like i have and i had to try and it well it was good. That with a skull splitter and you got what is know as a "greasy skull".

damn you got some anger there man. people like that stuff because you can buy a 30 rack and get hammered cheap with a few friends. Just cause you don't like it you don't have to be a hater. I don't like budweiser either, but i understand some people just drink it because they don't like having to buy something that only comes in bottles, or in packs of 12 or less. It's all beer man, therefore, it's all good in the long run. Thats the beauty of beer, everyone likes something different

every time i throw a party i get a keg of budlight or coors light. Easy beer that most people will enjoy. but every single time some ******* has to come up and bitch about it and say i shoulda gotten a keg of "insert dark/amber/ale/whatever" which at least half of the people at the party wouldnt drink. I normally tell them if they dont want Free Coors to go buy thier own ****ing beer. Then when they grumble and go to get a cup, i pull it from thier hands and say "No, go get yer own ****ing beer"

ive never understood this entire "Elitism" that some people develop around beer. That they are too good for coors, too good for budweiser etc etc. Well, one thing nobody can argue with is the numbers dont lie, more people preffer light beers from coors, bud and miller than any other beer in america. So to say you dont like that stuff is yer own preference, but to imply that it is crappy beer and everyone who disagrees is somehow ignorant, well, 90% of beer drinkers must be ignorant. To simply sit and say major label beer is garbage just really makes somone sound like they think thier own **** down stink and they are too good for everyone else.

The way i see it, beer is beer. Coors and Bud light are great beers, and if anyone disagrees that is fine with me, but please be careful i wouldnt want any of the holier-than-thou beer spilled on yer burberry scarves and caviar. In fact, please, let me open the bottle for you, i wouldnt want your pretty manicured fingers to be injured while opening a twist top, that is of course, if the unwashed are worthy of touching the beer of the clean.

lol...

its just beer. seriously. dont get snobby about major label beer. its just so,.... gay...
preach it man!
