I think I ruined cheap beer

[hoosierdoc]

I haven't drank much beer in the last year or so, and when I did it was generally sun king, corona, or Miller Chill/Bud Light lime. I used to enjoy Coors light/miller light but now they just taste awful to me. I know... "That isn't beer!" And all that.

I am not a beer snob in any way, but now it looks like I may have to spend more on beer. Maybe my palate is just maturing.

As if to highlight the issue, my son just knocked over my Miller Light and spilled most of it while I was typing. Heh

I know how you feel. Not really the same thing, but my stomach won't let me drink much anymore so what I do have needs to be the good stuff.

Stick to zima instead.

Smithwicks
Killians
Amberbock

Then you complain there's none left for you. I don't need that

Did you even wait until the mountains were blue!?

Nah, my cousin used to drink that stuff. Yuck.

I have the same problem. I cannot drink "light" beer. If it isn't at least as strong as Sam Adam's Boston Lager I usually can't even taste it. SunKing's Osiris is a damn tasty beer and one of my favorites along with Three Floyds Robert the Bruce.

But my wallet can't always handle the special craft beers my palate desires. So I stick with national brands for cheap utility beer. Right now I have a 30 case of Busch but I also drink Coors Banquet when it goes on sale. Hamm's if its been a really slow week.

But I also try to keep a 4 pack of SunKing's Osiris or something similar for the weekend.

Isn't that Coors light with the coldness indicator?

I think i've had one. Blech.

I guess I'm lucky...My palate is immature: The only beer I've had to suffer through is some variety of Sam Adams and some other high-brow crap my SIL had at a get together. And I thought I could enjoy almost any of it.

I really like the Canadian beers, Molson, Labatts, Moosehead.....and they aren't very pricey. Hamms is darn good beer for the money. Lately, I've been drinking Sierra Nevada quite a bit. I've also liked most of the Goose Island offerings I've tried.

Yeah. I like Coors light.

But I have anosmia so my palate isn't exactly delicate.

I hear they have a spinal implant for that now

I can't stand most domestic. Sam adams blows. I like all of the goose island. the stronger the better.

 

[BehindBlueI's]

I like Sam Adams, but I also have gotten reacquainted with PBR. Leinenkugel is probably my favorite, though.

 

[nakinate]

Sam Adams, Sun King, Leinie, Barley Island etc are my regulars. Summer time I get the 10/$10 20oz cheap beer at Kroger. PBR, Labatt or Coors Original.

 

[sepe]

The new/old Schlitz is suppose to be really good. PBR is a pretty decent brew but the hipsters tried to ruin it. Leinenkugel's has some good stuff. Too many of the fancy craft/micro brews I've tried haven't been all that good, at least not good enough to justify the price. You can make better brews at home for close to the price of a case of cheap stuff (of course there is an initial investment and that pesky waiting period before you can enjoy the brews).

 

[nater30/30]

Geez, when I first started drinkin' ya could get a 24pk of Natty Ice for $6.99 at Marsh. S***, I thought, back then, ain't nothin' better. I'd die now lol

My favorites as of late, Moosehead, Stella, Warsteiner. I had to find something different when I quit buying Budweiser in protest. Budweiser (aka Buttwiper) is dead to me now.

Stella Artois is good. Another good Belguim is Hoegaarden.
