    I second that notion.

    You were talking about Busch beer?
    Or G.W. Bush?
    Or the good kind of bush?

    I'm partial to Saison Dupont (<--- current fave), Samuel Smith's Oatmeal Stout (<--- perrenial fave) or Pilsner Urquell (<--- The original Pilsner), Grolsch, Negra Modelo (<--- the best Mexican beer ever), Chimay (<--- the best beer ever made), De Koninck (<--- the inspiration for Fat Tire) and so forth. I also experience a bit of heaven whenever I can enjoy a good lambic. I'd love to visit Belgium and have a true staight lambic since it's the only place you get one!

    No offense intended to anyone but I just can't get into the mass produced American beers. There're some smaller breweries here in the States that put out some excellent beers, Dixie Blackened Voodoo is the first that comes to mind.

    BUD all the way! My fav beers include:

    -Bud Light
    -Rolling Rock
    -Heineken

    But I'm more of a vodka person myself.

    LOL Neph. They all get you to where you want to be. And, good taste is important, on the first few, but after that, your taste buds may just as well be up your ass, because you aren't going to be able to tell the difference between a good brew and a bad one, anyway. :)

    Since tone inflections are non-existent in posts, I will tell you that I am joking. :)

    Ohh that's so true Bruce! Lord knows I'ver been there a time or two ;)

    For medical reasons it's not in my best interest to slug 'em like I used to so I usually partake in just one beer on any given occasion so I make the most of it :)

    papst beer is good for when you are short of cash, it's like 5.99 for a 12 pack.

    When I was in the Army I used to buy a microbrewed beer called Shiner Bock.....really good stuff. Unfortunately it's not available in my area. Neph might be able to ship me some since he's down there in the southwest.

    But for general drinking I pick up Michelob light or Bud with an occasional Icehouse just for shits and giggles.

    Does Root Beer count? <G>

    When I was going to college, I worked for Stroh's Brewery in Detroit. What GrandpaBW mentioned about “after one taste” is so true. The actual taste testers would be sent home if they swallowed any beer. They had to swish it in there mouth for taste testing purposes. But there is nothing like fresh, and I mean so fresh it hasn’t even been bottled or canned yet beer, straight from what was called the government cellars where all the beer was kept until time to can or bottle.

    The nicest thing about working there was that on your breaks you were allowed to drink “Shorts”, or bottles that were kicked because they were not filled to the top. You could drink all you wanted, but if you were or got drunk, you were sent home. Honestly, that rarely even happened to anyone. Ah, those were the days, ice cold beer, fresher then keg beer!!!! <G>

    Oh, and since Strohs is made from corn, not rice, it has a different taste and still my favorite.

    you guys ever tried Sprecker? I used to go to school with a guy who worked at their brewery, and he'd bring in some stuff that wasn't even released yet. Pretty damn good stuff. I also like the Heineken, rolling rock, and a few others I can't think of offhand right now.
