well no, bud light is still #1, budweiser just is no longer #2. all it means is that the demand for light american beers is much bigger than the demand for regular american beers. now that that is out of the way, commence unrelated beer snob thread...NOW

Oh, you are talking about craptastic Domestic beer.

I'll be expecting my thank you letter from Coors for making them #1.

I personally enjoy the High Life myself.

It is the champagne of beers after all.

I don't think I've ever actually had Coors Light. I've had regular Coors, which is far from the worst of the adjunct filled American pilsners. My go-to for the type is Old Style because it's local and sells for $4.49 for a sixer of tallboys, so at least you're not overpaying for the crap you're drinking.

Also, brats turn out best when you cook them in Old Style or PBR.

Coors light is some bland crap. Apparently most Americans like water with beer flavoring.

Yes, "cold filtered" apparently translates to "strain all sources of character and taste out of the beer."

There really aren't words to describe the sh*ttyness of Coors Light. God, what a horrible, horrible beer.

When I go to my local pub that has 24 beers on draft, and I see guys drinking Coors Light out of a bottle, I just want to go over and ask them "why do you hate beer? Why are you even here?"

FTFA: Budweiser, meanwhile, has dropped by more than 60% from its 50 million barrel peak in 1988, Beer Marketer's reported. The brand has tried a variety of messages to get out of the funk, including taglines such as "Great American Lager" and "It's What We Do" in recent years. In 2010, A-B brought on ad agency Anomaly in an effort to enliven the brand and reach out to younger audiences.

It simply doesn't occur to them that it could be a product problem, does it?

Budweiser/Bud light is not made by an American company, so I don't know if you can call it an American beer.

I wasn't aware you could call it beer....Hooooooooooooooooooooooo.

I have 5 gallons of an Irish Red Ale that just made it to the secondary fermenter last night and I'm looking at the porter ingredients I have to make my next batch. Drink whatever you want because I make mine from a pile of grains, sometimes some malt extract, and some yeast and, besides being fun, once you have the equipment it's pretty darned cheap to make. (Usually) high quality beer for 50 cents a bottle and it's fun as hell to make. Sure, a batch gets infected once in a while but hanging with some friends, drinking your own beer, meat on the smoker or grill, all while you make another batch...boy, that's just living the good life.

/THAT'S how to be a beer snob
//If you like Coors, Bud or Carling's Black label or whatever, drink it. There's no sense in drinking beer you don't like
