Hey, I mostly drink light beer because I drink SO DAMN much of it.
I don't drink sodas and drink beer like water. Although I do make sure to get my adequate water consumption each day.
If I drank exclusively good heavier beers I would be even MORE of a drunk and have an even BIGGER beer belly. No thanks.

Went to a fish and oyster fry Sunday and there was a keg of Coors Light. I can't understand why ANYBODY would willingly drink it!!! Ok, it was
included and I did have a couple of glasses, IF there had been decent beer I would have consumed more so they did me a favor!!

At 18 p's per d that's (99/18)/12 or 46 cents per beer!!
Even Coors Light tastes good at that price.

When I was a kid in WA Coors was not sold, so was a rare bird, had mystique, people coming from out of state would bring it.
Never was impressed with coors or any of the mass-produced lagers, but we drank them because that's all there was.
The chit we drank in the 70s and 80s was pee compared to today's good microbrews.
While I am nostalgic for Raineer, Mickeys BigMouth, schlitz, generic beer and colt 45, I don't miss them!
Anybody still drinking coors, Miller, bud, tecate, etc., must be a smoker with dead taste buds!

Were you aware that the Mexicali you drink tastes
nothing like the traditional Mexicali. The new Mexicali phony craft beer tastes more like Bud Light, just ask the most interesting man in the
world

Don't make me remember, at 18 or so, up chucking on
Colt 45 and Country Club malt liquor. Swore, at the time
to never drink beer again. First Mex beer was I believe
XXX in a can surfing San Miguel, a little no. of Ensenada
1969?

Well technically, Colt 45 and Country Club are malt liquors, so swearing off of them still leaves a lot of wiggle room for beer in your oath!
If you are not living on the edge, you are taking up too much space!
"Could do better if he tried!" Report card comments from most of my grade school teachers. Sadly, still true!
