Edited on Sat Jun-11-05 07:09 PM by JVS
I hope not to open up a huge controversy here.

4. I LOVE cheap lite beer
I am no beer snob. I like cheap, yellow, watery beer that I can pound. If I want to drink something tasty, I'll have a Long Island iced tea or some shit. If I want to knock back beers all night, I'll drink Miller Lite

5. If I'm gonna drink Miller, which I do,
it's regular or MGD. Which btw is quenching my thirst as we speak.

18. Same here. I'll drink high life over the others.
Edited on Sun Jun-12-05 12:04 PM by JVS
It's cheaper than MGD and Lite, and I like it best of the three. Of course MGD is on sale at Meijer's for $6.98/ 12 pack, so I might do some MGD soon. I generally don't drink the Lite, but then again what son gravitates to the beer of his father (big time Lite fan), is it not natural to rebel and drink something different?

16. I'm inspired to see such proletarian beer class consciousness in this...

thread.

There have been times when the beer snobs would have us cower in terror.

Those days are over!

Well maybe not that extreme but Miller Lite is horrible stuff.

12. It's better than Bud Lite I suppose
That's not saying much though. I can't drink that watery beer anymore.

Gimme a good stout or a good local brew (I live in MI and we have some good ones)!

22. Life is too short NOT to pay for really good beer, because you can't
take your money with you.

Lite beer is not beer, it is just very bad water.

Well, the poor should at least drinking full beer, not "lite" whatever ..
Have your Old Milwaukee, but don't go lite.

ALL LITE BEERS ARE LESS BEER!

I used to drink Miller Genuine Draft. Not bad for a wimpy American lager.

but lite beer ..... EEEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!

Right now I sip on a Saranac Black and Tan.

signed, Fucking Bourgeois Shithead.

29. Agreed
as I said in another post, this thread started as a copycat of a "Do you think life is fulfilling" poll, so I by no means wish to endorse light beer as regular or ice varieties tend toward better strength

20. You gotta drink whatever you can!
Because life is too short to be sober.

If you can get your hands on the good stuff, drink up.

If you can only get the cheap stuff, drink up.

But above all things, drink up!

24. Micro brews cost the same $$$ as Budweiser, Miller and Coors
They have to be close to where you're from though.

27. Yeah, actually I find the big 3 to be overpriced, so I rarely buy them
I often boy Leinenkugel's, Huber and then the dirt cheap macros like schlitz or Old German when I am low on funds. This thread started as a copycat of a "is life fulfilling" poll, so I'm really not endorseing Miller beyond saying that if I can get a good deal on it, I'll drink it

31. No. I drink to enjoy the drink, and I don't drink to excess.
Even my coffee has to be decaf. *sigh*

Twenty years ago, I pulled all-night writing sessions by subsisting on strong black coffee and cigarettes.

21. When it's really, really hot....
And the Miller (any flavor) is really, really cold--in ice & water, that is--I'm glad to have it.

In a pub--with 20 beers on tap & 50 in bottles--I'll be more picky.

25. It has no taste.
Might as well drink some water.

I like my beers with some bite. I like good hoppy beers.
