My favorite is Bud Light Platinum. ABV 6% IBU 12 calories 135

It has a bold taste with a smooth, slightly sweet finish. It is at its best ice cold.

When I worked in Venezuela I always thought that if I could be a distributor for Polar in the US I could corner the market and make millions. I don't even like beer but an ice cold Polar was even better than sliced bread after a day in the swamps west of Trinidad. The smallest settlement, even on a clunky generator that only ran for a few hours in the evening, would have a cantina with ice cold Polar.

Those were great days and good work with some good men. One of the tings that made it best is nobody else wanted the job! Some of the very best of my times.

Growing up outside Philly, Dad always had a case of Schmidts in bottles, procured from the local “beer distributor”. That was in the days when the only place you could buy beer was a tavern (2 six pack limit), or a distributor.

We used to go to the Jersey shore, and Ocean City was a dry town. But across the bay was Somers Point, and a very popular dive bar called The Anchorage. In the day, it was 7 beers for a dollar, served all at once in tall glasses that held about 8 oz. each. It was an art form to carry them all at once away from the bar. I think it was Piels Real Draft ~ horrible stuff, even when fresh and on tap.

Now I am partial to stouts and porters in the cooler months, or a crisp Pilsner in the summer. Current favorite is Captain Jack, from the (local) Olde Mecklenburg Brewery.
