Nope...I had my first drink of “Busch Bavarian” out of a baby bottle and I still drink Busch Light to this day. My Grandpa, who owned a tavern, gave it to me to keep me quiet and I got drunk for the first time at age 8. I never get a hangover from it, no matter how much I drink, all the other beers give me nasty side effects.

I seldom drink the national brands, Bud, Miller, Coors, etc. They lack flavor. I'll take Guinness every time. The occasional Sam Adams, Yeungling, or Porter's Oatmeal Stout will do if they're out of Guiness.

IMO, worst beer ever: Cave Creek Chili Beer. It should only be drunk before you have sauntered up to the grave of a family enemy or rotten liberal politician whose grave you wish to pee upon (particularly in Massachusetts).

one of the biggest scams ever foisted on the US was prohibition, and it still has a pretty big legacy today, because good beer now has a yuppie connotation, even when the product is lousy. To add insult to injury it is also expensive.

" Is it my maturing taste in beer, or, more importantly, is it my changing attitude towards these beers?"

Ricey beers give me a headache. So do beers loaded with preservatives. I avoid both kinds.

If that makes me a beer snob, so be it.

I’m still a Coors in a glass bottle fan. If it’s hot, that’s a refreshing beer.

I've tried to like microbrews (or "crafted beers"), but usually don't care for them. the qualities that American light beers get slammed for having (thin, fizzy, and sweet) are the qualities that I like.

My favorite beer is Miller Lite in a can. I even used to enjoy drinking Milwaukee's Best Light and Schaefer Light, but they give me bad headaches these days.

It’s like the late Justin Wilson used to say about wine: “What is the best wine? The kind you like.” There are objectively good and bad beers out there, but it really all comes down to what you like. I’ll drink the American megabrewery stuff — it’s definitely an Old Style at the ballgame, and my “everyday beer” at home is Miller High Life — it’s cheap and pretty good if served very cold; it goes well with certain foods and it refreshes during outdoor chores. But I’ll also go for the high-end brews and have even made of few batches of my own. Recently I was out of town on business for a couple of weeks and decided to do a “beers of the world” tour — having a different one every night at dinner — so among the ones I tried for the first time were some European imports and one from a microbrewery in New Jersey. There is so much variety and so much to enjoy among the various beers that it’s never made any sense to me to restrict myself to one kind.

Hmmmmm. Beer.

I’m a fan of Fat Tire out of Ft. Collins Colorado.

That or this fruity beer at this pub just up the road. But hey... if you’re buying, I’ll try it.
