Makes sense. Coors Light tastes like it’s a hundred years old. But then, so do most mass-produced American beers.

[Codeflier]

Good idea to keep hydrated with that seltzer water.

How old is his son?.....Mandelbaum! Mandelbaum!

[Larry Lucido]

Give him all he wants.

What a fun movie that was, I may have to watch it again.

That being said, this WWII Air Force Veteran

One slight correction. The Air Force didn't exist until 1947. It was the "Army Air Force" during WWII.

How many?

American may not deserve such men!

[lefty-lie-spy]

No kidding. I’ve even lost friends due to their insistence on ordering Coors Light for parties. Give me a Samuel Smith’s Oatmeal Stout or similar grog.

[FreedomPoster]

Good choice.

[Texas Eagle]

Sounds tasty. I’m a Stout and Porter man, myself. Deschutes Brewing Co. makes a coffee stout that is very enjoyable.

George Burns smoked cigars daily and lived to be 100.

Meanwhile, famed 1970s jogger Jimmy Fixx died of a massive heart attack and I believe he was in his mid-40s.

Is being too healthy actually dangerous?

[Ignatz]

Well, it’s not like he’s actually drinking beer.

[Secret Agent Man]

i think if anything, the thread proves everyone has their own taste when it comes to what makes up an acceptable beer.

Some people like stuff that tastes like you’re drinking a tree

Some people like a more bitter taste

Some people like more of a grain or malted hops taste

Some like a heavy, some like a lighter taste

Some like brands with more alcohol, some like less

[Maris Crane]

If it gives the guy a buzz...who cares what it tastes like?????

[Striperman]

Coors sets your hair afire and makes your kidneys scream- johnny paycheck

[lee martell]

‘tastes like you’re drinking a tree’.= Gin (Neat)
‘tastes like you’re drinking warm velvet’ = Bailey’s Irish Cream.

[Oscar in Batangas]

The post just before this was about Colgate toothpaste fighting off COVID. If the old vet puts a squirt of that in each daily beer, he might live forever!
