Ice Cold quarts of LoneStar, 1966. It was good then.
Seems to me that there is some confusion around IPA. Grapefruit taste? I don’t know what your drinking but it aint IPA. IPA is India Pale Ale. It was developed in the later half of the 19th century for the British Army in India. Regular beer couldn’t make it to india in the hold of sialing ships and the heat involved. IPA was developed to fill the beer for a beer that could stand the journey. I would suggest that you try London Pride IPA. I don’t drink pisswater and haven’t drank a Budweiser since ‘64. London Pride IPA is a very good drink. I drink Bateman’s Dark Lord Porter and Guinness. I prefer a bitter over a mild. It might be like Scotch or oysters, a developed or acquired taste.

Lone Star was good until they got bought out by Strohs.

Then it tasted like Strohs.

I drank some Lone star in 1966-1968 in Mexico and it was good. As I remember, Lone Star produced a Mexican beer but I can’t remember the name.
