" No doubt the English have good beer, but when you've been in the hot Texas sun all day where its 90 to 105 degrees, cold beer like Coors Light or Bud Light are what the doctor ordered NOT a Boddingtons. "
Of course a lager hits the spot on certain occasions , but Bud / Coors LIGHT ain't the way to go . Try a Kirin Lager or Labatts or ...
light beer ain't beer. Try a real Bud or even MGD.
Lite beer is the devil's work, surely. That being said, I'm one of the few real beerheads that truly appreciates an American Lager. Budweiser is truly a 5 star beer. When you judge a beer, you judge it against others of its type, in this case other American Lagers, and Bud by far the best of breed. Those that don't like it, don't like the genre. If you don't like the genre, you have no business judging the beer.
