“Domestic” Beer: An Independence Day Guide
By Some very entertaining descriptions here:
Keystone separates itself from the rest of the crap pack by augmenting the typical stale/sour flavor profile with notes of brown bananas and green armpits.
Bud Light Lime tastes like green Froot Loops soaked in thigh sweat.
26. Bud Light. Tastes like printer paper and often gives the impression of unfreshness, which is alarming given the high turnover.
25. Yuengling. Why are people so into Yuengling? It’s quite popular among the Pennsylvania ex-pat community, which is odd given that the beer sucks and Pennsylvanians don’t strike me as an excessively prideful or self-important lot.
Since I only drink any of these beers under severely constrained circumstances, I can’t really comment on most of the relative judgments. What knowledge I have gleaned from sports venues, conferences, and weddings in the Adirondacks would suggest that where I know something the judgments are reliable (Utica Club is almost acceptable; often passed of as “premium,” Yuengling, Corona and especially Heineken are worse-than-Bud horrible; in a “sobriety is not an option” game Miller Lite is better than Bud Lite.)
