Miller Lite is good too, but I must admit, nothing beats the fresh, crisp, refreshing Silver Bullet.

Except Corona.

i hate coors light. havent yet found a beer i actually like, but coors light is at the bottom of the list so far.

HAHA! I like Coors when it comes to drinking to get drunk. I like Newcaste or Blue Moon when its just for drinking...

tylerc

16-06-2006 00:41:17

As a teenager, not only is price important, but taste.

Coors Light seems to be the best tasting, and I'll pay a couple extra bucks for that over a case of Miller Lite.

Kyks--maybe you should stop being a communist and start liking beer.

Budwiser > Bud Light > Coors > Keystone > Miller > Busch

Thats my order of the shit beers, i'd much rather have a rolling rock though shrug

Keystone is definatelly worse than Coors, even though it is the same beer, and I can't stand the aftertaste of miller (altho I havn't had it in about a year) I Love the taste of budwiser... I used to not like beer, but it has definatelly grown on me!

[b5df300e551]Best American Beer[/b5df300e551] Miller Lite

[b5df300e551]Best All-Time Beer[/b5df300e551] Viking

Viking is a premium golden lager beer brewed with the European pilsen method. The pure Icelandic water and a unique combination of malt, hobs, maize and sugar give the beer a distinct bitter taste.

Gold and Silver medals from the Monde Selection Institute in Bruxells testify to the unquestionable quality and Viking is the only Icelandic beer that has received such a prestigious international recognition.

Our brew master, Baldur Karason, takes pride in selecting the best barley and hobs and carefully oversees the brewing process from malting and fermentation to bottling.

Water is the single most important ingredient of beer and the Icelandic water is especially suitable for brewing lager beer due to its purity and "softness"

Viking is steadily building its market share and is the best selling beer in the state run monopoly shops followed by Thule, another product of the Viking brewery. The draught version of Viking is the most popular beer in pubs and restaurants.

Conclusion Icelandic beer, FTW.

if you want to drink water drink coors. I like rolling rock! although a lot of peepz don't like that beer. In high school all natty ice, in college all busch and keystone.

As far as American beer, I stick to Leinenkugels (they're mostly in the midwest) and Killian's (I believe it's produced in the states, but I guess it might be imported). I also enjoy Labatt and Guiness, which are imported.

Thanks, I suspected it was produced here, but I didn't want to say it unless I knew for sure. It's by far my favorite "national" beer.

KeithA

16-06-2006 07:35:32

Is this best American beer, or best American beer available in a convenience store?

Respect to the Rocky Mountains, but not even Coors (and certainly not Budweiser or Miller) deserve mention in a discussion of the best American beers. There are so many craft and microbreweries it's not even funny.

Just noticing that igneous said basically the same thing I'm saying.

That said, if I have to pick a piss-beer, of course I'm going with Coors. (Hometown pride.) But I try to avoid it when I can...

Back when I lived in Golden, Colorado I knew part of the Coors family. They are really nice people and they adopt kids a lot. They're really rich too.

Golden, Colorado has a big Coors brewery there and you could smell it miles away. )

[quotecb4c7bbf3c="tylerc"]Also, Mike's is 5% alcohol, I know beer is at least 20-30 proof.[/quotecb4c7bbf3c]

No. Wine is usually 11-13% alcohol by volume (22-26 proof). Beer is typically 3.2% - 6% alcohol by volume (6-12 proof). Some craft beers, usually stouts, approach 9%, but 5% isn't low for beer.

The guys from Beer Advocate (http//beeradvocate.com[]http//beeradvocate.com/) live in Boston, and most of their BeerFests take place here (http//beeradvocate.com/events/[]http//beeradvocate.com/events/). Plus, we've got a few relatively local breweries ourselves (Sam Adams and Harpoon, notably).

be glad you never had a jaeger bomb.
