I think you're lying

You know I'm not

I re-read the thread and saw where I did see some a few months back, and managed to get a couple sixers. But it didn't look or taste like I remembered. The bottles weren't those smooth shapely things they had 20 years ago, just a straight longneck. Haven't seen it again since then, I guess because nobody else was buying them.

Upstate they had Mich Light 30-packs (cans) at the Wal-Mart.

InBev has watered that shit down. My wife’s mother used to work on the line at AB and my dad used to work at AB.

Budweiser products have always tasted like sugar water to me. Watering them down may be an improvement.
If I'm going cheap, I'm going with champagne. Or Miller Lite.

I’m gonna go ahead and post this because the Rams just sign Aaron Donald and I’m gonna start drinking.

I knew you led the highlife. 20 years ago Budweiser was awesome.

But... Rolling Rock comes in a green bottle, and it's nowhere close to skunky

Rolling rock got bought by inbev and now it’s water down as well.

Skunkee like a monkee

Bud light is my session beer, nothing wrong with it for that purpose.

Rolling Rock was once not watered down? hmm

Tastes like salt. Lite > Bud Light - at least Miller Lite tastes like a beer.

This is serious shit here fellas.. Drank Budweiser most of my life. I know for a fact it's watered down compared to the old school German beer it was made to be years ago. InBev has watered it down I know for a fact.


Anyone know of a good brew that's comparable to old school Budweiser? I know the grain is rice.. Water, Barley Malt, Rice, Yeast, Hops.


Fuck InBev. Bastards don't even make old school Michelob anywhere and stick to Michelob ultra for the gays

WTF you mean by "watered down"?

Do you mean lower alcohol content than what is stated on the can?

The two I find the skunkiest are Yeungling and Heineken, both of which come in green bottles. Coincidence?

Not coincidence. Clear bottles are the worst because they don't filter any light; green bottles are bad because they don't filter much of it; brown is best (short of an opaque bottle) for bottles because it filters more; cans are better than bottles because they filter the vast majority of the light, particularly since they have improved/fixed the process of coating the insides of the AL cans.

I mean InBev is full of shit.

Doesn't really fit a Budweiser replacement, but this stuff is great. Been hard to find in the Seattle area the last few years because most places that carry Left-Hand Brewing now only have the Nitro Version (not a fan of Nitros, myself).

Agree with others not really understanding why people still drink macro-brews, other than while working outside/floating a river, etc... You can drink a lot more of them, but they taste terrible (or have no taste) and you won't need to drink that many of most good beers.

When you drink too much on Friday and need to get motivated to drink on Saturday

This just means you have not had one that has gone bad; I definitely had a few of those 15-16 years ago when I lived on the east coast and beer selection was generally shit (i.e. I resorted to RR because it was better than Bud/Miller...)

Why do people care if it's 4.9% instead of 5% ABV? If you like the taste, then great! If you just want to be drunk, then drink ethanol.

[Bayou Tiger]

I only drink two kinds of beer. The kind I buy and the kind everyone else buys.
