Wow, tough room. Fat Tire, Sierra Nevada, Heineken. Really? All terrific beers. There are better no doubt, but those are all solid, good drinking brews.

Back to the original topic: Bud Light and PBR. They're cold and contain alcohol. I'll take them where there's nothing else but, apart from that, they're swill.

Flaming 40's are way overrated.

Here's 36 more. I've always had a soft spot for Olympia since it was the first one I ever drank.

zBrown, great find.

so if Bud Light Lime were any good at all, it would be a little leap forward. But alas, the alleged lime flavoring in no way resembles people food. Bud Light Lime tastes like green Froot Loops soaked in thigh sweat.

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. Keystone is worse than Heineken and murder.

26. Bud Light. Tastes like printer paper and often gives the impression of unfreshness, which is alarming given the high turnover. There's a very good chance you and Bud Light will join forces at some point over the holiday weekend, and that's all well and good, but please don't take it into the bathroom with you. I used to clean bar bathrooms, and an overwhelming majority of the bottles left in the john at the end of the night were Bud Light. Bud Light dudes are afraid of leaving their beer unattended, as if they have reason to worry about the fate of unattended beers. I suppose there's something apt about these beers ending the night on top of a urinal. It's like a little story about the nitrogen cycle.

5. Pabst Blue Ribbon. It took me a few years to come around on PBR, probably because I was the sort of dipshit who worried about what message my beer was sending. Now that I'm liberated from such petty concerns, I can tell the world, "Hey, look at me spend $14 to get all-day drunk on clean, nondescript beer that tastes like Budweiser is supposed to."

Not sure why The Big is there but, Ava Gabor isn't.

Or for that matter, Bridgee Bardee


Unranked as of today. Probably the first and only beer I have not been able to swallow.
