Took a couple nights off drinking....doing a few bourbon/cokes tonight. Hurt my damn back again this evening....twice in 2 weeks so it's more medicinal than recreational tonight.

Saw this ad for a store.....makes me want to switch to bud light haha. I could never do that though....my neighbor drinks it and I've ran out of delicious miller lite a few times and had to choke one of those down. Just can't do it.

I'm not going to drink that crap.

Has nothing to do with their advertising or politics....has to do with the fact that their 'beer' is crap

I thought it was alright, but I'd much prefer a Budweiser over the light.

When I called Bud Light crap, it wasn't really because of the 'Light'

I wonder if they changed something about it because I'm remembering that the last time I drank it I got sick.

This is criminal!

I've only tried 2 of the beers mentioned (Fosters and Old Speckled Hen) and can't say I was impressed by either. However, the article does mention that Newcastle might start doing the same and I do occasionally drink that one

I don't drink it often because I find their quality isn't consistent. I have had bottles of it that I really like and then there have been sometimes where it just doesn't taste right and I have wondered if it is due to them using clear bottles which allows light to affect the quality of the beer

Oh yeah, I forgot about the color of the bottle being important to beer. Do you know what the good color is supposed to be?
