One of the better light swiling style american lights. I brew beer,
and have for many years, have even taken classes, but I'm sure that
Harry knows much more about the subject than I.


----------------------------------


IMO, the best tasting American beer that came out of the microbrewery
crowd
is Samuel Adams Lager. Very similar to some of the good, German,
full-bodied beers. Even the "light" version isn't bad, although it has
more
calories than most other "regular" beers.


Yes, very good beer. I also like Sierra Nevada's Pale Ale (quite
hoppy), and their Summer Ale. I like a lot of different types, I brew
one hell of a Hefeweizen.



Second best American beer, although not originating from a microbrewery,
is
"Amberboch", an Anheuser-Busch product. Not available everywhere, the
draft version is much better than the bottled.


It's okay, and I totally agree that the draft version is pretty good!



Unfortunately, I finally hit the age where I can't drink either anymore.
Too heavy. An occasional Coors Light is about all I can handle now.

Ever try Amstel Light? Not great, but better than any american light
except maybe Sam Adam's light. Adams has a European ale that I don't
care for. Too malty.

-------------------------------------------

I am afraid that if I discovered a decent tasting light beer, I'd end up
missing the Sams too much, slide back to it and gain all the weight that I
lost back. *It's hard enough as it is. *Nope. *Gotta stay away from beer.
And food. *And snacks. *What a miserable way to live .....

I agree! Beer, in all actuality does nothing more to your weight than
eating the same amount of calories, but at a 150 or more a bottle, it
can add up quick!
