I'm a fan of Sam Adams. If in a commercial establishment that doesn't
have draught beer that I like, I'd order a bottle of Sam Adams any
day.

However, there are regional craft brewers that kick Sam Adam's ass all
over the map. We have 10 of them in the Northwest and I'm sure
there's plenty in your neck of the woods too.

I don't like Sam Adams, but I know plenty who do.
It's all personal taste.
But I only turn my nose up at "lite" beer.
I just don't get that. Won't touch it.

Oh, and Michelob. Won't touch that either.

Agreed. There was a brilliant commercial a few years back that
featured people tasting rain and thinking it was raining beer.

Little difference from water.


Try Michelob Amber Boch if you can find it. Not bad for an American
beer.

We agree about Sam Adams, but M A B is nothing more than dark water.

Very little flavor.

There's a big difference between the bottled version and draft. We used to
keep it on tap in a kegerlator in Florida because it was the most popular
beer in the neighborhood we lived in. Not quite as heavy as Sam Adams, not
as good, but not bad.

One of my favorites while stationed in Germany was a Czeck beer called
'Pilsner Urquell'. If you've never done so, give it a shot. Our
Safaway carries them so I guess it's fairly common over here now. It
may not be much of a beer anymore either.
