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.

Eisboch


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 .....

When I drink a beer, I drink a Mexican beer. I just like the taste of
the Mexican brews. I also like Peroni and once in a while, a Heineken.

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!

Ah, Coors! And Coors Light, at that. Now we can get back to boats:

You know why drinkin' Coors is like making love in a canoe, don't you?

What does your site say about Pilsner Urquell, which was my favorite mass
produced beer while in Europe.

Hilarious! Harry's been putting down anyones choice of beer for any number
of taste reasons. And then comes this line"

"Taste is subjective..."

That's only true if it's someone *else's* taste! Harry's taste is objective
and applicable to all things.

Heineken always gave me heartburn. Corona is not bad, but it's not great.
I used to try different local beers in Puerto Rico, but never developed a
taste for them. Same in Italy.

Samuel Adams has just the right body, full flavor with a very, very faint
sweet after-taste.

I have to stop thinking about this.
