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.

Years ago I had the licence for a college bar, we had 145 different
types of cans of beer and kept 5 beers on tap. Amstel light is great
in a bottle, not so good on tap. Moosehead is incredible on tap if you
ever get the opportunity, but bottled, is like ****. Bass Ale bottles
are one of my favorite retail Ale, but I hate it on tap. Many beers
seem to be like that. If I get in a spoil me mood I get a few bottles
of Samual Smiths Olde Brewery Ale.. It is my very favorite and always
makes a great hit at the brew club I am in...
