I wish there were craft sodas so that everyone would call Coke and Pepsi horse piss.

Horse piss has body and flavor and useful ammonia and phosphorus content. Do not denigrate it by comparing it to fucking Bud Light.
Here's my take: let people like what they like. Yeah, I don't like Budweiser. So what? I know a lot of people that hate extra peaty malt, and while I disagree, they're allowed to just not like Scottish malt whiskey.
Laphroaig for the win... Was in Oban a few weeks back for a holiday and got a bottle of Kilchomain from the shop across the road from the distillery (no way was I paying the distillery prices - £75 for a 10 year?). Really enjoying it, quite liking the salty overtones.
I think that Oban had a soapy taste for me that I didn't like. Laphroaig used to be my go-to, since I'm poor, but it's gotten steadily more expensive for even the cheapest interations. Now I mostly drink Costco's Kirkland blended, or bourbon. :/
Hey, you've found what's good for you :) I did sample the Oban and it was nice, but not at the price they were hawking it at. My current overall favourite is probably a tossup between the Laphroaig Cairdeas I got in 2017 (I think? I'm a bit fuzzy) and a 12-year non-chill-filtered Aberlour... which are such different taste profiles as to be practically incomparable :D Everyone has different tastes, so... going back to the thread starter, let's celebrate different tastes.
I feel a small doubt now that people think I may be protesting when I buy miller lite here in the home of bud light (St. Louis) but Ive always hated bud lite and yes the brewery smells like shit.
I don't like Bud Light. I have never liked Bud Light. It's been over twenty years since I've drunk a Bud Light.
However, I also believe there is a time and place to consume crappy American adjunct lager. Generally daytime outdoor activities.
I don't understand the culture of disparaging people for the beer they drink. I especially don't understand something along the line of a Coors Light drinker expressing existential superiority over a Bud Light drinker.
As to the craft drinkers, I see that as an entirely different market that should keep to itself. It's like Michelin star diners disparaging people who can only afford to occasionally eat at the local greasy spoon.
Yup, light beers are great for college parties and outdoor drinking games. Cheap and you can drink literally all day without geting too drunk or bloated which is kind of the point of the product. Witbeers, lagers, etc are for when you actually want to get drunk off of a few beers and enjoy the taste. I think that anyone who genuinely compares the two have never actually been invited to a party where they serve alcohol or they just want to feel smugly superior about something and chose beer consumption of all things haha
Tbh I'm still in shock that the usually well informed online queer space made bud light a trans icon. Anheuser-Busch donates to Republican candidates that are introducing bigotted bills against trans people
As far as I can tell, this is what happened:
Anheuser-Busch send one (1) bespoke label Bud Light to a trans influencer.
Fascists proceed to flip out as if that one beer was a declaration of war against transphobia.
Some people figure (quite wrongly) that the enemy of their enemy is their friend and embrace the GOP-supporting piss-water.
Mainly because Coors was heavily, directly anti gay rights for decades. Bud got the green light by being the less obvious evil, and then it became the default.
You know what horse piss tastes like?
Clearly he doesn't, because horse piss is actually way better than Bud Light. I mean, it actually has flavor at the very least.
I guarantee horse piss has more flavor than Bud Light.
What is going on with the bus light brewery?
I've worked at breweries. They should smell awesome.
Bud light always makes me think of having sex in a canoe.
Both are fucking close to water.
I can afford Bud if I want it, but you can't put a price on a lifetime ban from the ranch
Have a buddy that will buy 24 packs of that hot garbage for parties or get togethers. Either that or Keystone light. Not really sure why I'm friends with him...
