Bud Light is my favorite beer. Only beer snobs stick their nose up at Bud Light because they lead boring lives and have nothing better to do than pretend they are cool because they only drink beers no one has heard of nor cares about.

With that said, I will try it.

When it comes to binge-drinking, I'll stick with Busch Light. It's cheaper and when it comes to watery domestics, it's more a matter of if you can stand the taste. That I can with that.

With the version of Bud Light in the pic being 6%, I could see me trying it if the price was right, but I can get great buzzes off easily available stuff like Sam Adams, Great Lakes, Magic Hat and even Dundee. All of which kill Bud/Bud Light in the taste category and Dundee is cheaper (it's basically generic good beer...like if a store like Family Dollar or Dollar General made their own version of Sam...cheaper, lower quality, but still gives a killer buzz).

So fuck Bud.

Not only is Bud Light a terrible beer, but AB/InBev is a pretty evil corporation, like most corporations that get that big are.

Its beer for people who don't like beer. Sure....its genius marketing but that doesn't make it a good beer. I could just picture that board meeting in the early 80's:

"OK guys, we need to grow.....reach an untapped market. I was thinking: how about people that don't like beer? What we'll do is water it down to the point that people who don't like beer will tolerate it so that they can pretend with their friends that they are beer drinkers!"

Bud Select, Michelob Ultra, Bud Light Lime, Bud Light Wheat, etc etc were all just extensions of the same strategy: keep watering it down and/or adding flavor until we reach a new market segment. Coming soon: Bud Light Water, Bud Light Chocolate Milk, Bud Light Wine.....

Here's how you can tell a good beer from shit beer: drink it at room temperature. Bullshit beers like Bud Light add chemicals and things that make the beer have less flavor at colder temperature. The result is, a beer that goes down smooth when cold but taste like skunk piss when warm due to those chemicals no longer affecting it. Beers that are brewed simply on flavor alone do not suffer this fate. Taste them at room temperature and they largely taste the same. Some might taste slightly better (but most are still better cold).

End of beer snob rant.

So you think McDonald's has good hamburgers since they are the #1 selling hamburgers in the world? I would disagree strongly with your thesis.

I drink to get drunk, so Bud Light works for me. The BL Platinum is 6% alc/vol, so it'll get ya there a little faster.

This makes no sense. You drink to get drunk so you drink a beer with a very low alcohol content? Try a 4-pack of Dogfish Head 90-Minute IPA at 9% ABV. Or try the Bell's seasonal Hopslam that's out right now: 10% ABV.

Yes I see reading comprehension still eludes you. My point was to say shitty beer tastes completely different warm than it does cold. Good beer does not taste different warm. It tastes like the same beer, but warm. Warm milk is gross, but at least it tastes like cold milk, except warm. Bud Light makes a magic transformation from smooth watery "beer" to awful skunky pisswater when warm.
