Miller lite. The aluminium pint screw tops are awesome for the beach or camping.

Another Vote for High Life but only in a bottle or draft. For some reason the cans dont have the same taste.

And Coors Lite when it gets insane ATL August Hot.

 

[marquee moon]

my least disliked would be ice cold bud in long neck bott

 

[Biff Tannen]

The most important thing is to have the locking YETI coozie to keep the beer cold.

Beer tastes better covered in fish slime.

When did Coors Banquet get stuck with the name Coors Banquet? It has always been Coors original or Coors gold until recently.

I don't think there is any cheap beer I won't drink. I actually dig Bud Light Lime, if I'm being honest.

In pop culture I'm guessing it started with the Sam Elliott narrated commercials

I've tried it a few times and I just couldn't do it

WHY COORS IS CALLED “THE BANQUET BEER”

...No doubt a back-breaking, life-threatening workday ended with some serious feasting. Miners were largely immigrants, so they probably ate food typical of their homeland, Sarah says. Miners from Cornwall, England, might’ve packed pasties, for instance.

And what’s a feast — or banquet — without beer?

So when Clear Creek miners sat down to banquets large and small, Coors was there.

“Since Golden was the ‘Gateway to Mining,’ word of the beer’s taste and quality spread quickly from mining camp to mining camp,” Russ writes in his book. “Distribution was aided by Golden’s location on the Colorado Central Railroad, just north across Clear Creek from the brewery. Off the railcar, wagonloads of beer were pulled by mules to thirsty miners in the foothills.”

Some of that beer was delivered by Mr. Coors himself.


After the mining boom ended — and after 17 long, dry years of Prohibition in Colorado — Coors started using the name “Banquet” to toast the miners who were some of our very first customers. In 1937 Coors officially became “The Banquet Beer” … which sounds even better when a familiar voice says it:

There's a bar a visit on occasion in the NC mountains that does $0.50 Rolling Rocks on Wed nights along with $10 all you can eat wings and half priced apps. The Rolling Rock is surprisingly tasty for $0.50 even in a 10oz. pour.

I'm not surprised it took this long, but I'm surprised it took this long.

Alternating BLL and Natty on the beach. Labatt Blue Light Lime at the lake. Genny Cream Ale at the tailgate.

Man, rolling rock is....just terrible

I keep High Life in the fridge most of the time.

I can't tell the difference between the light beers or really the normal coors heavy, bud heavy, etc. I'll get whatever is the cheapest, which is usually PBR or Kirkland Light if I have access to a Costco. Or sometimes the ones with lime can be nice for tubing, which is basically the only time I'd buy this kind of beer. I think once I found Keystone Light Lime, which was appropriately both liquid and cold.

 

[deacdiggler]

oh, I hadn't thought about Bud Light Lime - those are tasty on a hot day at the beach.

 

[WNCWFU]

Mich Ultra Amber is a great lawn mower beer.

 

[RedSoxFaithful]

wait, they make keystone light lime? wut
