i was surprised with how much flavor is in these cheap little cans.

But whatever beer I drink, it is NEVER light beer if I can possibly avoid it. I don't like colored water....and I won't buy it. My motto: life is too short for lite beer.

I love having a wife that can sit down and have a beer or 10 with me.

A wife with 10 beers in her DEFINITELY can have some advantages!
When I was in college, the cheap beer of choice was Schaffers. It was often on sale for .99 cents a six pack. Yep, that's $3.96 a case.   |

i never drink light beer. beer is my diet beverage
ive done the research beer is healthier for you than soda, even diet soda.
of course large amounts of alcohol is ultimately bad.

| | | | You wouldn't play on a cheap bass...why would any of you wish to drink cheap beer! Life is too short to drink cheap beer. For every six pack of cheap beer you drink you only need two bottles of good stuff to be satisfied, and if it's the buzz you're after it's just as fast. |

You're really not saving any money 'cause you have to drink 2 to 3 times as much to be satisfied. I'd be curious to know if those who purchase 24 or 30 packs of cheapo stuff only drink one at a time once or twice a day. The guys I know who do it don't. |

That or steel reserve...
I generally drink good beer (stouts and porters) though

I personally cannot stand the damn stuff.
Cheap beer wise, it's all about the Natty Lite here at college.
