Ok, so i recently switched from Bud Light to Budweiser, but my only problem with Budweiser is that it kills me the next day. Can anyone suggest something that won't kill me tomorrow?

The thing's a meal in itself. A reasonable quantity won't have any effect the next morning, and abuse will be at best a mild laxative.

I'm sure it has NOTHING to do w/the recent ads( )but I've dumped beer for wine entirely.

No. I meant as in bud=goat piss. Get some real beer as in something with flavor, taste, substance. Guinness is pretty good, but it seems to me that most people never get drunk on it, just full. Try some local breweries beer. It's more expensive, but it tastes so much better, and your supporting local stuff instead of a major brand.

beer

Belgium beer - Chimay Blue, Delirium Nocturnum, or for something lighter - hoegaarden.

Do yourself a favor and don't drink a beer that has a tv commercial.

I assumed the question had to do with Frank Fontaine, who played a drunk on the Jackie Gleason show.

Try out Innis & Gunn. Good stuff.

+1 to a local microbrewery.

Bud falls in the category of "better than no beer at all". Bud light is a notch below that...."barely better than no beer at all". Nothing wrong with either one, just not exciting.

Sam Adams is a mainstream beer, but it has more flavor than Bud. it's certainly not a heavy beer at all.

If you want something with assertive flavor, go for an India Pale Ale. However, if Bud is your normal slosh, you may think it's a bit strong-flavored...hmmm....

Here's a thought - if you want some nice flavor without going too strong, hunt up a Fat Tire. Very tasty, not heavy, a nice beer all around.

Definitely try something local if you have it.

A nice cold nitrogenated Guiness on tap would be ideal for me on a hot day, but that's the only stout I'd ever drink during the summer.

During the summer, I like my beers to be medium to light (amber to straw) colored. I'd suggest amber, American/Belgian wheat, summer ales, or maybe a good American micro pale ale.
