Definitely not... I only drink domestic... High Life, Bud, etc (not light beers)

Will only drink the other stuff, if that is the only thing available and some of it is so bad, I'll pass...

Green bottle beer is a no no, too...

Yes, yes I am. If beer snob means turning my nose up at the crap that BMC calls beer, then I'm absolutely a beer snob. I'm also a burger snob, since I don't eat McDonalds and Burger King. And a pizza snob, since I don't eat CiCi's and Gatti's.

So, I'm an equal opportunity snob. Or it means I don't like sub-standard stuff.


Amen

I drink bud lite. Tastes good to me, is light and refreshing. And it shouldn't bother anyone else. Nosy arse people.

Only thing more aggravating than a beer snob is a steak snob.

Not according to that article.. When I see someone wearing loafers I want to vomit all over the loafers.

But I will sniff a beer in public...

So, you dip your well done steak in ketchup and wash it down with Bud Light?

No I don't but I don't care if someone does. There's always got to be that guy with the obligatory comment about ruining a good steak by overlooking or ketchup or BBQ sauce...or the snarky comment about drinking "real" beer. Lame.

What is worse infighting?

Malt vs hops or bud vs miller vs coors

Malt>>>hops

Hey, nobody said Bud Light wasn't real beer. It just isn't good beer.

Serious question. I have a friend that home brews. He said it was harder for BMC to make their product vs the smaller craft brewers. Is it because of all the sterilization that has to take place? That's kinda what I think he was getting at. Just wondering

Second was an obvious joking dig at hopheads, but balance or tilt towards malt is me preference

I don't see desire in a biting, leaning toward bitter, beer that hop heavier beers provide

Tougher to keep such a consistent product over such huge brewing volumes

The water science and need to have ingredients of such similar quality poses many challenges

Also, i believe lagers are "harder" to brew than ales.

Also the fact that they are striving for zero taste, it is hard to make a beer without any off tastes. You can hide those off tastes in hoppier and maltier beers.

Not a homebrewer....yet

Also never met a BMC that has any interest in homebrewing
