Any bud select 55 drinkers here?

I apologize in advance, but this race to the bottom is extremely weak. If you can only afford to add a 55 calorie beer to your dietary budget, maybe you shouldn't drink beer.

I often drink beers that are 200-300 calories per 12 oz, but they taste phenomenal. I refuse to drink low calorie beers because they taste like garbage.

The only "low cal" beer that I'll drink is Miller Lite, and the only reason I do is because I want to maintain a certain level of sobriety. IE, meeting up with friends who are drinking, while I feel obliged to join, I also need to remain sober due to having to drive, etc.

Alcohol = empty calories. If you don't want empty calories, don't drink alcohol.

I prefer beers that can't be mistaken for water. Meal-in-a-can, like guinness, or the local porter - really, anything dark.

If I'm thirsty, I drink water, not light beer. Water is much cheaper.

I don't think I'll ever understand diet beer, or diet soda, or sugar free / low calorie foods.

I feel the same way. IMHO light beer is the worst. I love a full flavored beer such as a dunkel.

Had some Michelob Ultra on tap the other day, wasn't bad for a see-thru light beer.

All this talk of beer and I'm completely out of Three Floyd's products. DRATS!

MGD 64 is way better in this class of brew. But I'll take a Yuengling over either of them.
