I don't like Bud Light. I have never liked Bud Light. It's been over twenty years since I've drunk a Bud Light.

However, I also believe there is a time and place to consume crappy American adjunct lager. Generally daytime outdoor activities.

I don't understand the culture of disparaging people for the beer they drink. I especially don't understand something along the line of a Coors Light drinker expressing existential superiority over a Bud Light drinker.

As to the craft drinkers, I see that as an entirely different market that should keep to itself. It's like Michelin star diners disparaging people who can only afford to occasionally eat at the local greasy spoon.

You don't understand dissing on others for stupid things?? But that's American tradition! Cannot have a man to look down on if there's nothing to be hyper-judgemental about.

Yup, light beers are great for college parties and outdoor drinking games. Cheap and you can drink literally all day without geting too drunk or bloated which is kind of the point of the product. Witbeers, lagers, etc are for when you actually want to get drunk off of a few beers and enjoy the taste. I think that anyone who genuinely compares the two have never actually been invited to a party where they serve alcohol or they just want to feel smugly superior about something and chose beer consumption of all things haha
