DAMN straight Kev. I can remember many a night with a 6pack of them nice fat green bottles. I wish I was still that young. 4 Haffenreffers and chase it with a 5th of Southern Comfort. I thought my name was RALPH a few times after that just stone drunk

The matz beer balls were the best. We always got a few of them for the dorm at Wentworth. Man did we have some wild times. We'd go hunting down all the Simmons chicks

Your buzz never seemed to go away when you were drinking those...stayed with you for hours.

Bad choice if your planning on sneaking past the parents that night.....Got me nailed in high school

Molson, Heiniken, Becks, Grolsh = crap, watery beer to me, no better than bud

Bass is good, but there are a hell of alot of better options out there

Its all personal taste.

In the end, if I'm trying to market Bud Light, drinkability is probably the best thing i can come up with. They know that noone is looking forward to that pint of BL at the end of the day - BL's target market is looking forward to that 6 or 12 pack of BL at the end of the day.

Light beers in general are kind of a scam to begin with (and fighting over who has the lowest carbs is even more of a joke - alcohol has a worse effect on weight gain than a few carbs). Drink alot of beer (light or heavy) and your going to end up fat and unhealthy - I know that from experience. Have a beer here and there, weather heavy or light, and its actually good for you.

You're absolutely right as far as personal preference being the deciding factor but IMHO the last word I would use to discribe Molson, Heiniken, Becks or Grolsh would be watery

Catch'em up,

I love the beer and yard work stuff. Looking forward to that part of being a home owner.

I think my yard work beers are going to be Harpoon IPA and Sam Adams.

What are you supposed to drink when you shovel? I'm thinking Guiness.

when you shovel snow you switch over to hot coffee with Emmet's or Bayley's Irish creme in it....

A nice little 1/2 pint of schnaaps tucked away in the jacket is always nice.

Hot Chocolate with kahlua or baileys (or both) works or Hot Apple Cider with Cap'n Morgan will warm you up

when your done and back in the house Guinness or a nice Porter
