You remember their names; Coors, Hamms, Bush, Shlitz, etc.. Make a great lager or pilsner and I'll be impressed. Any monkey can brew ale. The micro brew explosion after home brewing became legal in the 80's produced a lot of people who think they can brew.

I heard Bud is tasty straight from the factory, but I've never been and it always tastes watery and dull to me. At a baseball game, I can get heavily buzzed off one 808 or Denogginizer, but I need 3-4 Bud lights to do the same, and then I'm in the bathroom every other inning.
I'm not an IPA fan, but hops certainly have smell and flavor and can be interesting. I had an ale the other day that was very hoppy but not bitter. I thought that was interesting and I could have had more.
If I want something super easy to drink, I'll get a hefeweizen. Well, really, I'll get water. I drink beer for the flavor and alcohol.
What I really like are stouts, especially barrel-aged imperials. Shadow Puppet Liquid Midnight and New Holland's Dragon's Milk are recent favorites.
This isn't so much an argument as a wondering of why bother drinking American light lagers when they're so flavorless?
