    None of the above. Stuff is chit. If I had constipation problems it wood be easier to take an exlax .
    Every time some bartender tries pushing that chit I tell them craft beers were invented to make city folk feel more "countrified". They can keep their metrosexual beers. If I want to taste pumpkin ,, I'll make a pie and slather home made ice cream all over it ,,,not beer.;)

    ^you do realize that macro beers only exist because they use cheaper ingredients so they can be cheaply mass produced and only have existed since the 20th century. For centuries before that, real men drank real beer. Often children drank a watered down and lower alcohol content beer, probably very similar to today's light beers, because water was often unsafe to drink so a lot of their hydration, as well as nutrition, came from beer.

    Oh, and those modern light beers were engineered to appeal to women. When women still didn't drink much beer, the marketing geniuses at Anheuser and Miller convinced guys that light beers had "great taste, less filling" so they could drink more beer than with budweiser, coors, and MGD.

    Interestingly, beer was made from the same water. It was safer to drink not because it was beer, but because it was boiled in the brewing process. Took a few centuries to discover that.

    JustWood based off your anger, you must drink Jack :p

    I simply don't dig the exotic spices in my brews. I do enjoy a nice dark beer, be it a home brew stout or a Boston Lager from up the road (and about 1000 miles west). I also still like Budweiser, call me crazy but I've drank more of those in my life than anything combined.

    Click play, you know you wanna....

    So I guess my Sweet Potato with vanilla wouldn't go to well with some of you guys... :D

    I don't drink a whole lot anymore.... But if I drink beer I want to enjoy and savor it. :cheers:

    I think my lager was sweeter last night.

    Oh no, that was just the Patriots winning again.
