What's your favorite macro?

Another vote for Miller High Life. I agree sometimes you don't want a hop bomb, MLH is about the only "macro" that I will buy regularly.

 

Bud Light, wicked cold. Like water with the essence of beer. Usually when I'm meeting up with a non craft friend at a non craft bar. Nothing wrong with putting a few back. As a matter of fact, I'll probably knock down a few tonight since I need to have a quick sit down with a guy at this dive in town.

 

Yuengling or Miller Hi-Life!

 

Usually ordered at a Mexican restaurant, Negra Modelo. Every time I get this beer I wonder why I don't drink it more often

 

Goose Island and Lagunitas

 

PBR, but only when I don't shave my neck beard...

 

Michelob (NOT LIGHT) Golden Draft and ... if one could consider it macro... Hamms Draft. That would be my "lawn mower beer"

 

Schaeffer--If nothing else it brings back fond memories of when I first got into beer.

 

Genesee Cream Ale.

If their Bock was available year-round, though, it'd readily and easily trump their Cream Ale for me.

 

You've got me thinking on that one. Potential thread?

 

I think a few people don't understand what macro means...oh well

For me, a cold Miller High Life, Coors Banquet, or Genesee Cream Ale fits the bill.

 

Within the context of the O.P.'s post methinks you're being too literal @jesskidden.

It's not helpful that both Anheuser-Busch/InBev and Miller Brewing (pre-MillerCoors) have used it in their advertising in the very same context which many 'better beer' drinkers use it, but Macro has indeed come to be construed as a colloquial term for adjunct lager.

Now, my math is off, but Miller Lite itself is close to 6 million barrels. So of the TRUE Macro brands, that's my favorite.

P.S. How many times have I referred to my favorite swill as John Carling's Finest, vice said Black Label?

 

Blue Ribbon

 

Bohemia Obscura (Vienna Lager) and Negra Modelo (Munich Dunkel Lager)

 

My preferred Adjunct Lagers:

Year round: Yuengling Lord Chesterfield Ale (and yes it is a lager despite the brand name).

Seasonal: Genny Bock

Cheers!

 

PBR is my go to adjunct. It was pretty much the only thing I would drink as a poor student in south GA. When I moved to the big city a year after graduating, the first thing I ordered was a PBR. The bartender said, in a slightly flirty way: "you must be some kind of a hipster huh?" To which I replied "what is a hipster?" She told me people drank PBR to "be cool." It was the first I ever heard that PBR was cool. We drank it because it 25 cents at a college bar. It's always been my go to cheap beer. "Cool" or not.

 

Yuengling Lager

 

Highlife…Ice cold!

 

Went to Montana to visit my family and all I drank was Miller Lite. It hit the spot on a hot summer day.

 

Coors Light. Will go for High Life if it is in bottles cause they look so nice! MGD if I'm at a White Sox game though!
