    Genesee Cream Ale.

    I can get a 6 pack of this for what, 5 bucks? It's incredibly easy to drink, and quite flavorful all things considered.

    Since I moved to Baltimore a couple years ago it has been Natty Boh but before that it was definitely PBR.

    Sierra Nevada Summerfest. Even with some world class IPAs in the fridge, I'll crack open a few of those when I'm just hanging around. Was a favorite of mine before I took the "red pill" that was Ed Fitz

    I was in Kentucky and was surprised to see it.

    Coors Light! It goes down smooth at water....and if you drink enough of it........it will do the job if a buzz is what you're looking for.

    It's less about developing a taste for it than it is developing a habit. For what it's worth though. I take your stance towards MGD. Like beer flavored corn syrup water whereas Bud Light is beer flavored water with a slight bitterness!

    Narragansett if I want something relatively local. Otherwise a nice light-bodied Irish ale... Guinness included!

    Sam Adams because it is widely available, good but not outstanding, and have a versatile selection. It makes me realize that beer can still be good, even if it isn't a 5/5 or a crazy intense beer. Also, Miller Lite is the only light beer that I can enjoy if it's all that is around.

    when i saw this headline on BeerAdvocate's front page i thought of a different "blue pill". being only 23 THAT blue pill is not a part of my life BUT i do have a few select beers i enjoy before coitus.

    but you mean the Matrix blue pill?!

    so:
    -Natty Light
    -Genny Cream
    -Beck's
    -Stella
    -Heineken
    -Newcastle brown ale
    -Guinness draught
    -Sam Adams Boston Lager
    -Blue Moon
    -Hoegaarden

    before i dove through the rabbit hole i was very into European mainstream imports. now i realize i can get much better versions of those beer styles here in the US and from different breweries in Europe.

    Guinness. I've never liked AALs and I don't think I ever will. More power to those of you that do.
