    Would love that and also like to see the other label . The one with Hamm’s written in cursive , i like it better than the throwback label they bought back and started a couple of years ago.

    Yeah, if Busch Light can pop up near everywhere near me on draught, why can't Hamm's??

    I'm really surprised to hear this. I don't get the impression Hamms is a particularly big seller out here, but I know a couple of craft oriented taphouses that routinely carry it as their designated cheap macro beer (one place in town carried a brief description of the beers they carried. For Hamms the description was "cheap, cold.").

    One beer bar owner had a great explanation (I thought) for why he carried either Hamms or Oly on tap as their only macro. He felt that there was very little difference quality/flavor wise when it comes to macros, so why not carry the cheapest available and pass the savings on to his customers. Makes sense to me.

    Makes sense to me as well.
    The BIG gripe I have with Busch Light is at the Old Chicago. It replaced the Sierra Nevada Pale Ale tap that was there for as long as I can remember.

    That is a horrifying replacement.

    Are there really more customers there that would prefer to drink BL rather than SNPA? That's really hard for me to wrap my head around.

    Probably not, especially in a place with a bunch of draft craft beers. But Bud Light might be the only light beer on the menu -- picking up those fans of Coors light and Miller light. Poor SNPA had to compete with probably five or six new IPAs with fancy names that turned the heads of their old customers.

    Fancy named beers that Snappy likely crushes like a grape.
