    My parents always get Coors or Bud Light and I've never turned one down. I did apparently lose my mind a little bit a couple years ago and buy a sixer of CL's and was completely disappointed by it, as I had this vision in my head that it would be all cool and light and refreshing, but it wasn't satisfying at all.

    I think there's a time and a place for every beer and it's hard to justify going out and buying triple Belgian for a cookout with some friends. I drink the Miller Lite or Coors Light usually in big gatherings. I think a lot of people think they're above it but IMO they're completely different types of beer almost in a class by themselves. When I'm at a football game with my dad and brother or something I usually have no problem having a bottle of macro.

    I drink them when I'm forced to. I asked if my local club had any Sam Adams, the response was "We don't have that here!". Okay, never mind, Bud time...

    Honestly I'd rather drink a nice sweet tea. 5 years ago I would of made fun of myself for that comment but its just how I feel now.

    I'll drink a macro (Narragansett or Pabst in my environs) if a friend hands me one or if I'm seeing a band and I'm likely to undergo considerable jostling (heh).

    I also picked up a sixer of Narragansett Bohemian Pilsner today, which I've never tried, just for kicks. I also picked up some other stuff in case the kicks don't come. Beer!

    Rarely now. If I'm round at a friends house who only has that I'll have something else, either wine or spirits or soft drinks. If it's at a pub with nothing else then it's a Tennents or Guinness I suppose. I'm too tight to pay over the odds for shite beer at an event.

    Cue the there are some people who just don't like the taste of AAL but must jump on every thread that mentions macro beer as if it gives them some beer cred crowd.

    Never and it's not because I don't like AAL's nor is it because I "think I'm above it."

    If I am going to buy an AAL, I'd rather my money go to someone like Narragansett.

    Now I'm not saying that I think AAL's are good. I kinda compare them to soda. It's something cold to drink like a Coke or Pepsi.

    At the shithole local dive bars my wife and her friends frequent.Nothing like getting price gouged on low grade piss.I die a little every time I'm subjected to this.I'm not above drinking a High Life now and then but getting bent over for a severely outdated can of Busch is disheartening.

    Gansetts and Yuengling arent bad. Unless I'm already drunk, and I mean drunk, I wont drink any BMC.

    Depends on whether or not you include Yuengling in the question.
    As for literal BMC, I'll have one in the uncommon event I'm at a social gathering where I didn't bring beer (e.g. a work party, though those often have SNPA or at least Yuengling). At parties with friends I either bring SN/DFH or whatever other ~$8.99/6 beer I can find or homebrew.
    I tried to recall a time I've ever actually purchased a BMC for myself, and I'm not sure that I have. I bought some Natty Boh once to share with inflict upon my non-Baltimorean friends, that's it.

    I will drink a Pepsi instead. Just the way I am.

    I personally think that Yuengling is a great beer to get my exclusive BMC drinking friends that aren't going to drink a double IPA to try something different. Samuel Adams is another really good well known beer style that turned me onto craft beer. I always pick up their different seasonals and brewmasters collections in sixes or twelves

    Not really. I like nice straightforward beers, but there are too many that taste good and are cheap to bother with Bud Light or Mille Lite.
