    While I agree that a disliked beer wouldn't be "crushable," in my opinion, crushable and favorite are two different things. Most people here will probably list their favorite instead of most crushable, and most people here value fullness and bold flavor in beers. As far as your second question, a light adjunct lager can be very different from their bigger brothers.

    Well if it comes in a can then it is certainly crushable. BA Ten Fidy is "crushable" by definition. I might even be able to crush a full keg if you give me the right tools for the job. However, if a beer is only available in bottles then I would advise against trying to crush it.

    (Yes, I'm being a smart ass. Yes, I fucking hate the term "crushable" to describe a beer:grinning:)



    If you're looking for refreshing, drinkable AALs then my top 3 is something like:

    1. Narragansett
    2. Schaefer
    3. Olympia Beer/Stag/Extra Gold/Carta Blanca (4 way tie...couldn't decide)
    Extra Gold all the way. First full beer I ever had!

    No love for Rolling Rock? This has to be one of the most "crushable" (sic) beers on the market, seeing that it's almost indistinguishable from the stuff that comes out of the kitchen faucet. Great on a hot day!

    Me too, but on a hot day after a rugby match, I'd say:

    High Life
    PBR
    Rolling Rock

    To me, these are lacking in much flavor, so they are just watery tasting. as opposed to the off-putting flavors I get from Miller Lite, Bud Light, etc.

    Out camping I can put away more coors light then I'd like to admit. Other then that it's the very occasional PBR and a Busch with my dad.

    Yes, according to Fresh Beer it is a BB date so what I have was canned early this year. Still, a good AAL.

    I'll go with...

    PBR
    Miller High Life
    Hamm's
    Coor's Banquet

    In no particular order. I used to visit Coor's more often but it is now impossible to find it at a bar or restaurant and the price point doesn't justify it over the other three options.

    Tonight I had a Hamm's back to back with a Heineken ( canned) and I much prefer the Heineken. Not even close. I know Heineken doesn't qualify here since it is all malt but at a price point similar to BMC it is heads and shoulders above the rest.

    Ummm, why are you all crushing beers? Do you own recycling plants?

    Personally my favourite thing to do with a beer is drink it, but IDK I'm just weird like that I guess... recently I've been getting right in to Weihenstephaner Pils, that's one damn good brew!
