    Or, for some of you, what lager do you hate the least? Let's keep it to regular ol' Pale Lagers (non-imperial) generally in the 4-6% range.

    I don't drink lagers often, but when I do, I drink Stiegl Goldbrau.

    Stiegl Goldbrau is labled as Marzen/Oktoberfest. Seperate style from pale lager, no ?

    Thats a mislabel. It's most definitely not a marzen.

    funny you should ask... as the last beer i reviewed was otter creek's citra mantra, a perfect pale lager.

    i love a good light lager. recently i was wowed by pilsner urquell on tap at veselka in manhattan. i don't know about "it was better before" or what, but fresh and in steel rather than a green bottle, it's a beautiful beer.

    stoudts and southampton make my favorite lagers otherwise, i would say. berkshire czech pilsner is an awesome summer beer.

    I like Longboard Island Lager in the 16oz cans. Not a spectacular beer but very crisp and refreshing.

    Yeah but 16oz cans only, dont have any use for the regular bottles. Funny how theres no 12 pack of the 16oz cans they come in 10 packs. That kinda sucks.

    Was gonna say Pivo Pils...but ever since the Hill guy dropped some serious beer knowledge, I'm now gonna say Bud and Miller - cuz it's got that perfectly made imperfect thing going for it....

    Longboard is really the only one available to me if we are discounting all of the new IPLs. I like it very much in the summertime. Will certainly be packing a few ten packs when I head down to OBX in June. Anchor Cali is worth a mention too. Don't like Session Lager at all. Michelob is decent.

    Otter Creek Citra Mantra. Just released in the last month - already been drinking a dangerous amount of it.
