I like Blue Moon. I'm drinking a Blue Harvest pumpkin ale right now.

I also like Bud Light, Yuengling, and most malt liquor that I've tried.

This is in addition to a pretty keen taste for finer wines and high end beers.

I'm just not a "beer snob", the new breed of asshole that doesn't realize cheap anything has its place.

New breed of snob? You realize you are talking to people from Europe right? lol I don't think that term applies to us, maybe to people in the US, but even then, the US has some amazing microbreweries with really good beer.

Cheap beer that's good? Hmm, 24 of Corona is pretty cheap...

The europeans I know aren't nearly as bad as american beer snobs. It's like a fucking inferiority complex or something.

Hell, most of my family's european. We love to uncork a good bottle of wine as much as we like the cheaper stuff we put on the table every day. I won't even get into some of the abominations created in the name of "home made wine" by my extended family, but we like that too, even if it smells a little bit off. Same goes for beer.

What's beer snobbery get you? A shiny fucking medal? Remember, with food, drink, in life, it's about the company there to enjoy it with you, not the name on the label. Dig deep down and you probably have some good memories of when you got hammered with good friends and a case of Coors Light.

Maybe that's just my perspective, though.

Dunno, if you are drinking Bud Light for the taste alone, I think you are asking to be ridiculed. 😉

If the discussion is just about something to get drunk off of as cheaply as possibly, then there's really only a few beers that I would consider untouchable.

LOL, i disagree but well executed

It's something about the carbonation....I don't like it.

I like wine...but I don't like champagne....same thing.

Try my beer list, then make that statement.

If you still make that statement after trying my beers, you officially have no taste at all and are classified as a zebra mussle that eats and processes dirt.
 
Beer snob alert. Hacker Pschorr tastes better but it's also more expensive. Blue Moon is pretty good, especially since you can get it at most places, which isn't so w/ Hacker Pschorr or Hoegarden
 
I'm past the point in my life where I drink beer to get blasted. I drink it for the taste mainly, and that's why I don't drink crappy beer. I'd rather have a Pepsi than "Milwaukee's Beast" if I'm buying.

My only point is that just because a beer isn't as good as some premium beer doesn't mean it's terrible. You're clearly over dramatizing Blue Moon's inferior taste to Hacker/Hoegaardena and it's making you sound like a stuck up douchebag

How's that submarine with the screen door working out for you?

So how long have you lived in Canada? Unless it the minority of your life I don't think you can call yourself European.

Im 24 and Ive been here 12 years. Ive also been back to Europe every summer but 1. I still have a very european mentality which is probably the reason I don't mix well socially with people from here, but whenever it's someone from Europe (or another part of the world for that matter), it's a totally different ballgame.

Why would I say Im european and then have to prove it? Is there something I am missing here? Is there a trend among people that say they are european just to be "cool" or something?

 
Yes. All the kids these days are running around with their hair slicked back, wearing rolled up jeans, listening to Zingelbert Bembledack! Yingybert Dambleban! Zangelbert Bingledack! Wingelbert Humptyback! Slut Bunwalla!Zingelbert Bembledack, Tringelbert Wangledack, Slut Bunwalla, Klingybun Fistelvase, Dindlebert Zindledack, Gerry Dorsey, Engelbert Humptyback, Zengelbert Bingledack, Engelbert Humperdinck, Vingelbert Wingledanck?No, no, go back one. Go back one. "Engelbert Humperdinck" that's it, and pretending to be European.
