That is regarded as a girly drink around here. You might as well drink a wine cooler.

Coors Light FTW! (And, at local bars here, they serve it in pretty damned large bottles.)

As if Mich Ultra and Coors Light were in different worlds.

I usually drink Mich Ultra. Tonight I picked up a 6 pack of Bud Light they had on sale under $5...I haven't seen it that low in a while, may have been a misprice

Been studying for CCNA needed to clear my head of some data :)

yep.

does Yeungling make a light beer?

I'd prolly drink that if I found it.

Sam Adams Light is pretty good for alight beer.

Yea they make two. Yuengling Light Lager and Yuengling Light

I've heard Heineken Light is actually very good.

If I had to choose, it'd be Coors Light though.

get your taste buds checked.

There?s around 300 calories in a pint of beer, iirc, and not much less in a light variant.

1 12oz bud light = 110 cal


after 10 of them, that's a pretty substantial difference lol

Unless he's barely eating throughout the day, he's still not going to lose much weight. All that light beer will do will cause him to gain weight at a slower pace.

What's A Good Light Beer?

I dunno. What's better, warm dog poop or cold dog poop?

I'm gonna' go with NO dog poop and NO light beer.

But, no judgement. You get to slide down your throat whatever you want. Just don't kiss anyone you care 'bout, k?

;)

This is what I've been doing. Drinking a nice mixed drink tastes just as good, with much fewer calories and you get alot more alchohol in you in less time if that's your thing.

Lite beer pretty much sucks. That said, I don't mind Miller Lite or Sam Adams light. But, I'd rather drink a nice porter or Belgian quad.
