If you want to talk about cheap beers you have not lived until you taste the fine brew of a Genesee Light or Utica Club Ale. Scoff at bud all you want, but you don’t know cat piss till you’ve had these. They make Bud look like the king of all beers 😉 Gotta love local upstate NY brewries. Duh ---

Yeah they are having some trouble, but I think they found a way to stay open. I think I remember hearing on the news that nobody was going to lose their job… but who knows. Things change here so frequently it’s hard to tell what might happen next. Duh ---

We’re currently setting up a psychological triage camp for people in this thread who choose Bud Light, but it’s not going to be set up for several hours yet. Try to hang in there, folks. ---

Bud or Bud Light? they both came out the business end of a Clydesdale…does it make a difference? In my basement, 3 soda kegs of homebrew… on tap: Belgian Stong Ale on deck: Robust Porter clean up: Oatmeal Stout the jealous whimpering may now commence 😃 ---

Ah, if only I could afford to drink micro-brewed-ten-buck-a-six-pack beer whenever I desired. But until then, a cold Budweiser on a hot day serves its purpose. As does a 40 of King Cobra in a damp paper bag. As does that last ounce of warm Schaefer in the bottom of the can. They all have their place in the Great Beer Universe. ---

I’d love to give you an opinon, but the only beer I’ve had the oppertunity to consume would be Belgian beer. With that said, if you ever get the chance any Belgian beer, damn its good… [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/budweiser-or-bud-light/31413.md?page=1)
