Natty is Natural Bohemian. I don’t even drink alcohol and I know that. ---

I also thought that it referred to rotted soybeans. So I answered in the poll that I knew, but it turns out I didn’t. ---

No. And I don’t know how to even see polls on Tapatalk. (Let alone answer them.) Sent from my adequate mobile device using Tapatalk. ---

No clue. In my head I guessed it was a Brittishism for some kind of sausage. ---

I drink a ton of beer, but prefer “good” beer. i buy one bomber bottle for what a Natty 12 sells for. ---

I picked the top option despite not being a fan just because there’s no “I’m not a fan” option and I attended far too many nickel-beer nights in college to pretend to have never had it. ---

I’m usually a craft beer person, but I often have a Natty Boh when I go to Camden Yards. Of course it hasn’t been made in Baltimore in a jillion years. ---

I know exactly what it is unfortunately and even reading the poll made we want to hurl. I am hardly high-brow when it comes to cheap beer but that but that shit should be called Nasty instead of Natty. Almost any other cheap beer is better - Schiltz, Pabtz Blue Ribbon, Narragansett or even Keystone. This comes from someone who used to drink Mad Dog 20-20 and Night Train so I think my review deserves respect.
