  It’s called a joke, you should look into it. It’s funny, sometimes.
context: Never complain kid.
  Options are good, even silly douchy hipster named ones.
  I'm old enough to remember the BEFORE TIME.  Back when "good beer" was "Genesee Cream Ale".
  We live in an age of wonder for beer.  Options are a good thing.  All US beer used to be terrible crap. >
  
  I liked the craft beer scene of about 10 to 15 years ago. You went from having a half dozen kinds of beers to choose from to a few dozen, and this made it easier to find a beer you actually liked. Nowadays, it seems like every pub is a brewpub or is getting their beer from different craft breweries and you never know whether you will like what they have on tap. >

  Beer is SUPPOSED to be low brow, simple, cheap, and uncomplicated. And I mean all of those as compliments, not criticisms.  I'm not saying there is no good beer or bad beer, but it does seem like the entire craft beer thing... is missing the point.  Or at least "a" point.
  I mean at the end of the day a few thousand years ago someone decided to take a swig of the leftover bread water after it had been left out in the sun for too long.   It seems weird to put a bowtie on that.
  It's like when high fancy restaurants have an upscale version of a Sloppy Joe.
  But on the other hand I occasionally supplement an my ordinary stock of Coca-Cola with a high end craft Soda brand from England, so maybe I'm talking out of my ass.  *Shrug* >
  
  The thing is though, anything can be as simple or as complex as you like. What's wrong with a variety, especially when it comes to something that can have a divisive "base" flavor. >
  
  I typically go to dives and biker bars. Real biker bars with 1%ers, no crotch rockets. I don't like my beer to taste like pine cones and cough syrup. >
  
  For real, nothing better than an ice cold bottle of classic American suds on a hot summer day, I don't get the appeal of drinking something that taste like it's been brewed with syrupy tree bark and dog shit, and leaves your gut bloated like you had 10 regular American macros. >
  
  Most American beers were terrible and were getting worse before the microbeer revolution. 
  Honestly, good classic American suds? What is that?  I can't name a good beer that came out of America before 1985.  Maybe Genesee Cream Ale? Maybe Sierra Nevada Pale Ale? And after 85 what came out is the start of what we have today: Sam Adams,  Goose Island, New Belgium, etc etc. >
  
  none of those beers you mentions are "suds". suds = a light pilsner, like a bud, coors, miller, pabst, etc. old style. rainier. yuengling (maybe not yuengling). >
  
  I've always thought most American pilsners are terrible.  Give me a German pilsner every time.
  Are you making a case that Bud, Coors, Miller, Pabst, Old Style or rainier are good beers?
  Edit - Yuengling is decent, but not a pilsner. I'd put that up with Genesee Cream Ale and Sierra Nevada as one of the better pre 1985 American beers. Yuengling DOES make a pilsner, it's just seasonal and not what most people mean when they say "Yuengling". >
  
  Miller High Life, the Champagne of beers baby  🍻 >
  
  yeeech.
  Can't say I agree, but I will say this about Miller:
  They still make the best LIGHT beer.  Lite beer is the best if you confine judging to light beers. >
  
  YES MATE! I always say “a beer please” and expect a Budweiser or something similar. If they ask “would you like X, Y, Z?” I cut them off and repeat: a beer please. >
  
  Is it difficult for you to ask for a budwiser? >
  
  After 6 of then, the pronunciation is difficult, yes. >
  
  Oh well if you're drunk then you shouldn't be served any more anyway, so I guess problem solved.
