I wish there were craft sodas so that everyone would call Coke and Pepsi horse piss.

There are certainly fancier brands, like Jones.
Jones soda is the bomb
Also Virgil's, especially their cream soda.
Is there a diet Jones tho?
In addition to Jones and Virgil as others have said we have Maine Root, Sprechers, Dublin and others. Most grocery stores in the US at least will have a small section of various root beers and other craft sodas. Stores like whole foods or other fancy type places will usually have more of a selection. World market has a ton as well I believe.
At least where I live there are a bunch of small soda brands at the grocery store make pepsi and coke seem like piss water.
We have coke. Pepsi is horse piss.
Horse piss has body and flavor and useful ammonia and phosphorus content. Do not denigrate it by comparing it to fucking Bud Light.
Here's my take: let people like what they like. Yeah, I don't like Budweiser. So what? I know a lot of people that hate extra peaty malt, and while I disagree, they're allowed to just not like Scottish malt whiskey.
You don't jump in on band wagons for validation? Weirdo
I don't like Bud Light. I have never liked Bud Light. It's been over twenty years since I've drunk a Bud Light.
However, I also believe there is a time and place to consume crappy American adjunct lager. Generally daytime outdoor activities.
I don't understand the culture of disparaging people for the beer they drink. I especially don't understand something along the line of a Coors Light drinker expressing existential superiority over a Bud Light drinker.
As to the craft drinkers, I see that as an entirely different market that should keep to itself. It's like Michelin star diners disparaging people who can only afford to occasionally eat at the local greasy spoon.
You don't understand dissing on others for stupid things?? But that's American tradition! Cannot have a man to look down on if there's nothing to be hyper-judgemental about.
Yup, light beers are great for college parties and outdoor drinking games. Cheap and you can drink literally all day without geting too drunk or bloated which is kind of the point of the product. Witbeers, lagers, etc are for when you actually want to get drunk off of a few beers and enjoy the taste. I think that anyone who genuinely compares the two have never actually been invited to a party where they serve alcohol or they just want to feel smugly superior about something and chose beer consumption of all things haha
I feel a small doubt now that people think I may be protesting when I buy miller lite here in the home of bud light (St. Louis) but Ive always hated bud lite and yes the brewery smells like shit.
Idk how you can say the brewery smells like shit. The kiss of the hops is the best part of the tour!
Tbh I'm still in shock that the usually well informed online queer space made bud light a trans icon. Anheuser-Busch donates to Republican candidates that are introducing bigotted bills against trans people
As far as I can tell, this is what happened:
Anheuser-Busch send one (1) bespoke label Bud Light to a trans influencer.
Fascists proceed to flip out as if that one beer was a declaration of war against transphobia.
Some people figure (quite wrongly) that the enemy of their enemy is their friend and embrace the GOP-supporting piss-water.
Mainly because Coors was heavily, directly anti gay rights for decades. Bud got the green light by being the less obvious evil, and then it became the default.
You know what horse piss tastes like?
Clearly he doesn't, because horse piss is actually way better than Bud Light. I mean, it actually has flavor at the very least.
Yeah. Bud light is more like the rinse water from when they clean the beer tanks.
I guarantee horse piss has more flavor than Bud Light.
Daring today aren’t we
Next week on on X Factor……..
What is going on with the bus light brewery?
I've worked at breweries. They should smell awesome.
While at university I worked for a small company and Budwieser was one of our clients. I would drop in occasionally to the brewery, and it always smelled like chundered beer.
Bud light always makes me think of having sex in a canoe.
Both are fucking close to water.
I can afford Bud if I want it, but you can't put a price on a lifetime ban from the ranch
Y'all offended?
Have a buddy that will buy 24 packs of that hot garbage for parties or get togethers. Either that or Keystone light. Not really sure why I'm friends with him...
Because he provides free beer for the group, even though some of them are pretentious assholes?
