1. Except for carbonated piss,

Or Corona,

I can't think of anything lower in the drink hierarchy.

[TheMightyFavog]

39. What about any and all Budweiser products?

Mind you I'm talking about the fermented horse piss made in St. Louis, not the Real Budweiser made in the Czech Republic.

[Xipe Totec]

41. Budweiser has the redeeming quality of being cheap piss

Coors and Corona are piss at premium prices.

[noamnety]

2. shhhh

you are embarrassing yourself.

[Moondog]

3. As phrased, I'd have to agree with you.

But then, I'm not really a beer drinker. Wine? Sure. Liquor? Absolutely. Beer? I'm allergic to something in it, and can only drink one before I turn into a total mucoid and my frontal lobe turns to snot for 24 hours.

[azmouse]

5. I'd pay to see that....

[Moondog]

9. No need. I'll do it for free for friends.

Of course, I won't be much of a conversationalist, what with clogged nose enunciation and all.

[arbusto_baboso]

4. Uhhhhh..... okay!

[mix]

6. it's made with rice

but the taste alone scares me away

7. Pete Coors's wife Marilyn

...sits on the board of Pat Robertson's Regent University. Never mind that if you work for Pat, you are not allowed to drink. But as Bob Dylan said, "Money doesn't talk, it swears."

Pete's dad Joseph was on Reagan's informal "kitchen cabinet" when he was governor of California. This relationship carried on when the Coors family bankrolled many of the illegal weapons and airplanes used by the contras in Nicaragua in the 80's.

Coors is anti-union to the extreme, pro-censorship, and anti-choice.

If all of that is not bad enough, what the fuck is up with the Coors Light marketing people? The mountains on their containers turn blue when it's cold enough. If you can't tell how cold your beer is by TOUCH, maybe you shouldn't be drinking beer.

Plus, it isn't fit to be called alligator piss.

[JuniperLea]

14. Oh man! Even more reasons to avoid that bilge water!

I haven't had a Coors since high school... praise be to all the powers that have made that true!

[Zomby Woof]

16. I drank Coors in high school too

Like most high schoolers - drank all the big 3 beers: Bud-Miller-Coors. No micros where I was back then either. Didn't know better - it was at the end of Reagan's first term as president too. When new shit came to light, I quit! I think the last Coors I had was in 1987.

[KamaAina]

8. You people actually thought I was SERIES???///??/??//?

This is HUGH!!111!!!11!!!11!

[Zomby Woof]

13. CALL CONGRESS RIGHT FUCKING NOW!!!111

Hey, you know humor was outlawed in the Lounge a LONG time ago.

[Zomby Woof]

10. Pete Coors: draft-dodging, DWI-ing, frat boy

And Republican assclown (Santorum supporter yet!):

11. Better for what?

I admit I've become a snob. I've been drinking home brew cask ale with exotic hops and malts.

I wouldn't piss on myself with Coors Light if I were on fire.

[KamaAina]

15. Better for starting a goofy Lounge copycat thread

that's about it.

[begin_within]

17. It's kind of a ritual among Colorado guys to go to the stream

that supplies the water they make Coors from and piss in it.

[KamaAina]

18. How could they not have gotten a South Park episode out of that?!

[Zomby Woof]

19. Probably because

Trey Parker and Matt Stone's politics are too simpatico with the Coors family.

[begin_within]

24. I don't think it's very well known, but

when I was in college I had several roommates from Colorado, and they all told me that they had done that. It's kind of a rite of passage to piss in the stream that becomes Coors. I guess it's not known much beyond Colorado.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

20. Carbonated yak pee marketed by wingnuts.

[Zomby Woof]

21. That should be their new slogan

[BOSSHOG]

22. I'll take

an Ice Cold Bud Draft on the balcony of the Tropical Isle at the corner of Bourbon and Orleans. Come on down KamaAina, beers on me. I think the TI has Coors.

[KamaAina]

23. Hell, I'd drink carbonated yak piss at Tropical Isle!

One of the very few places I've ever been picked up. Right under my Mom's nose, no less!

25. This is my second most successful thread this month.

No. 1 was a copycat relating to gin and tonic.

What, pray tell, does this say about me?

[bigwillq]

29. That you're not a good judge of alcohol?

[Bassic]

26. Coors Light is no beer at all.

Nothing better than a Floreffe, or Chambly Noire, or Dead Guy Ale, and so on

[bluedigger]

27. No beer ANYTIME is better than Coors Light!

Why is Coors like making love in a canoe?

They're both fucking close to water!

[bigwillq]

28. Coors Light is crap.

[ornotna]

30. This is the reason you will continue to be alone and miserable.

[KamaAina]

32. You may very well have a point there.

She of my fondest desires is a beer enthusiast. Fortunately she does not read DU (or if she does, I'm toast ), so she won't see this (or the other three brazillion posts about her scattered around here, up to and including poetry).

[texanwitch]

31. A shiner beer is better.

I know because I am drinking one right now.

[EndersDame]

37. Yay! Shiner

I like their Hefeweizen for summer but stay clear of the summer smokehouse beer it tastes like jerky

[Lorax]

33. I read it wrong.

When I first saw this thread, I thought you meant "better to have no beer than to drink Coors Light". I was all set to agree. Then I read it again and realized my mistake.

Coors Light sucks. If you want water, go to the sink and get some. If you want to drink beer, drink a real beer. I love, love, love a good microbrew. I just had a lovely stout with my fish & chips at a local brew pub. It was divine. Granted, stout isn't what most people drink in the summer, but it happens to be my favorite. All of the beers are great there.

I didn't even like beer until about 10 years ago when I had some at this brew pub. Until then, all I had ever had was Bud, Coors Light, Rolling Rock, and Iron City Light in college. I thought I hated beer, until I had real beer. Then I was in love.

[trof]

35. I think you read it right the first time.

[seemunkee]

34. I have 2 kegs of homebrew that would prove you wrong

[peekaloo]

36. "Kewers Light".

an English bartender friend of mine used to not only mock the Texan pronunciation when ordering the swill but for also drinking "Galveston piss water".

[Curtland1015]

38. Correct. I would rather have NO BEER, than have Coors Light.

[KamaAina]

40. I guess I really, really should've used the sarcasm thingie

but I would have thought that, as a Dallas sex worker once said of Marv Albert's rug, it was "kind of obvious".

[Xipe Totec]

42. Don't take us seriously either

The problem with sarcasm, is that you can't tell when people are being sarcastic right back at ya....

BAN SARCASM FROM YOUTUBE!!

And then, "what have i done!?"

[sasquatch]

43. Blasphemy!! That beer is unworthy of the panthion of good summer time beer

[fujiyama]

44. It's one of the better light beers out there

That's not really saying much as the competition is especially poor. Bud Light IMO wins the closest to water award. Hell when drunk, I've mistaken it for water. Miller light is a bit better.

I tend to avoid all of them though and the politics of Coors makes it even more unappealing. I may be mistaken but I think all the major macro brews are RW. Yuck.

The one that surprised me was Pabst on tap. Surprisingly good for a cheap beer. But it tasted AWFUL out of a can. But then again, beer out of a can is something I have not drunk in over five years since it usually is pretty nasty, the only exception being Guinness.

I'm more of a micro-brew craft beer kind myself. We had a great beer fest in MI yesterday!

[Inchworm]

45. Is that an error?

NO BEER IS BETTER IN THE SUMMER, than Coors Light.

NO BEER is better, in the summer, than Coors Light.

NO BEER is better than Coors Light in the summer.

Sorry.. my brain exploded trying to say that having no beer is better.

Where is my beer?

[Paladin]

46. Ice-Cold Can Of Tecate, With A Large Lime Wedge.

Best summer beer, bar none. Refute me if you dare......
