We could use another perspective
By Lieutenant Lager on Aug 30, 2007 in Rants
Having all been blessed with some ability to appreciate fine beer, we need a different sort of man to review the less respected beers of the world. A man who would rather hunt a deer using a stapler than enjoy a complex microbrew. A man who chooses his beer from the bargain bin (and to maximize alcohol content)… A man who knows that Steel Reserve is not a construction term of art…unless he’s sitting on his roof, pretending to patch up that leak that’s been there for a year and a half…A man who has no taste whatsoever…A drunk. Any ideas?
I know of such a man. In fact, we all do… he was always Mario in Mario Parties… and the Captain has already summoned him up on deck. He’s just kinda busy right now, but it shall be so.

Oh, hang on a second: all of us recall our first beers in college, and looking back remark about simply how terrible it is. Let me give an example:
In college, we drank Meister Brau and Meister Brau Lite. Absolutely retched beers when you think about it. Among this Wall of Shame also rests brews like Black Label, Old Milwaukee’s Best (a.k.a. “Beast”), Natty light (which was considered The Good Stuff), and Brigade Ice (a.k.a., “Violence in a Can”). The list of budget beers is endless, although beleive it or not, there are true gems in this list as well. Ever have PBR when it’s ice cold, right after mowing the lawn? Nothing better on this earth at that moment.
I applaud anyone who comes forth to bravely take on this noble task.

I miss Meister Brau. I always liked to pretend it just meant Mr. Beer in German, rather than its flagrant misnomer Master Brew.
