    Isn't that what happened to Corona too? I believe when Corona first came out it was a "cheap, nasty Mexican beer", but then people started putting limes in it, they raised the price and people now think it's the best.

    I know! There are certain bars up here in Michigan that consider Corona a "premium" beer, and charge more for it. And people pay it.
    I can't stand the stuff. It always tastes skunk to me.
    I always love when somebody tells me, "that's just how it tastes, you have to put a lime in it and it tastes better..."
    Sorry, I don't think you should have to put fruit in your beer to cover up it's foul taste.

    I agree, I can't stand Corona and putting a lime in it does nothing to me. I also find it funny how people will order it all summer or at the beach since that is the "type" of beer it is.


    True that, can't stand Corona even unfruited! And what's with oranges and beer my god. What's next a black and tan and banana? I'll just have Lite and make it 8 of them

    I have certainly downed more than my fair share of the High Life in my day, but it has been a while. Definitely a good beer and I actually started drinking it in college because I just couldn't stomach another Milwaukee's Best -- The BEAST" -- and it was comparably priced.

    Plus, its commercials are fuckin' hilarious! I love that dude!
    All I have to do is revel in the everyday....then do it again tomorrow

    They say every sin is deadly but I believe they may be wrong...I'm guilty of all seven and I don't feel too bad at all

    I'm one of those beer snobs. I tend to drink micros and craft brews. I don't think you can argue that they have more taste.

    Aside from some very amusing commercials the only thing good about High Life is that its beer.

    There's nothing better than sitting on the beach with a cooler of the champagne of beers watching the sun start to set. Just the aesthetic of the bottle alone is great. Nothing wrong with this beer at all. I enjoy myself a good beer as much as the next one, but just because it's cheap doesn't mean it's not a good beer.

    I may like the micros better but I still believe the phrase 'Bad Beer' is an oxymoron.

    High Life, Pabst, and Schmidt are my brands of choice. I am rather fond of more expensive beers, too, but I guess I do those as more a of a special occasion-type thing.

    Plus, we northern Minnesotans drink so much beer that there's no way we can afford the expensive shit. :lol:

    I became a fan of Leinies during my drunken pilgrimage to Lambeau, a few years back. :mrgreen:

    Remember the earlier High Life ads about guys who couldn't do typical "man stuff" like backing a trailer? Butter on a steak? Those were some good ads! :lol:

    But it's not about having money. My point with this was saying that just because it's cheap people think it's inferior, when I don't think that's true.
    I also love that you brought up Rolling Rock, when somebody here already pointed out that Rolling Rock used to be a cheap beer too, until they raised the price and it all of a sudden became "cool" to drink it. The product didn't change, just the price went up. Great example of people letting marketing companies make their decisions for them.
    We use to get the bucket of rocks in the bars.Way back...I mean way back.Can't stand Bud.As for pricey beers...I do like the Fat Angels that come from Burlington ,Vermont...runs aout 7.99 a six pack.Might be a little cheaper at the brewery...they've got a few others.
    The bus came by and I got on!!!!!
