Coors tastes like water.
Miller somewhat tastes like a beer. Usually good for cookouts and stuff if you're gonna be spending a few hrs and don't plan on getting hammered.
Any form of Budweiser gives me a hangover.

Miller is just awful, imo. Coors goes down like water, but if your water tastes like Coors, you may want to look into that...
Stopped by the Wexford Whole Foods tonight. Really nice selection. Definitely the final nail in the coffin for One For the Road.
Duchesse De Bourgogne for $4?!? Are you kidding me. What a steal. I asked the dude working the pub who the heck that happened and he said sometimes some really good buys slip in there. That would be one of them - not going to find it for less than $8. Can't wait to see what else happens to find its way into the mix and match section.
Also grabbed a Great Lakes Oktoberfest ($1.50) and Schneider Aventinus ($3.99). Boom.
Shiner Hefeweizen... picked up a 6 pack because i have to try every hefe i see, and this was reasonably cheap ($6.99). It's certainly drinkable, but this is not a hefeweizen.
Had a Boulder Hoopla Pale Ale...pretty darn good. Piney hoppy flavor. I've been drinking a lot of strong IPAs, so this was a nice half-step down in the hops dept.
Then had a Spaten Ocktoberfest Ur-Marzen. I really liked it. I've had it from the bottle before, but this was a first from the tap. Very smooth and drinkable. Great flavor.

...i'm intrigued. I am saving my bottles of Fathead's Headhunter IPA in my fridge for evenings when I feel like a great beer. I just ran out of my Widmer Brother's variety pack, so I might need to stop at the distributor this evening.
I hear ya - it's pricey. I know you like sours/wilds, and I was really blown away by how phenomenal it was. I didn't think a sour stout would work but they nailed it.
I have a couple sours/wilds coming in from portland this weekend. Looking forward to the Cascade Strawberry. I have also been holding a Cascade Kriek for this weekend too.

Cascade does amazing stuff. I've had Sang Noir which was unreal.

Yeah, my buddy who lives out there mistakenly told the guy at Cascade that my 2009 Kriek was a Sang Noir and the guy about fell over, said they won't be making it for a couple years. Not sure when or if I'll get to try that one.
Not sure what else is coming, but I think I'm finally going to get a Boulevard Saison Brett.
