One of those mass-produced German beers that I wouldn't drink on purpose in Germany, but will gladly buy every once in a while abroad. Mediocre beer, but drinkable for sure.

I think it's one of the most sold beer in Germany haha. For me, Beck's is the German equivalent of Heineken. Bland, watery, shallow taste, inoffensive, and sometimes skunky. It actually tasted much better before the original brewery was bought by InBev. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coma 1,766 Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 Coors Light, Cold as the Rockies. Actually not too bad for what Id consider a shit beer. Prevalent corn aftertaste, but it has a lot of flavor otherwise. I'd drink another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Coors Light when I'm going to be drinking an absurd amount of beer in a one day - I think it's the least repulsive mass produced American light beer. But for things like parties, BBQs, feeling like I need to have 12 beers as quickly as possible, etc... Coors Light's a pretty solid choice.

Bitburger is actually brilliant if you drink it in the Eifel. It somehow tastes different there. Not sure if that's the case because they have it on tap there, or if the air is different or something. Warsteiner has a very strong taste. Like almost nutty...just weird.

Like almost nutty...just weird. I wouldn't call it brilliant, but yeah, for me it's the best out of the four, and yeah, I also drank it in Eifel Krombacher on tap tasted fantastic in Tenerife Bitburger > Krombacher > Radeberger > Warsteiner. But still, the taste profile is extremely similar to me. Especially the first three. I think Bitburger is a bit more "herb" than the other two.

Sounds like it'll be okay as a one off over Xmas then. Wanted to have a selection of beers I don't usually drink to tide me over the festive period. And that are cheap as I saw this in the supermarket the other day on offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh absolutely, definitely worth trying if you haven't had it before. I would rather drink it than most other mainstream European beers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granted it's been a long time since I've had this but the corn was the first thing that I noticed. I agree...this might be my new beer of choice when I'm in a high-consumption/low-quality situation.

Spike 5,103 Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 The corn is probably from using high fructose corn syrup to increase the ABV during fermentation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coma 1,766 Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 The Champagne of Beers. Pretty much flavorless scheiß, even compared to Bud Light. This is the shittest beer so far. I've always thought Miller Lite was an inferior product and this isn't any better. The only redeeming part of this post here is that 2 cats crashed the photo.

Nice work cats, thanks for saving the post. I've never had Miller High Life because the tag line "The Champagne of Beers" is very unappealing to me, as I think champagne is shite.
