Historical Community Tasting Notes

Preserved from the RateBeer community archive (circa 2000–2018)

For you snobs who know what "bar swill" tastes like (good for you) you can continue drinking beers that cost $8.99 for a six-pack. As for me, when I come home from work Ill drink an ice cold, smooth MGD any night. Not every beer has to be new or a micro-brew to be good. Dont be afraid to crack open a beautiful yellow MGD.
If I have to drink a commercial american beer, then I will take a budweiser...But maybe thats because I am a Cardinal fan.
Its a little better than the lite variant., but still crap. Waterish taste overall
