After years of sampling beers from all over the country, I finally had the realization that all the American lagers are the same, and that you are essentially drinking the label. Your perception affects how the beer tastes to you. That taste may or may not be good on any given day, depending on a number of factors, many of them having more to do with you than on the beer itself. Now, whenever I order one of these beers, I get a glass of ice and pour the beer over it.
Ice is the great equalizer, and even something as nasty as a Budweiser becomes drinkable.
