I used to work at a micropub in a touristy college town, and the amount of request's for Bud and Coors Light was so great the owners caved in and began stocking it. I don't know who I thought less of, the snobs who gushed over every nuance of some truly awful craft brews (though most of the standard choices there were very good), or the idiot's who insisted on spending $3.50 for a 12oz. bottle of Coors Light rather than try something different and very good.

Anyways, drinking coffee tonight.

One of my neighbors likes to troll the wine-drinking equivalent of those sorts of people by serving them cheap wine in fancy-brand bottles. Most of the time they don't realize what's happened and think the wine is fine.

Got stood up on a date tonight. Which is alright, because I was not terribly keen about it anyway. It's a Lone Star kinda night, tonight.

Yeesh, that could do with a little smattering of finings.

What hops did you use? I have a massive hard on for simcoe right now but it's a shame you can't get any for love nor money at the moment. I'm using a lot of super alpha and riwaka in my current Pale Ale recipe.

Haha I'm not opposed to cheap beer by any means. I'll enjoy a cheap beer or malt if the occasion calls for it or my wallet is getting thin (or when either is free). But by no means "a beer is a beer" true. I'm not trying to be snobby about it or anything.

Saying "a beer is a beer" is as dumb as saying "a cola is a cola." There's a world of difference between generic K-Mart brand cola and Mexican Coke, and the same sort of thing is true of every type of beverage (except water; those people who have to drink fancy brands of bottled water are just fooling themselves.)
