I must admit I have drank many a rolling rock.
Any one out there have the courage(?), or lack of common sense might be a better description, to try a Miller Chili?
Oh dear god, man, do you honestly have such a low opinion of us DBR OT Denizens?!?
I got suckered by the marketing when Chill first came out. It wasn't as bad as it sounds, but I couldn't drink more than one or two in a sitting. Of course, I don't mind the occasional fruit slice in my beer and I even remember liking Tequiza (although I haven't had one in a while).

Forced to drink one by someone who swore it was great. Tastes like a sprite with a hint of alcohol. Not a beer, more like a malt beverage along the lines of Zima.
I did use a cup of it to boil some shrimp and they were delicious!
Devildeac owns this thread too...perhaps he has a beer obsession?
Not as bad as the memory of Genny Cream, but on a par with Bud Ice Light.
Ycch, Beer:
Let's talk about embarrassing. We hosted a dealer appreciation cocktail hour in our booth after the show one night. At first I was really excited only to find out the beer choices were Bud and Bud Light. The wine choices were much worse so I had to drink some Ycchy Beer. Though after a grueling few days on the show floor, about 12 hours of sleep in 4 days, an ice cold Bud did the trick. There I said it. Please destroy this post.
I'm gonna throw this out there and say Budweiser gets an undeserved bad rap. If you are looking for a good example of an American lager, then Bud is perfect. I don't believe those who complain about taste, or lack thereof have compared lagers enough. Being a light lager, they are naturally low on flavor, as opposed to a dark lager or good ale, which you will taste before it hits your tongue. And being that there are differences between European and American lagers, enjoy an all American product that is respected by other countries.
Given an overly bad review by our home soil drinkers, and yet it is constantly outselling everyone. People don't buy bad beer for the price it's sold, no matter how cool the commercials are. It's never going to be the BEST beer in America, but it will always be one of the best AMERICAN beers.
