Do You Like Light Beer?


HEY...... you're not supposed to like it, it's light beer. Okay, that too harsh. It's long been my contention that everything has it's place even.....ahem.....light...uh...beer. The pros an cons of light beer go something like this:

Con: It's flavorless.

Pro: It's thirst quenching!



Con: It's flavorless.

Pro: It's low calorie!


Con: It's flavorless.

Pro: You can drink a lot of it without.........oh, heck you get the idea.


The thing is, the pros are right (of course so are the cons)---it is thirst quenching and low calorie and there are time where that actually counts for quite a bit. For instance I love Guinness, but let me tell you after I finish mowing the lawn (or maybe just before) stout is not what I'm aching for. A little extra water in your beer may be just what the bartender recommends. Admittedly, you could just a non light beer and and add some lemonade and make a traditional English shandy. But, really that's a different post, don't you think?
