    Most of those energy/caffeine beers taste like crap, they have a distinct chemical aftertaste. If your goal is to get blotto and stay awake all night, you may as well go all out with vodka and Redbull. Some of the coffee beers are OK though, there is a microbrew around here that has a decent porter with some coffee brewed in it.

    Recently, I .... came across information... that Kokanee Gold is a good beer. Of course, given the predisposition of college students to buy the cheapest, crappiest beer out there (busch lite, for one), it may just be the fact that it was a real beer that made it taste good.

    It's canadian and sold primarily in Alberta, I think.

    Yes, not to mention them buying goon or other cheap (dirt cheap) methods to get wasted.

    We have Kokanee in Quebec and it is horrid. Singularly unpleasant. Cat urine in a can. Bleah!

    I'd take Busch Lite hot off the stove over a cold Kokanee any day.

    Agreed. Kokanee is carp. Then again...Westerners and their awful beers. I think you're out of luck for finding decent Canadian beer, Rabbit.

    I think you and I may have...slightly...different tastes.

    Anyways, what do you haughty easterners think of Labatt Blue?

    PS: Seriously, hot Busch lite?!

    Hate, hate, hate. Unless it comes from a microbrewery or a small, independent brewer, it's Moosehead or Lakeport (Wee Willy) for me. This isn't counting imports, of course.

    Ah, another Moosehead fan. The Moose is my "utility" beer. It's getting harder to find in this area, but fortunately a friend of mine has an ABC licence and knows the distributor well. Keep sending it south!

    That's the way it should be.

    As my buddy used to say, "Lips that touch Labatt will never touch mine." If you're caught at home in a storm or killer elephants are blocking the store entrances, then Blue is fine standard swill, a noteworthy sludge, a drinkable pee. If, however, you have a choice, then there is no choice. It is to be avoided as are all soda pop + alcohol mass produced stinky beers.

    Sure. I dip frozen raw hamburger sticks in it. Great stuff.
