Yea grew up in MN, Cold Springs is still around, couple of old classics that are now gone. Fitgers, and Grain Belt. the 3.2% non package store stuff was referred to as Weasel whiz. I'm pretty sure Grain Belt is still available. Grain Belt Nordeast isn't bad, neither is Grain Belt. It's kind of like High Life used to be, but ain't now.

For the record: I agree with Mr. Conrad, IPAs taste like schit. Way too bitter with the hops you can damn near chew. Every swinging dick thinks they're a master brewer, when in reality the stuff they brew tastes like month old ass. Two swinging dicks got into an argument over which brewed the better beer. They both sent samples into a lab to try and gain the upper hand. When they opened the lab report it read: We regret to inform you that your horses have sugar diabetes.

The original Grain Belt Brewery in Northeast Minneapolis is closed. The beer is now brewed at Schell's in New Ulm.

Correct.
Which is probably why it's tolerable now...
See my Pig's Eye reference......
Although Schell's can make some junk brews as well. I've had 'em....

Red Stripe is also terrible. It's not as bad as Bud Light Platinum,...but it's bad.

Day to day beer that is poorly brewed with cheap ingredients.......Corona. Worst beer ever by a commercial brewery? Some Chinese version of a stout that tasted like iodine and seawater. It was fuggin horrible. As a person who has had the misfortune of judging far too many home brews, this beer was stand out awful.
Most of the macro brewed US stuff is decent. It’s just a style that has little character. Bud is my least favorite. Gravitate towards Miller Lite for a lawn mower hydration type beverage.
Too many great beers available today to even try to list favorites.

Who remembers Billy Beer. Now that [bleep] was nasty.

Buckhorn was pretty awful but it was cheap....

The two best that I've found are Big Sky and Deschutes but I don't like everything either one of them makes either.

Heineken for sure is the worst.
I won't call it bad, but Leinwnkugel is not good, considering it seems quite popular.

Any beer that some craft IPA so called fan recommends. They sniff, mention cost, tell me how "industrial beer sucks", I know what they are pushing will definitely have flavor. And it will be bad.
Had the same experience when a guy handed me a Guinness.
Batchy!!!
Watched a documentary on European beer. They were interviewing this dude who owned a renowned btewery in Germany. And American big beer was mentioned. The interviewer mentioned the low rating some have of American beer. His response was Actually I find American beers quite good. It amazing they can Produce the huge quantity of product, and do so with such a good product."
But then we are American. The dipshits f everything up, trying to out dick each other. You make good hot wings...... mine have hotter peppers. Your Apple pie is good.......mine has more spices. Your beer has hoppes..........my hoppes wine tastes a bit like beer.
Everything we make gets destroyed, when idiots think the defining ingredient should become the only thing y3ou can id.
Hell buy store bought breakfast sausage (I wontl). If you could stuff sage and maple in a casing, they would. And I like a bit of sage or maple.
Apologies, Rant over.

Sierra Nevada Otra Vez - beer is pretty hard to improve on, and trying to brew it out of cactus and other crap definitely doesn't improve it...
