I stand corrected. I was thinking of the 60 Minute IPA with the green label.

I have not been able to find Dinkel Acker dark ANYWHERE for the past two [censored] years. And it's one of my favorite beers. WTF gives.

If you're in that area. Otherwise, I'm in FL and I don't have any trouble finding this at bars and beer stores. Where are you?

I had no idea Heineken had such a bad rep amungst the beer snob crowd. Whats a better version of that i should try if i like Heineken Premium Light? Something i can find somewhat easily.

4,

Most of the Czech pils listed in this thread are good beers: Staropramen, Pilsner Urquell, Budvar, etc. If you're in the midwest/Great Lakes area, the Great Lakes Dortmunder Gold is excellent. If you're in the NE, Brooklyn Lager is also a really good beer. The American craft brew scene is so much more focused on ales than lagers there isn't nearly the diversity you might expect to find, but Brooklyn is probably the best combo of availability and quality that I've seen. You're always rolling the dice to some extent with Euro imports because of both the transit and the tendency to use green bottles, but it shouldn't be too hard to find a decent Lowenbrau/Urquell/Spaten.

Heineken isn't really bad, it's just "blah" in comparison to a lot of other beers in the same style. I doubt even beer snobs would say that a BMC is actively distasteful, it just doesn't taste like much, and they'd rather spend an extra buck or two getting more flavor out of their beer. If you like Heineken because its quaffable, gives you a buzz, and isn't a liquor drink, that's fine. But whatever you do, buy it in cans, not bottles.

Except bud light, I think my 3 favorite beers come in green bottles. Heineken light, rolling rock & stella.

People admit to Bud Light being one of their favorite beers? Beer snobbery aside, Bud Light is [censored] disgusting.

Umm... Yeah... I think you've disqualified yourself from anymore beer talk. Pls stop.
