    What would make you think that? Chimay is something you can buy off the shelf at the local grocery shop here, so I guess I really discovered it (taste wise) a few years back thanks to my best buddy suggesting it to me, who so happens to be from Belgium. I'm only 22 but I started appreciating beer about 7 years ago so I do have a few favourites.
    American beers however, I haven't a clue about You'll have to initiate me!

    IMO:
    Without offending anyone (I hope) my suggestion is, major brand name American beers are not worth investigating. There are many American craft beers from smaller breweries that rival the best German and Belgian brews. I can't comment on light beers of any type. I think all of them taste truly awful. When I just want to drink beer I get Pilsner Urquell. I don't like or drink malt liquor either.

    Funny you mention Pilsner, I was in Prague (Czech Republic) last September. Everyone one was telling me they had some good beers there, but Pilsner didn't do anything for me.

    I think Coors Light etc are okay as a refreshing drinks, no more. Just like EStat, I enjoy a light lager as a refreshment. Hard liquor I don't have a taste for, save a few I really enjoy when I have them (Bailey's, Disaronno).

    I think we're drifting pretty severly from the original heated debate to be. It's funny how some of these threads change to beer talk
