i like rolling rock and budweiser also. i think heineken and the like
actually taste bad - too bitter or 'hoppy' for me.

but some who like that sort of thing, foreign or microbrews, feel
compelled to describe american beers as 'horse ****.' i'm not sure
why, other than to boost their self-esteem as having 'good taste.'

if you don't like it, fine, but there's no need to sneer at those who
do.
