About 6 weeks ago I had the honor of stewarding the World Beer Cup. One
of the judges at the table I was working was from Miller. We had prepped
the table with bread, crackers and two pitchers of tap water. Right
before the session began she asked me if we had any bottled water so I
said, "Sure, which kind do you want, Miller Light or MGD?" It got a luagh
-- I went and found her a couple of big bottles of spring water.

Turns out she is responsible for product consistency and has a rather
amazing palate. Listening to her contribute to that judging session was
an eye-opener for me -- there is a lot going on in the lighter flavored
beers that my own senses are blind to. I guess I have a very subdued
sense of taste and smell so I like over the top, ultra hoppy or ultra
malty (or both) beers and very heavily seasoned food.

I wonder, though, what the original poster meant by "weak." If it's a
reference to alcohol content I'd suggest finding a bottle of Dogfish Head
World Wide Stout. It's an American Beer, isn't it?
