I'm watching Monday night football, and this amazing commercial comes on.

You know how miller light has had all those commercials where someone is drinking bud light, and a ref comes up to him and says it is a penalty and replaces the bud light with a miller light...well, this is the bud light response.

We see a bunch of refs walking through a dark lawn holding cases of bud light. A cop walks up to them and says that he heard that there were refs going up to people and replacing their bud light with miller light (the cop holds up an evidence bag with a miller light in it). The refs all agree that that is terrible. The cop then says that he will need to see receipts for all the bud light they have. The refs then all freak out and run away.

The voice over then says "some people will do anything for a bud light."

LOL, I busted out laughing at that one. I thought it was a GREAT response to the miller light ads.

Whoo! Miller left themselves wide open for that one. Too bad I haven't seen it yet.

I hate the miller commercials. How dare they claim Miller Lite tastes great?

I just crack up at the "I can't taste my beer" commercials.

I mean, it's American mass produced swill beer... the last thing you want to do is taste it.

I keep wanting Bass or Guinness to do one of those tests... "which is darker?" "which has more taste?"... and have the test subject just look at them like they've lost their minds.

I saw these ads as well. I too laughed at them.

Budweiser has just taken an effective Miller advertisement campaign, and shredded it. Anyone who watched the ads tonight will either not remember which beer is which (still an advantadge to Bud), or will credit Budweiser for very effectively one-upping the competition at their own game. Almost makes me want to drink a Bud in their honor.

The worst is Coors:

The COLDEST tasting beer in America!

In my opinion, the best beers do not need to be cold, and in fact taste slightly better when they've warmed up a little.

Agreed Book. People who say they like a nice cold beer have never tasted real beer before. These are probably the same people who think coffee is too bitter without the sugar.

While I agree that many beers don't need to be icy-cold there are some situations where the colder the better.

A night following the third day in a row over 104 degrees when the temperature is still over 100 at 8pm and then all the power in the street goes off which of course means neither the air conditioning or the fan work is one of those. Just for example.

(The above happened last summer. And the icy icy cold beer I had was one of the best things I have ever tasted.)
