Budweiser is the beer of fools. I have nothing against swill beer. I've drunk a tanker truck of it over the years. The problem with Budweiser is that is swill beer, but it's priced like it's decent beer. The extra cost pays for the advertising to convince folks that it is a quality product. Milwaukee's Best Light tastes no worse than Bud Light, Miller Lite or Coors Light, so it is foolish to pay more.
