1. Other: Not nearly as terrible as you think it should be

Compared to microbrews, sure it's bad, but for the price, it's drinkable. It's not half as bad as, say, Natty.

3. It's the only beer I drink.

And I only like it in the cans. Weird, huh? The bottles just don't taste as good to me. Watery or something.

Anyway, I like your poll.

I'm knocking back a cold one right now.

Cheers.

5. Odd, I am just the opposite, only bottled beer.

I feel like I taste the can when drinking cans, and I like the feel of a bottle. Cans are too fat for me. They also seem to warm up faster. Different strokes for different folks, I guess.

6. Hmmmm

I've lately taken to beer myself, after being a wine person for most of my adult life. I prefer Belgian-style wheat ale personally, the kind brewed with coriander and citrus. It's kind of surprising to find that not all beers are the swill that I gulped as a teen (with the goal of just getting drunk), there are all types out there, and have as much diversity as wine does, really.

Don't know where Icehouse stacks up, though. Mebbe I'll give it a try, now. :)

7. Meh, just not a beer drinker.

I have maybe five or six a year. Just not that into it. I think I might be mildly allergic to hops - beer clogs my nose. WIne and spirits, no problem. A beer, and I almost instantly become a mouth-breathing mucoid.

8. Here-it is 10 bucks for a case.

That is cheap! It tastes like other American swill but with more octane. Thus-it rates as good.

9. As a malt liquor enthuiast, it is a little weak for my tastes.
