I guess I'm just your typical cretin, I just like Bud Light, and Jack Daniels or Jim Beam. I don't judge people for liking fruity stuff, I actually appreciate that they arent self conscious about that stuff. But sometimes it feels like some of my microbrew loving friends are just trying too hard.
Someone mentioned Four loco. My biggest memory of that was when I worked at a convenience store, that was the drink of choice for people that showed up at 10:00 am and paid with change.
Edit; I do remember one other beer I really enjoy is Honey Brown, but its pretty much big time also, just not to an anheuser busch extent.
Glad to hear I'm not alone in really enjoying this beer. I have always been a fan of regular Busch, not Busch lite, but regular Busch, if very cold, for a long time. Probably because I worked construction in Missouri.
Anyway, other things I keep around:

Oh if I have a Bartles and James in my hand it's because I'm handing it to a young woman that needed my attention.
One of these are 15-20% abv. I don't drink often, but when I do, I go for broke.

That Austin Eastcider recently showed up at our local Target. We really like the Texas Honey.
The Texas Honey is usually a bit sweet for me, but man, the Dry needs to be on tap in my house.
I like my beer to taste like beer.
I'm tired of how much breweries add stuff to beer and just busy it up without making it better. I'm frustrated going into craft beer bars wanting a nice 5-6% abv porter or stout, seeing they have a half dozen malty beers, but all of them have coffee, cocoa, coconut, spices, vanilla, nuts, fruit, maple syrup, barrel aged, ultra-hopped, and/or are >9%abv.
Nothing against you if you like that, but I'm starting to feel a bit left behind as someone who wants a well executed, strait forward beer.

My feelings as well. I think the popularity of craft beer is partly a result of these flavored beers appealing to a lot of people who really don't like or care about a well-executed, straight-forward beer. My local pub couldn't keep enough of a certain pumpkin beer on hand this past autumn. The consumers were mostly people who don't ordinarily drink beer. I could be wrong, but I think a lot of the trendy drinker crowd equates craft beer with flavored beer, whatever the flavor might be. (Of course, nobody here falls into that category though).
