If you're talking about Macro Lager I'll agree but great craft lager is delicious.

Edit: GOOD craft lager, lol double edit I guess that first beer went to my head already. A Kolsch though, not a lager.

I was raised catholic too but before the early 00s most Catholics I know viewed churches where anyone but the priest had communion wine as dangerous subversive hipsters. I’d only seen it done at the happy clappy catholic youth retreat we were sent to for a weekend a couple of times a year...

It's a southern thing maybe?

Nah communion wine is routinely crap and sweet, just for some reason churches in this neck of the woods didn’t routinely offer it up to celebrants until 20ish years ago. Or maybe that was just the churches I went to...
 
Also certain American light beers aren't bad if your just drinking it to catch a buzz. Doesn't exactly rate high in taster but it'll get you drunk. That said I prefer craft beer myself
 
Even craft lagers are boring. There is only so much you can do to it.
I enjoyed it in my youth though along with the scrapping.

Catholicism is the main reason I was averse to wine for so long. It took my girlfriend introducing me to dry sours to make me appreciate what wine had to offer

Thought that would get you going. I actually like Guinness but I still think it’s overrated. I prefer Murphy’s when I can find it.

That’s a double declaration of war! Murphy’s is so crap that I’ve actually never seen a pub in Ireland with it on tap...

Beamish is an acceptable non Guinness answer, it just marks you out as one of them lot from down there...

I'm not super initiated in beer types. What exactly is a lager officially?
Click to expand...
Lager is actually as much a type as Ale. What it really means is that a bottom fermenting yeast is used (as opposed to ale's top fermenting yeast) it is also cold conditioned (which is called lagering). There are also many different types of lagers, from Baltic Porters to Pilsners, so saying there is only so much you can do with the style isn't correct. People even make IPLs to good effect. Pretty much everything Jack's Abbey makes is great. Wish I could get them down here.
