coors lite is utter utter gash! At least juplier lite is worse

(had that yesterday)

Plus DJ 0 points?!? :eek:

Raptor · 25 May 2013 at 20:13

Sapporo light was really nasty

Martynt74 · 25 May 2013 at 20:13

Sorry DJ (I'm still calling you that!)

I was going off the basis that its a light version of their beer It's Alive

I knew it was a bit of a risky option though so happy to take no points. Surprised to see no Miller though.

Edit: Whoops I clicked quote instead of edit!

Sonea Fifer · 25 May 2013 at 20:19

Woohhhaaaa - hold the ******* boat Mr DJ (Clasped in prayer

)

I'm assuming my entry is under discussion / vote due to the N/A in the name?

My entry certainly does have alcohol and here's the proof:

Surely that makes it a lite/light beer even if it doesn't have either of the names in the title?

*Toys out the pram*

Rojin · 25 May 2013 at 20:21

Quite happy with the 3 points, nearly bought Becks Light so that would've also been 3. Also would've been 3 with the Bath Ales as well!

cheechm · 25 May 2013 at 20:37

Knew I should have gone with Miller Lite.

PS. Coors is absolutely crap.

Ahleckz · 25 May 2013 at 20:40

Boom. Back up there.

Meh

Repta · 25 May 2013 at 21:05

Was a choice between Becks Light and Bud Light for my safe choices, 3 points, can't complain! Now this is done I am curious. Would Adnams Lighthouse or Old Jamaica Ginger Beer Light been valid entries?

On a side note, I've ended up with 6 Bud Light, 6 Becks Light which are both awful. 12 Adnams Lighthouse getting delivered and bloody ginger beer all for 1 round. Think I went a bit overboard!

I'm voting to allow both the contested entries.

God speed, questioned ones.

pingwing · 25 May 2013 at 21:38

Oh yeah neither of the contested ones should be allowed on the basis they don't advertise the liteness which has been the classifier of all valid entries before (otherwise I could have sent in bud 66 or something else low in booze)

I'll apologise and stand corrected if you can show me where this was said / posted in relation to this weeks entry?

I was under the impression it was the theme of the rules over this comp that if its not directly saying lite/light as an advertisement then it's not in, so alight isn't in as its a different word and juplier isn't in because it doesn't specify light (sadly as I do understand your technicality and this round would have been better as light being lite/light/under 4% bit that's a bit of hindsight)

Shame as its technically a good entry (if a god awful beer)

Busy quoting my self for unreasonable/undeserved posterity

It really is the worst beer I have ever tasted. It should be against the Trade Descriptions Act to call it beer. meh, should have bought the Becks Light, though the alcohol content in it made me not want to buy a four pack.

Sorry we didn't make it. Went out but didn't get back in time. Gratz to everyone.
Only had Coors light anyway.
Still, looking forward to next week.
