As threads go, this one is not for me.

Pilsner with Sprite... You just can't chug that many heavy bodied German beers when it gets above 85 degrees.

When did Pilsner become "heavy bodied"?

Most are full bodied, none of that insipid licht Scheiße.

I guess heavy/full body is a relative term, but bjcp (not that it is any authority, I just had it handy ), describes german and czech pilsner respectively as "medium-light body" and "medium body".

Barleywines (amongst others) they describe as "full bodied". Actually "full bodied and chewy". I guess its where you want to define the midpoint.

You should try adding a pinch of salt to your Coors Light next time. It really compliments the pure Rocky Mountain flavor.

I think Roger would charge 25 cents for salt in the beer.

It was sad when I discovered the "citrus wedge" upcharge was no longer on the menu.

But salting the can may prevent the Cold Mountain for Dummies feature from turning blue, and we wouldn't want that, would we?

We just included the citrus wedge upcharge in the price, and advised servers, when asked, to say, "Looks like we're all out of citrus wedges tonight."

Coors has taken that to a new level

Nothing beats a "super cold" beer. Unless of course it's "triple hops brewed."

I don't guess Stroh's is "kräusened" any more ...

When did Pilsner become "heavy bodied"?

I meant compared to American Macros, not to a Guiness. You won't likely want to down a dozen Flensburgers on a day out at the lake. You'd bloat up like a puffer fish.

To me the only ligitimate use of Macro lagers is out on the lake, floating around the boat on your floaty-thingy, peeing right in the water, and swilling down cheap, ice-cold rice water. That's what the stuff was made for. Call it my guilty pleasure.

When did Guinness become "heavy (and/or full) bodied?"

When did Guinness become "heavy (and/or full) bodied?"

To the layman, when it became dark. Everyone knows, the darker the stronger.

The heavy body is what allows it to float on top of Bass.
