TGMPCBC, Part 6 - Region Three

For a long time now I have dreaded group three, nicknamed by me as the "group of death". There is only one beer that I have ever drank in this group, of course it is the MGD.

So we have:
Colt 45 vs. Keystone Light, winner plays the winner of Icehouse vs. MGD for a coveted spot in the final four.
First off, Colt 45 vs. Keystone Light. KL gets the nod for the fastest vanishing head of ALL of the beer so far. It was gone in about 5 seconds.
Colt 45 vs. Keystone Light:

The Colt 45 had an absolutely unidentifiable smell, and it was horrible. It almost smelled like spoiled fruit. The hops were all goofed up too.

KL had a metallic aftertaste and a sort of almost cornwater flavor. But it was a rancid type of deal.

The winner by default is Colt 45, although neither really deserved to win.

Icehouse vs. MGD:

The Icehouse had an almost flowery aroma, but literally no flavor. I mean zero. The MGD had a much stronger cornwater flavor and almost no aftertaste.

MGD got the win in this one.

Colt 45 vs. MGD:

No contest, MGD. The Miller products seem to be creeping into the finals, as now Miller Lite and MGD are in. As usual, all of these horrible beers went down the drain, but the winner of the group gets the photo with me.
Mercifully, only one group left to go, then the semifinals and finals.

GO MILLER PRODUCTS!

I have the Lite and High Life glasses (goblets?) that you bought me but no MGD one so I can't toast this roaring success

Down the drain? That's alcohol abuse.

It is funny that you buy such big cans. Are you trying to make up for the low quality with high quantity?

I buy the king cans because I didn't want to buy too much of this swill. I don't need a sixer and you can buy the king cans singly where I live - typically around $2 each.

As it is I have to buy a "four pack" of the Old Milwaukee and Coors, and both are just BARELY acceptable for the brat hottub.
