Hey lanny, every now and then i would order a Michelo Ultra for 2.9 carbs or something like that but it tasted like selzer water to me. So now i drink Amstel Light and i think it has 4.9 carbs (i may be wrong, i know it's light thoug)...You know it's funny that before this woe, i hated beer. My favorite drinks were the sweet mixed drinks like Malabu and cranberry juice and strong pina coladas, now i find them to sweet and can't beleive how others drink them.

I will definetly try the Sterling and hold you resposible if it taste bad...lol (*just kidding*)

Started 3/20/03 thru 9/2003
Restarted 1/2/04, this time i will finish what i started.

isn't Sterling the beer that comes in a cool little bottle like red stripe comes in? That's real good beer! I've had the regular and the light, and I wish I could find some more. I'm in south Arkansas, so we don't get much variety.

And Miller Lite always had something like 3.5 carbs a bottle, even before the low carb craze.

I believe Miller Lite has 3.2 grams. I also like to get Rolling Rock Green which is around 2 carbs ( I forget how many). It is cheaper and testes much better than Michelob IMHO (mic is 1.9 grams).

also try Thin Ice whish is only 1 gram.

Yep.. Rolling Rock Green Light is my beer now too. Mich Ultra was just too watery...

I'll look for this Sterling.

Still waiting to see if Thin Ice comes to my neck of the woods.

Coors (which I never liked..) is suppose to be testing a new LC beer (Aspen Edge...I think).

Also, there is some European company supposed to be coming out with one that "taste like a true European beer.." We shall see...Europe is a big place with lots of different beers...
