Bud Light Platinum

Beer Discussion by FRETWALKER

BeerPal Notice: This topic was created for discussion of the beer Bud Light Platinum. No, I didn't try it... I try to limit my masochism to traditional whips & chains [:0] Just had a conversation with a local bar owner, who told me he's served four Platinums so far, to regular Bud Light drinkers. None of them finished it, with comments ranging from "flat" to "too strong!" If Bud Light drinkers won't drink it, and WE sure as hell won't drink it, then... [xx(][8][xx(][8][xx(]

I would be willing to help with that experiment. Rate Bud Light Platinum three times to see how environment influences sensory perception: (a) at home alone; (b) in a crowed singles bar; (c) during a lap dance at the Platinum Palomino.

Bud just needs to come out with "It'll get you drunk, faster than Bud or Bud Light", I'm willing to bet it'll take off!

Begs the age old question - what's worse? Beer that tastes shitty or beer that tasted like carbonated malt water? I'm torn. More times than not, I'd prefer no/little taste to stronger shyte flavor, though.

I have not tried it but a brewer I know said it was to tap into that distillary crowd. That is why the bottle is SKYY blue and that is why it's triple filtered so that morons who are easily fooled by something like triple hops brewed, can also be fooled into thinking something like if it's triple filtered then that means its triple distilled.[}:)] Anyway triple filtered means to me, filtered twice to get out the sediment and the third time to make sure there's no flavor left in it.[;)]

Gotta be little or no taste IMO, I'd rather do keg stands with Bud Light than drink one Platinum again. It makes Bud Ice looks pretty good! [xx(]

Agreed. I can drink swill. I cannot drink a drainpour.

I tried this, at the offer from my younger brother - I was drinking a local micro-brew (Abitta, in Louisiana) and though - 6%? Really??? I am having a drink at 7%. And I am drinking at 9%. This is for limp wrested pansies that either have no taste or don't know better and need to be educated..... I will suffer a Killians before I drink this swill......
