It won't confuse me. I just don't understand why anyone drinks lite beer cause it can't be cause of the taste.

Lite beer is everywhere. I just don't understand the love of it. That's all I am getting at. Maybe it's an older generation thing or an American thing. I just don't see the point in drinking a lite beer just so I can drink more of them. Don't you want to drink something that tastes good? On average I usually drink maybe 6 to 8 high end beers on gameday.

It must be an American thing cause in Canada lite beer seems to only popular with the older crowd. The younger generation will drink Canadian or Alexander Keith's at a party or tailgating.

Maybe it's an an American thing. Cause light beer isn't as big up here except with the older generation. Any time I have extended drinking here is done with Canadian or Bud. I don't sip slowly on good beer til it turns warm. If I am going to be drinking for a period of time I prefer something that at least tastes good. Light beer is any less alcoholic then a Yuengling and that tastes better. Unless of course you worry about calories.

Hate to break it to you but I have been legally allowed to drink for 25 years now. I have never like Blue or Genny. Yeungling is my go to if I am tailgating or at a party. Goes down easy and is good tasting. Cheap is what Genny and Blue taste like. There is much better local stuff then either one of those two. Big Ditch or Ellicottville is far better tasting.

Which is not a bad thing. A lot of micro brews are really good. Seeing some of the big brews slowly die down is a good thing. Light and bland tasting beer will be a thing of the past soon. Having a Blue Collar Identity is fine, what bugs me is how people want the Bills and Sabres to represent that. The fanbase can't stand talented me first kind of players that usually put your team over the top. Look at when the Bills were trying to get Antonio Brown and how a lot of Bills fans don't want a "DIVA" like that on my team. The older Bills fanbase needs to live in the now and stop trying to keep things like they were in the past.

It may that all over the country they drink light beer. As far as Blue goes I see it advertised more in WNY then a lot of other states that I have been too. When I go to Sabres games its one of the ones that's always on tap. I have gone to other stadiums and its not as easy to find on tap. They may not have Genny Cream but I am sure there is Genny of some kind there. As far as all I post about is beer. Its not true. I just enjoy a good beer, even at Bills or Sabres games. Give me Saranac or Big Ditch over Blue light. I prefer something that doesn't taste like tap water. I don't need a beer that goes down in 10 mins and be hammered by the time the game starts.

I have always wondered why Buffalo loves the Blue Collar identity and their love of beers like Blue and Genny? There is far better beers out there then either of them. Give me Ellicottville or Saranac over either.

I'm not salty. I am just wondering why WNY loves the Blue Collar Identity and their Blue Genny Cream, when their is better beer out there

^this guy ?. Then give me Ellicottville beer over any of those.

There is nothing wrong with that. When I go to Sabres games I hit up one of the bars for some food and a couple of drinks then head to the game.

No but getting away from the Blue Collar identity would go a long way. Pricing the fans that just show up to party would go a long way. Better food would help too. Nothing wrong with having better beer too.

I disagree. Blue and Genny taste like water. Give me Yeungling or Sam Adams over those any day. People of Buffalo need to get over the Blue Collar image they so love. Nothing screams blue collar then Genny Cream.

I'm surprised so many of you get drunk on Blue or Genny. The alcohol or taste is a lot like tap water.

Maybe but now anytime anyone says anything bad about Allen or don't look at him as the saviour at QB, the response they get is "^this guy ?. Its almost like all fans must Billieve in Allen or your not a fan of DEM BILLS.

How many Americans have passports? Do they not want to leave their country?

Yeah. According to you it's all sunshine and roses. Gotta be a big homer. Everything DEM BILLS do is great.

It seems majority of the fanbase that post here believe prices that high would price them out. IMO raising season tickets to that price would make it so they can get a better stadium downtown with a domed roof. A new stadium means limited tailgating and on Bills lots. No more private lots like Hammers, which will limit some of the crazy drunks. A new stadium with lots of craft brews and better food would be a good start. WNY needs to get away from their love of bad cheap beer like Blue and Genny.

I have never seen a fanbase so upset by getting a new stadium. I would love to see one built like the one the Browns play in. From what I have seen of it, it looks really nice and probably has amenities like their baseball stadium. Almost all the Cleveland area craft brews have a booth. WNY needs to get over loving their game day brews of Blue and Genny. Two of the worst beers ever. A new domed stadium downtown is probably what's going to happen. Limit tailgating to Bills owned lots, aka no more Hammers lot, to generate more revenue and get people to spend more money in the stadium. I know a lot of you here don't want that but the team also wants to draw more family oriented people and limit the amount of drunks at games.

^ this guy. ?

I can't stand most pilsners. Canadian and Blue are the absolute worst. Even Bud I don't like much.

Honest question. I have always wondered why most americans like their light beers or beers like Blue. For me I like a good tasting beer over a Genny light or Genny Cream. Give me an IPA or an Amber Ale instead.

Yuck. Light beer is awful. I am enjoying a nice can of Creemore premium lager that has 208 calories. If I am drinking beer calories is the last thing I think about.

Im surprised this thread isn't dominated more by the WNY favourites of Genny Cream, Genny light and Labbats Blue. My favorite right now is Sam Adams summer ale. Goes down really easy.

You could say the same about most hockey players except that most NHL players play through some kind of injury through the entire playoffs. Erik Karlsson of the Sharks played all playoffs with a groin tear and Chara is playing with is jaw wired shut. Hockey players are tougher then basketball players and a lot of football players when it comes to playing through injuries.
