          Monty Python? BTW I really used to like Newcastle Brown Ale. Then they were bought out by some Holland outfit, and then sold again. Last I heard it was brewed in Chicago and Los Angeles. Thinking about the water they used there kindly put me off it. Not seen it in the whiskey store in a spell either.

          Went by the local whiskey store yesterday morning. Bought the last case they had on hand of Yuengling B&T. Course this is the Arkansas Delta and Trump carried Arkansas by a wide margin in 2020. Anyhow, the manager said they used to get about 6 pallets of Bud Light in every week, but after April 10 they'd only sold a 30 pack. Said Coors, and Miller Lite are up @ 65%.

                That was guess - been a spell. One of my favorites was when they brought up the Holy Hand Grenade.

                    "Have always liked the scuppernong taste present in Miller beers especially the draft which I don't think is available any longer."

                    I'm curious about the " scuppernong taste ".

                    I usually describe the Miller taste as like a hint of walnut aftertaste. I drink Miller every now and then. And I'm pretty sure I have seen Miller Genuine Draft in the bottle in a store just recently. I'll buy it the next time I see it. It has been a while since I have had a Genuine Draft.

                      If you're familiar with the taste of scuppernong grapes they have a unique taste to them, sort of a "bite". I don't know if any actual scuppernongs are used in the making of Miller. I doubt it, but I taste a wine like flavor. I'm not the only one who has noticed this. Some call it a sweetness or taste of sweet corn. For some reason I only buy beer in the cans (red neck?). Psychologically it seems to get colder in the cans. I haven't looked for it in the bottles. I suppose living all my life beside a state hwy and cutting grass with a tractor/bush hog my family has suffered enough punctured tractor tires caused by littering of beer bottles to turn me off to them.

                      I will look for the draft in bottles now. Thanks

                        I have noticed the sweet taste also, it has what I would call a full bodied taste. I'm not at all familiar with that wine grape, I need to expand my horizons.
                        I didn't find any Draft at this store, but there was 12 packs of 16oz. cans at 11.99. That is like a 15 pack, 12 packs of bottles were the same.

                          I think scuppernong grapes grow mainly here in the South. We have nearby vineyards that make wine from them (sold at WM too). I buy the Miller Lite in the 24 pk (suitcase) at WM for around $22 or so. Will look for the draft in the bottles next time I go.
