When I was a kid, my dad's beer was Old Milwaukee. Now he mostly drinks Bud Light. (See where this is going?)
I tried to get him to buy Corona last time I went home--an idea which was adamantly shot down. Recently, my parents were on a business trip, and my mom mentioned on the phone that the place where they were eating had a wide variety of available beers. I suggested he try Pacifco Clara, and upon the urging of my mother, I'm sure (I can hear it: "Travis said it was good, just try it."), he actually did. I haven't heard if he liked it or not, but regardless, this is good progress.
My dad doesn't drink beer to get drunk, my dad drinks beer to have a beer, and Bud/Coors/Miller/Busch Light is made for drunkenness, not for taste. If he wants rice in his beer (!) I'll bring him Sapporo.
