It was funny, but this "beer war" is also getting a bit tiresome.

I like your pic better Green, Guiness commercials are still better and a better beer.

I always liked the Amstel Light "we're from Amsterdam and we didn't know light beer was supposed to suck" commercials.

miller really needs a new ad agency. every single campaign they try is one-upped by bud a few months later. or alternatively, they could stop trying to attack bud with every one of their ads. i haven't seen any figures, but i don't know anyone personally who has been persuaded to switch to miller because of these commercials.

also, what the hell does "more flavor" mean? i notice that they never say anybody says miller beers taste better, just that they have "more flavor". i'd say that raw sewage probably has more flavor than water, but would i rather drink raw sewage?

on topic, i saw these new bud commercials with the sound off and i still thought they were much better and less annoying than any of the miller ref commercials.

bud definately has the better commercials, but miller is the better beer so it doesn't really matter how clever they are

I wonder how many people choose Bud just because of Dale Earnhardt Jr. and the snappy commercials?

I dont understand how Miller can use thier logo onthier commercials to rip on them. Like in TV shows when they are dinking cola-cola, or Peppi, instead of the actual company product name on the can. How is this allowed, and yes I wish the beer war will end.

I hated Busch beer for the most part, but do remember regular Busch freshman year. Also Beast Ice was commonplace in a trash can of ice and cans with Beast Lite at many frat parties. And National Bohemian Beer from the Land of Pleasant Living. That was commonplace as well. And I still often see that around. From time to time.

my thing is who are they advertising to???

people already know which beer is their favorite ... a funny commericial is going to change it?? ... although i'm sure there are people who have no life and look to TV to make choices for them

i agree with the more flavor thing ... people like bud light because it has less flavor... so what??


bring back spuds!!!
