I've always wondered this, but what is the difference between BL and NL? EdWort Well-Known Member. Bud is the premium and thus the use of Clydesdale's, and NL is budget, so they just use old brood mares. My Junk is Ugly Lifetime Supporter. Louis, MO. I don't know much, but I do know this. Best freinds brother is director of marketing for Bud at AB and the common knowledge around the brewery is that Natural Light is the best beer for the money coming out of Peskalosi Street breweries address.

It would be too expensive to have an entirely seperate setup for a less expensive beer. To this day, I'll fill my fridge with Natty over anything else on the shelves when forced to stock BMC. I've always thought Natty was smoother than BL. When camping etc, I thought that it went down a helluva lot easier than BL even after it had warmed a bit. Yeah sad to say, if given a choice I'd take a Natty over BL on a hot lawnmower day, if there wasn't a nice Hefe or Kolsch being provided mind you.

There is something different about them. Bud Light makes my stomach turn into goo the next morning. I never had the problem with Natty Light. My go to has always been PBR though. Beerrific Well-Known Member. I have always wondered about this too. What about Busch Light? Funny though, you go into a nice up-scale restaurant and order a BL and you are served promptly, order a NL and they will look at you funny.

That's the difference. Beerrific said:. This is my version of a lite BMC An Edward FortyHands party is a great way to enjoy some macro-lager In my college days I've bought several kegs of Natty Lite and I can say it tasted very good out fo the tap as compared to anything budweiser like.

Also, with the price of corn going up, they've been feeding the Clydesdales less corn and more grass. The old brood mares have always just been grass. The taste difference is subtle but it's there.

Danny Well-Known Member. I think for Edward forty hands you have to have a 40 strapped to each hand! Sissy chicks! Anyway, back on-topic - natty tastes like water to me, while BL is almost water. I'd rather not have either. Luckily most places have Amber Bock on tap for the same price which is at least semi-drinkable.

I've also noticed that my stomach feels nasty the day after drinking BMC. I can go out and have a pitcher or two of quality brew and feel fine the next day with a slight headache , but when I do the same with BMC I feel like crap and have the worst nausea. The other night I went out and had a pitcher or bud light with some friends, wasn't even drunk at all - slightly buzzed, and the next morning I felt terrible.

I wonder Anyway, I'll take Yuengling for a good cheap brew. MriswitH Well-Known Member. I didn't know that about BL and NL; neat. I can tell you though, that Busch also gave me the most intense hangover of my life as well. I felt nautious and weird the whole next day, not to mention the atrocious headache. When I toured Miller though, they claimed that Miller Light and Beast Light were the same beer, but marketed different.

Buford Well-Known Member. It's just the post processing that's different cold filtration vs. Other macros are blends of two different base beers that themselves are marketed as different brands. Get the Insider App.

Irene Jiang. Luckily for them, our team of Business Insider reporters bit the bottlecap to find the very best cheap beer. Five cups were laid out for each reporter. But the reporters were not told which beer was in which cup.

Unbeknownst to them, the first beer they were to try was Bud Light. After tasting all the beers, two drinkers chose Bud Light as their favorite beer. Retail correspondent Kate Taylor chose Bud Light as her favorite, saying that it was "watery and chuggable". Visual features reporter Brittany Chang also commented that beer one was "watery and chuggable.

However, that wasn't a positive for her. She disliked the fact that "the taste went away almost immediately". Other taste testers noted a distinctly wheaty aftertaste when compared against the other beers. The consensus: Bud Light is, well, light. It's chuggable and inoffensive, and people either loved or hated that. The next mystery beer in taste testers' cups was Coors Light. Three alcohol aficionados chose cup two, Coors Light, as their favorite beer.

However, all of them chose to remain anonymous. One taster detected metallic and fruity notes, saying that cup two had a longer-lasting taste than cup one. Another taster said that this beer almost tasted like seltzer water upon first sip, noting that it tasted less substantial than cup one.

Oddly enough, those who didn't choose Coors as their favorite ranked it pretty low compared to the other beers. The consensus was that cup two, Coors, didn't taste much different from cup one. In fact, it hardly tasted like anything at all. The next mystery beer on the table was Miller High Life. Miller High Life is advertised as the "champagne of beers". But does it live up to the fancy title?
