Well, I am sorry I do not know the flavor of this much recommended Makers Mark. It has to be a scotch or a whiskey and I don't drink that. MGD is a slight step above drinking pee, but I like my beer with a little flavor and color and my spirits a little sweeter. Hard habits to skip. However, I do not drink alcohol outside my home, besides the odd glass of wine with dinner. I lost my license for drinking and driving when I was like 19 - 30+ years ago, and the sting of that experience has me not drinking alcohol outside the comforts of my own home - or at least the home of the day. At MV, I had my spirit of choice in the room, but a beer I can see through has never been a favorite of mine. So the much maligned Modelo in this thread - I wanted to defend - sorry I did not know I was "attacking" a newbie, just when someone threatens me in my home area, I will fight back. Modelo Negro to be more specific, Mr. Newbie ronshood2000, I sincerely apologize if I have in any way offended you. You did offend me when you dissed my favorite malt beverage. But then again, I am not a guy. Now my husband is probably not liking the statement either that a real guy does not drink a superior product that you are just at this time not familiar with. He likes Negro Modelo too. Maybe we need to get together and a little taste education is in order so we can be on the same ground.............. so to speak. I mean I am in DSP by my peers. What will happen to me if the mods see this. I may just be banned altogether.
