One compelling reason to avoid Coors is that they manufacture
an excrable product, and have the gall to market it as "beer".
Why they don't get prosecuted under the truth-in-advertising laws
is beyond me.

The absolute antithesis of beer.  "Swill" is too complimentary.

   "See that big ol' bear lapping up that cool clear mountain water?
    Makes a big hairy guy like you thirsty, doesn't it?

    Well, when I feel that way, I like to wrap my lips around the
    tall sweaty head of a Bear Whiz Beer.

    Like my Daddy used to say, 'See, son, it's in the water.
                                That's why it's yellow.' "
