And if you don't want to sober up- even if you do, you will think you haven't if you listen.....
I almost posted some Procol Harum when you asked for some veterans, but I chose to go way back with some Vanilla Fudge. Here’s a little way back ditty for you.

This kinda sums up the 70’s for a bunch of us.

I'm 57, and you may have a good point about age.
I think that I've reverted back to my college days when we were drinking domestic beers every day, and the idea of microbreweries was in its infanthood. There were no sours except when one of the domestics had gone past its shelf life or maybe had impurities from the brewery and gone "skunky". Skunky beer was beer that we threw out - not one we would drink deliberately.

So anyway - yeah. I was already very comfortable drinking the domestic beers that were the thing back in the 70's and 80's when I first started enjoying beer. I'll still have a hoppy IPA once in a while with friends, but when we're out somewhere now I'll usually order a PBR, Bud, or Miller Lite rather than a microbrew. It's just enjoyable and drinkable, "cold beer" with no pretense. Somebody who's young enough to have started their beer journey in the age of microbreweries probably wouldn't have the same definition of bad beer that I do. Sours may not have developed into such a gag-worthy taste to them.
I'm not an IPA fan, that's for sure, but when it comes to enjoying good drinkable beer, I certainly wouldn't choose any of the big name domestic beers. I refer to them as piss beer.
I mean, compare a Bud or Miller to something like Fat Tire...Fat Tire wins hands down.
It's about the same difference as eating at Taco Bell or going to a nice authentic Mexican Restaurant.
Back in my Navy days I was a huge Miller Genuine Draft and Michelob Dark fan.
I never had a taste for domestic piss beer and couldn't ever understand why anyone would make them their go-to beer when there were always much better and tastier choices out there.
