I love the taste of beer. I also love coffee. but i don't drink decaf. same principle for beer. just having 1 or 2 beers relaxes you. even a small amount of alcohol has an effect. I can feel one beer, in fact I can feel the one I'm drinking right now.
non-alcoholic beer is for recovering alcoholics mainly
my tolerance is really low because I don't really drink during the summer. but when school starts up, it usually takes 6 non-light beers to be drunk. sometimes way more, depending on what I ate.
I don't drink light beer except sam adams light. ever since I stopped, I haven't puked at all. plus its flavorless and exists purely to get you drunk. favs include sierra nevada, blue moon, singha, magic hat 9, yuengling when I'm low on cash, PBR when I'm even lower on cash, and finally old e when I'm poor. least favorites include anything made by miller, stella, and becks.
those in my opinion are the best beers available at the grocery store. flying dog and dogfish head are great too, but those are smaller companies which aren't available everywhere. I'm a big IPA fan. if its bitter and hoppy send it my way
