I tried a different approach this weekend. I told 2 servers (Dave & Busters and Bennigan's) I was looking for a draft beer that wasn't Bud Light or one of its clones, so what have you got. The first server started with "Bud, Bud Light ..... sorry, force of habit. The second said Tee-hee, what do you like? I ended up with Sam Adams in a bottle in both places.

That leads to a new question ... Why do they take Boston Lager out and replace it with a seasonal? Is there not rooom for 2 Sam Adams products at the bar? The obvious answer is that there is insufficient demand for both. I'm not opposed to some of their seasonals, but my first choice is Boston Lager. SOL.
