If I was going for sophisticated, adventure-lover I might show up with Dos Equis instead. And most everyone in America would understand.

Beer is a bad example these days because microbrews have taken over and the consensus has become fractured: Moose Drool is big where I live, but it likely doesn't exist where you are. Buying a macro means you're out-of-touch, no matter what kinds of ads InBev is putting out for it these days.

I realize this is going way off topic but I’m seeing the opposite: I have dozens of $20+ beer bottles in the basement and occasionally like a little fresh IPA but by volume I drink way more Modelo or other lager. Doing anything because everybody else is means... something, showing up with a case of miller lite says you DGAF and the genuinely interesting people seem to notice.
