I need some serious ammunition to fire back with on this issue, and I need everyones help with me on this one. The owners' thought process has steadily been going in this direction for some time and this is one of those 'draw a line in the sand' moments.
They want to be able to offer a 'lighter' beer at lower price point 'for football season'.
The compromise I came up with was that I could brew a small beer from the last runnings of a Belgian Golden Strong, Blonde Barleywine or Imperial Pilsner or the like. With that I wouldn't feel so dirty all over as with a true light beer. But, they have given the impression that the 'lightness of flavor' and 'lower in calorie/carb' is the direction they want to go...*sigh*
Anyway, fellow brewers, lend me your wisdom, I need it now more than ever!
