Live look 21 year old college dude's getting in line for a summer internship that consists of drinking Natty Light and posting on social media:
I mean you want to talk about a perfect summer internship, this is it right here. When I was 21 I spent summers drinking Natty Ice and posting on social media (MySpace) and I didn't get paid a dime.
Related: I flat out love this marketing campaign from Natural Light:
Tough year for Miller Lite so far. Bud Light taking shots across their bow for having corn syrup (which is bad?), and now Natty Light from the clouds firing barbs over their spelling of 'Light.' You hate to see it!

PS: My friends say that I have, what they affectionately call, 'scumbag' taste when it comes to beer. While they've graduated to drinking beers with a bunch of hops that have only been harvested by a woman named Helga in a remote village of Sweden, my tastes have stayed pretty much the same since I was in college. PBR is a go-to, Busch Latte's sit 1B. But given the new 'light' getting shined on Natural Light, I may have to start to work in this old college favorite. Which got got me to thinking, what are the best scumbag beers in the world. Without further adieu (ahem):
5. Natty Ice
I honestly drank WAY more of this in college than Natty Light. 5.9% alcohol content as opposed to 4.7% for the same price. That's just economics.
4. Icehouse
Pretty much the same principle as Natty Ice. Terrible tasting but got you to the poor-decision-making part of your night quickly.
3. Beast Ice/Regular/Light
Tasted like melted down dirty pennies but boy was it cheap!
2. Red Dog
My crew basically kept this beer alive in the summer of 2003. $10.99 for a Dirty 30, simply couldn't beat the price point. Now the slogan for Red Dog is; 'Uncommonly Smooth.' To which we added 'Yes, swallowing razor blades is, *technically*, uncommon.'
1. Classic Light
You either know this one or you don't. My college roommate and I stumbled upon these at a liquor store in Point. It cost $7.99 for a 30 pack. Read that again. I'm not sure if it even contained any elements of real food, but we couldn't get past how cheap it was. Might have been carbonated gasoline now that I think about it.
