Paulaner Original Munich

Paulaner Original Munich

I'm not usually a fan of this type of beer, but I decided to try one since I was so impressed wtih their Hefeweizen a few weeks ago. This beer tastes OK but it's just what the bottle says it is... a premium lager. What does that mean in general terms? It's a beer from the BudMillerCoors genre, but it's actually quite nicer than most of the brews you will find in your local convenient store coolers. The Paulaner Original Munich is light, crisp, and easy to drink, but as defined by its style, it's not a very rich and/or hearty brew.  Can we call it "Designer Budweiser" and leave it at that?  It's not bad beer at all, but it isn't one that I'll re-visit in the future...
