Damn it. Bought an entire case of this. I thought I was getting the most excellent deal. They need to stop making those, that's just confusing people.

There's an old famous quote that goes "Of all sad words of tongue and pen, the saddest are these: 'It might have been.'"
That guy was wrong. There are sadder words.
And they are: "7 oz. Budweiser beer bottles."

They also need to stop selling NA beer.
I'll never forget the time i accidentally bought NA beer.
Can't remember the exact kind it was, but when i got home and started slamming brews and not catching a buzz, i looked at the label and it read "[BEER] N.A.".
After silently sobbing for 15 minutes, i went and bought a 12 pack of alcoholic beer and drank every one of them to make up for lost time and also as punishment.

Not really. Drink twice as many, naturally bc they're about half as big, and you'll end up drinking colder beer and more of it. Forget that it costs more and you only got 7/12 of what you expected and focus on the positives.

A 7 oz. beer is better than no beer.

My brothers always referred to those as "splits" for whatever reason.

Splits are those dinky champagne bottles that serve about a flute-and-a-third of the bubbly (1.875L for you metric-capable sort).
Small beer bottles might make sense for some big Belgian quadrupel or something, but this is a solid rant. Half size beers? Gag.
Regarding NA beers, I suppose it makes some sense for reformed beer drinkers to hold something that tastes vaguely like real beer in their hand so they feel alright at a bar with drinking friends. I guess. But what's with the dudes that order 5 Kalibers? Come on man. You aren't fooling anybody.

I know people that should stick to those little bottles.

I'm pretty sure if you read the box/case, it will indicate 7 oz or 12 oz bottles.

Besides, those are kids sized bottles.
