Cheap Beer

I'm jealous of your cheap beer prices in the states...

The cheapest beer I can get here is PBR and it's $11.99/12 cans plus tax & deposit

If I'm lucky I can get Coors Light for $21.99/24 bottles (plus t&d)

So yeah, if I'm going cheap it's generally Coors Light or PBR

I just saw your new location. That really sucks. Yuengling is only east coast, and they don't plan on increasing duistribution anytime soon...

Forgive my ignorance, but how do you work for the Navy in AZ?

What, no love for some 211? Steel Reserve! By far my fav ghetto malt liquor...had to quit that though. Kinda miss it sometimes.

Another lifetime ago, we used to chase shots of cheap vodka with cans of 211. I don't miss those hangovers...

When I wsa in Quebec this summer we found this 6-pack of this awesome stuff. It was called Wildcat and it tasted like absolutely nothing, even after it warmed up a little, it also still worked quickly enough for our uses. Great stuff (for a cheap beer anyways).

+1 on the homebrew. Natty price, micro quality.

on the cheap its PBR with an old crow back, (If you've never had Old Crow, then you've never accidentally sprayed hairspray in to your mouth),
the last time i drank them together it hurt to pee the next morning; was it the beer? maybe... or the dime store whiskey? possibly. god i hope it was the combo and not something else!

Well, you could recruit or their is Yuma but I just did it the easy way and got out.

I always love a cold Miller High Life, maybe I'm biased because its made right here in Milwaukee. But I have started a dangerous path towards Trappist Ales potent and delicious.

I use to drink Old English in high school..... malt liquor.... but now my tastes are more refined and I mostly drink Belgium Trappist ales like Chimay,Orval,Rochefort and Abbey ales like Duvel,Leffe, and Affligem....mmmmm.....to the fridge I go.......

I have a bottle of Affligem in the fridge but have not tried it yet.

Life is far too short to drink cheap beer. I implore you please, PLEASE start your foray into better beer. Hell, you can get started homebrewing for pretty cheap these days. If you can boil water you can make beer.

This. God, THIS.

Just ordered another batch of ingredients this morning. My wife's boss wants to learn how to boil water to make beer. He says he likes hoppy beers, but not dark beers. So we're gonna have an experiment, on his dime. Either way, I get beer.

That being said, I have been known to enjoy the heck out of an ice cold original Coors in a can on a hot summer day.

Natty Lite for a watery lite summer beer, and Steel Reserve for a good cheap river beer.

Used to dig on Icehouse when I was a far poorer man...seems I don't see it as well distributed now, too.

I'm a typical American and prefer it as ice cold as possible, even been known to use coarse kosher salt in an ice/water bucket to bring down the temperature a couple of degrees.

Without a doubt...Pabst's Blue Ribbon, in a bottle, but cans will do the trick too!

Hey, when I finish mowing the lawn, I don't want a Tripel. I'll drink Big Hoppy Monster or Ommegang or St. Bernardus and love every minute, but there is a time and place for cheap beer: Fishing being the most notable (but I haven't been fishing in years since my grandfather sold his boat), but tailgating at home games in August and September (and sometimes October) a close second.

jeffb said:

I love good beer (Duvel, La Chouffe, Dulle Teve, etc) but I'm not too proud to put back some cheap stuff at the lake or when tailgating (Busch light, Bud select, or Coors light). As much as I love the good stuff, they just aren't meant for the lake.
