What's the WORST beer you've ever drank??

[SmileyBoy]

We haven't had one of these threads in a long time, so I'll start:

Bud Light. It tasted like watery piss.

[Fenris]

1. Coors "Banquet Beer"

[Midnight Rambler]

2. Natural Light

Fratboy beer. Makes Budweiser taste like fine wine.

[autorank]

3. "Billy Beer" - spat it out, threw out all cans. Just awful beyond words.

Named after Jimmy Carter's brother, Billy, the loser brother. When he wasn't taking money from Lybia, Billy started a beer company (since he was a known party animal). It stunk.

[Reverend_Smitty]

4. The Beast aka Milwaukee's Best

a mainstay at college parties. The only good thing I can say about it is that it gets you drunk!

[Nevernose]

15. Milwaukee's Beast

By far the worst experience of my entire life (and that's really saying something).

[punpirate]

5. Primo, in Hawaii...

... in the `60s. Locals told me, when I spit the stuff out, "hey, dat good stuff--it was really bad before Schlitz bought them out."

[ScreamingMeemie]

50. Hah! I have a Primo t-shirt. My father worked for Schlitz and got an

all expense paid trip to Hawaii (and free tshirts).


And, FWIW there was a year when Primo was actually the best selling beer in the country...per capita. Crazy, no?

[punpirate]

81. No...

... not when considering the stories about how much the 29th Inf (Hawaii Nat'l Guard) drank on guard weekends. One guy told me (after they'd been pulled out of Vietnam), "ooh, yah, we get our asses kicked, but, brudda, it was all our fault. Every drill weekend, first thing we do is set up the beer tent and fill it up wit' Primo. Stayed full all weekend. Lots of beer runs."

:)

[mojavekid]

6. My own,

brewed in a sparklett's bottle in my friends basement when we were fifteen...:puke:

[Straight Shooter]

7. Pabst Blue Ribbon.

Either that or Miller Lite. Phew.

[malta blue]

8. black label

[two gun sid]

9. Royal Guard? In Chile.

[CatholicEdHead]

10. St. Paul Summit beer

and of course Miller Lite, Bud Lite, and Coors Lite.

[maveric]

11. Gennsee Creme Ale. Used to be 99cents a 6 pack circa 1974.

And worth every penny of it IMA!

[Kathy in Cambridge]

13. I remember that swill!

:puke:

[maveric]

25. We would scrape our pennies together and pick up a couple six-packs of...

that vile shit.

Hey Kathy, I was in Cambridge the other day. Was back to bury my Ma in Lawrence.

[Kathy in Cambridge]

53. I know-I saw your post about your uncle

:-(

I'm so sorry.

[kodi]

12. iron city. it tastes like weasel spit strained thru dirty cobwebs

i used to keep it around the house just to give to guests whom i wanted to leave my premises.

[Coastie for Truth]

31. I like IC

Yins must be one of them fancy Rolling Rock dudes from Ligonier. I may be ignernt, and a Steeler fan (from the old Forbes Field days) and a Pirates fan (from the old Forbes Field days) - I had my first Iron at Frankie Gustines - with some real Arsenal Kolbassi.

(During the summers when I worked in "The Mill" - Homestead Works -- we used to run across 8th Avenue for an Iron and two sausages).

Man, Iron City, and Arsenal Kolbassi, and Steelers, and Pirates, and watchin them Panthers and Dukes and Tartans, and having Isaly's Chipped Chopped Ham, and listening to Rege Cordic in the AM - life don't get no better.

Actually, my Thermo prof got me onto Guiness Stout my senior year.

[JVS]

78. Ahrn rules!

[El Fuego]

14. Heineken. It literally STINKS.

Give me a Bud Light anyday! It's watery--like a refreshing mountain stream! I wouldn't know what watery piss tastes like. Have to trust you on this one.

[Misunderestimator]

24. Heineken isn't great, but it's a hell of a lot better than Bud.

:P

[El Fuego]

36. Better than Bud maybe, but Bud Light rules! :) I like water!

I'm not a big beer person, but when I'm not drinking Bud Light, I love WARSTEINER. :beer:

[Misunderestimator]

40. Oh, I like Warsteiner too.

:thumbsup: Good, inexpensive (relatively) German beer.

[BlueManDude]

16. Bud Light is the worst beer ever made.

Why do so many Yahoos drink it?

[Lady Effingbroke]

"BEER"

[ronzo]

68. Ah, generics...

I know Miller brewed one.

[SmileyBoy]

69. Oh hell yeah!!! Generic black and white beer!!!

:puke:

[BlueManDude]

17. Bud Light also has a soapy taste to it.

[Goathead]

18. Busch

Actually I once drank a Busch that somebody had put a cigarette butt in.:puke:

[GOPisEvil]

19. Coors Light

That was some rancid-tasting crap. *shudder*

[Misunderestimator]

21. Jinx

:hi:

[GOPisEvil]

Pinch, poke you owe me coke!

:hi:

[Misunderestimator]

20. Coors Light, even worse...

:puke: I can't take any big American brand beer... it all tastes like piss, except for Sam Adams.

[khashka]

22. Pretty much any American beer

Horse piss, with alcohol. I'm pretty sure I'm smart enough to find an alcoholic horse - if I wanted to.

But who cares about worst beers - lets talk about the good ones.

Guinness - always and forever.

Good American beer -

Sam Adams.

Dixie in Lousianna does great beer. Their Black Voodoo is actually better than sex. But it's very regional and not distributed widely.

Khash.

[Misunderestimator]

26. YES

Guinness is my all-time favorite... I've tried just about everything, but I always go back to Guinness. I had a refrigerator that I converted to a kegerator, and I always kept Sam Adams lager in it (I couldn't get Guinness in a half-keg for a reasonable price where I was). I miss my kegerator. :hi:

[khashka]

45. The two best of all time

Guinness and Sam Adams lager.

I think I have a crush on you... or maybe it's just the beer talking.

Khash.

[Misunderestimator]

59. It's definitely the beer talking...

I don't think I have the right equipment for you :) But I'd definitely kick back a few beers with ya! :hi:

[izzybeans]

37. I could go for a Rogue Bitter right about now.

better than sex? I must find this Black Voodoo.

[khashka]

47. Yeah

A few things (a very few) are better than sex and Black Voodoo is one of 'em. Next time I get hold of a bottle I'll send it to you...

Khash.

[izzybeans]

62. Thanks

:yourock:

[flamingyouth]

23. Falstaff. Out of a keg at the Beta house at the UW, 1986.

:puke:

[MAlibdem]

27. as a college student, i feel myself an expert- Miller High Life

busch is not great...

i dont know what all this coors light hating is about, except for the political connections, a very palpatable cheap beer.

Miller High Life is the MOST DISGUSTING SHIT EVER! "The champagne of beers my ass" more like the perpetually skunked piece of shit beer

[phaseolus]

28. Rolling Rock

I know, it's a cult beer for some, but I really can't stand the stuff.

[Coastie for Truth]

38. Rolling Rock is only a cult beer

for the Ligonier Shadyside Academy grads at Washington and Jefferson. Us Pitt and Tech and Duquesne workin' folk never liked Rolling Rock. We pumped Iron.

[Taverner]

29. Cuban Cristal Beer

Bad beer brewed under socialism. Yuk.

[GOPisEvil]

34. Peruvian Cristal is pretty good though.

[izzybeans]

30. Miller Coors and Bud are all pretty piss-watery

But I think Sol pretty much takes the cake. I swear I must of pissed in the bottle before I drank it. It didn't even taste diluted like the American versions of alcohol flavored water.

On the opposite end I think XXXX Australian for real beer is pretty damn disgusting as well. "Please don't twist the top off a 4Xer mate. I'd reckon a Victoria Bitter instead. Hoy?"

[Rick Myers]

32. Bud Light is about the bottom!!!

Natural right behind it!!!

Ack!!!

[blue neen]

33. Iron City, without a doubt.

Nice and warm from a frat party keg. No wonder I threw up every time I drank in college.

[Coastie for Truth]

42. See post 31.

Us guys from the 'Burgh started out with Iron City. Rege Cordic said it was made by the same company that made the work shoes -- "Iron City Work Shoes - Wear Like Iron."

[blue neen]

54. I remember Rege Cordic!

And Clark Race, too!

[izzybeans]

35. Oh I forgot about the export lite

I think a Miller product. Once found a liquor store that loaded up on some near out of date stuff. They began selling it for four dollars a case of bottles. So in college you know it was a case a night for the roomies. I poored everclear in my water bottled and found that to be more pleasing.

[Zero Division]

39. An Italian beer, Peroni

A great import for those who like lightly beer-flavored water.

[GOPisEvil]

43. Hmmm...I kinda like Peroni.

Diff'rent strokes, I guess...

[Zero Division]

48. Well, I only had it once.

I drank it at my favorite little bar/restaurant in Iowa City, where I'm normally accustomed to drinking a variety of full-flavored beers. I was really surprised by just how watery it was.

[GOPisEvil]

49. It does have a light feel to it.

But then, I like light, crisp beer. It goes well with Italian food, not surprisingly.

[Dukkha]

41. does Malt liquor count?

In that case Mickey's. A unique cocktail of battery acid and pickle juice with a little scent of ass for flavor. :puke:

When I was a bike messenger in SF many of my co-workers drank King Cobra like it was going out of style. they ususally reeked too!

Once we mixed Olde English with Orange juice. It actually wasn't too bad.

[Bok_Tukalo]

44. Falls City Light

95 cents a six pack.

THE quarters beer at the 101st Airborne PSC barracks in 1986 (getting drunk till 3:00 am and getting up at 6:00 am to run a few miles was a hard-dick GI contest).

20 and some change would get you five cases and a couple packs of generic cigarettes.

[marions ghost]

46. Bud lite is

grotesque. As bad as it gets.

[solinvictus]

51. About anything brewed by Anheuser-Busch..

Their beers are like making love in a canoe: they're fucking close to water! (line credit to Eric Idle)

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

52. Budweiser anything

ugh

[GOPisEvil]

55. And just how do you know?!

Hmmmm?! *taps foot*

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

56. um um um

:runs away:

[GOPisEvil]

58. Sigh...just be careful, OK?

At least you have good taste in beer.

:-)

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

61. Okay, GRAMPS

I don't drink really too often at all

[GOPisEvil]

63. Gramps!

Don't make me throw my walker at you! :P

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

64. mwahahah

Your arthritis wouldn't allow you to throw it at me! :evilgrin:

[last_texas_dem]

57. They pretty much all taste like piss to me

:-)

[SmileyBoy]

65. Me too. I hate beer.

:D

[MrSandman]

60. Falstaff...nt

[lpbk2713]

66. Some local beers that I drank in Spain

weren't fit for human consumption. The only brand name I can think of right now is Mahou. Cruzcampo was another one. San Miguel was minimally tolerable if you could build up a taste for it in time.

[BlackVelvetElvis]

67. Hatuey - some nasty Cuban beer

Tasted like gasoline.

[Arkana]

70. St. Pauli Girl...God, this stuff tastes like dog piss with sugar.

[maveric]

71. Corona is pretty bad too. Watery with a splash of urine.

I once drank 9 of them at a party and didnt even get a buzz.
Overrated!

[tyedyeto]

72. Any Coors product.......

is like panther piss.

[Danmel]

73. Carling Balck Label

There are no words:puke:

[NV Whino]

74. Budwiser

But then there's Olympia. When they say "It's the water," they mean it.

[EstimatedProphet]

75. Blatz/Red White &Blue/Wiedeman's-any of those

Never trust beer that costs $5 per case of longnecks.

[Ron Green]

76. Jax. n/t

[alfredo]

77. A tie between Schlitz and Melotti.

Melotti made from Antelope piss



BTW, they made a drink called Zibib. That was their ouzo.

[JVS]

79. Laser, the heinous malt liquor of the future

Only beer I ever had to pour out. It was fucking awful

[JVS]

80. Oh, I forgot about budweiser.

When I got back from Germany, one of the first beers I had was a Budweiser. It actually hurt my stomach to drink that crap.
