Pabst or Old Milwaukee for Cheap beer

Next is Miller Lite.

Got Moose Drool (Big Sky Brewery, MT), Fat Squirrel (New Glarus Brewing, WI) and Leinenkugel's 1888 Bock on the fridge. That seasonal Leinies is freaking awesome.

Labatt Blue / light is the only cheap macro-brew I can drink without holding my breath.

Got Moose Drool (Big Sky Brewery, MT),



That's my winter beer, I live all of 200 yards from the brewery and know the brew master socially.  Good stuff, semi-nasty in the bottle.  Awesome in a keg or growler very cold.  It is not all that cheap though....

Nothing cheap about Yuengling.  It's awesome out of a tap and into a frosty beer mug!

Another vote for PBR.
I originally bought it as a joke for a non-PC party where PBR, Spam and Twinkies were not only the decor but the fare.  Turns out I still don't like Spam but the PBR was drinkable.  Not a bad deal for beer under a buck a can.

I have yet to find any beer that I actually like.  To be fair, I haven't really tried a whole lot of different brands, but still...

Boulevard Lunar Ale   $6.99 a six is pretty cheap to me.
My other everyday drinker is New Castle Brown Ale  usually about $13.99 a 12
I just won't drink if I'm offered bud or other similar equivalents.

Oh I know. I just can't drink anything cheaper than Yuengling so its my cheap beer..

Haven't had it in awhile though. Doesn't make sense to get a keg of Yuengling at around $100 when I can get microbrew down the street for $114.

Ballantine Ale- $4.99 a six pack. It's a pretty good pale ale, and the cheapest thing I buy. Usually, unless I brew my own, I've been sticking to Sam Adams Boston Ale lately. Good stuff, but not what I'd call cheap. To me, most mass produced American beer tastes like colored water.

Life's too short to drink bad beer.  I'll take tap water over Bud/Coors/MGD/PBR/etc.

I needed a mod to change my signature because the concept of "family friendly" eludes me.
Just noticed that a mod changed my signature. How long ago was that?

Steel Reserve. Drink a couple real fast and you don't know what it tastes like anyway. =D

Not sure if you can find it outside of PA, but Lionshead is pretty damn good for only 12.98 for 24 bottles.
