willywhit Posted January 25, 2009 Report Share Posted January 25, 2009 Not a huge fan of Heinikin either, but I'll drink it. The best thing about heiniken though is that you can get it pretty much anywhere in the world.later, Dave R. true dat, I've got an old pic somewhere of Negril Jamaica, a 22oz Heinie in 1 hand and a phatty cold Red Stripe in the other, kickin it in a hammock at the Treehouse.

Pow Posted January 25, 2009 Report Share Posted January 25, 2009 i cant believe anyone hasnt mentioned natty ice yet:confused: natural ice is way worse than pbr, busch, keystone, you name it. its at the bottom of the cheap beers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dano Posted January 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2009 years ago dano found a liquor store in RI that had CASES upon cases of Breckenridge for like 7.99 a case, the stuff was definatly past it's prime but still drinkable. We'd stock up every time we rally'd down to Newport to surf.. > Yeah baybee Yeah, Those were Aged Avalanch Ales...leftovers from some previous year(s)... They were like russian roullete... you'd swill down 3 or 4 and they weren't THAT bad ( on ice ) but then you get one that tasted "ACTIVE"...like there was some algea arcade in there living large and crapping BIG... I drank a "real" Avalanche ale on tap at breck and it was actually pretty bland in comparison. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah "naturals" are about the worst..."teacher beer" my dad called them. ( he was a teacher ) Natty ice 5% is a guaranteed headache. Actually I do like "fresh and cold" pbr at a BBQ or clambake...It's just water. But hey, we all know cheap beer is piss. you get what you pay for. It's much worse to buy a rack of some microbrew for top dollar and have it taste like freaking ear wax...I got a Smuttynose sampler once and all I really liked was the Shoals Pale Ale.

willywhit Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 like those tommyknockers at Marty's in Newton with the closeout supa doopa discount ? http://www.tommyknocker.com/ourBeer.html#buttHead despite the stuff floating near the bottom, they were still drinkable. A few had a mild cider taste that resembled crappy homebrew. AND ya got a free glass with every 6 pack=SCORE ! did he say crap beers ? http://www.beeripedia.com/index.php/Breckenridge_Brewery_Avalanche_Ale <object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="437" height="322" id="viddler"><param name="movie" value="http://www.viddler.com/player/67e785aa/" /><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always" /><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="wmode" value="transparent"/><embed src="http://www.viddler.com/player/67e785aa/" width="437" height="322" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowScriptAccess="always" allowFullScreen="true" wmode="transparent" name="viddler" ></embed></object> C+ ? http://beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/759/2297 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack M Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 PBR. There, I said it. And Heineken. Unless you like skunky beer I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gecko Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 And Heineken. Unless you like skunky beer I guess. Heineken gives me a hangover while I'm drinking it....Stella Artois is the same way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack M Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 It's such a shame that Stella is most people's first impression of "Belgian" beer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gecko Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 I've tried a lot of different Belgian beers, almost all of them have made my head hurt, it's easier to drink wine in most of Europe anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willywhit Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 PBR. There, I said it.And Heineken. Unless you like skunky beer I guess. I saw some of the Hayes Bros crew rocking the PBR goggles( I think Scott makes them) VT Swillbillys at The US Open at Stratton back in 2004. they were all sportin' buffalo plaid shirts and leather work gloves to ride in, so stylie !

Jack M Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 I've tried a lot of different Belgian beers, almost all of them have made my head hurt, it's easier to drink wine in most of Europe anyway You need to try this then... As for PBR, I'm convinced the only people who drink it are either on a very tight budget, or have forced themselves to acquire a taste for it so they can rock the slum-chic look.

Gecko Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 I'm sure there are good Belian beers but at this point in my life I'm not gonna risk it...not when I can get a british/scotch/irish ale, not to mention my local Yankee ale and not pay the price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack M Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 come on, wimp. It's 6% and very drinkable. :p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strider Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 You guys post some drinkable beers compared to the cheap crap we've purchased for parties/roadtrips in the past. The worst of the bunch : Grainbelt, Pig's Eye, And one time, we bought 12 cases of something called Burger (had an umlaat above the u) at $5.99 a case for a weeklong canoe trip. Almost dumped it in the river but felt sorry for the fish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gecko Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 come on, wimp. It's 6% and very drinkable. :p it's not the strength of the beer that's the problem, something in the ingredients just doesn't agree with my head....I can't do wheat beers either thourgh I love the taste of them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyser Soze Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 Ouf, Red Cap, Schlitz, I think I remember having something called "True North" (the I could be mixing the brand up) that had a bacon aftertaste. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can handle an ice cold bud light when it's 90 and humid out but that's about it. I need a beer budget because my beer taste is to expensive for me own good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willywhit Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 Lucky Lager from Lucky's supermarket when we lived in Huntington Beach in Cali during a summer in College. pretty rank but cheap. http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=lucky+lager this Extreme Beer Fest should be in the Good Beer thread, I guess http://beeradvocate.com/fests/ebf I'll be in Brazil drinking cold yellow Skol and will have to miss it my dog likes PBR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Prokopiw Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 and our basement fridge has accumulated at least a case of bad tasting beers brought with the best intentions by our guests.Counted seven Bud lites I'll never touch,so that gets my vote as the worst.

Mellow Yellow Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 Skol - reminds me of the last time I was in Brazil... we tried to check a case on our flight from Rio to Sao Paulo. They lets us, however it did not show up on the other side :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
