Rolling Rock.
Miller High Life.
Schaeffer. (sp?)
Heineken has begun to taste like soap.
But the worst of all: Budweiser.
The thing for me was they were mostly cheap and if they were seriously cold I didn't care that they tasted like horse piss.
These days I'm savoring cold Balboa Roja in bottles.

(5,555 posts)...the Alpha Beta on the corner sold BEER.
The cans were white with lite blue bands around the top and bottom and the word "BEER" in the middle.
Don't recall the price, but the 6-packs were very cheap.

(15,006 posts)You would also run into Old Milwaukee, Milwaukee's Worst (Best), and Dog Style (Old Style) in the dorm.
My personal cheap go-to was Pabst Blue Ribbon. It didn't make me cringe like those others did.
I refused to drink Shitz (Schlitz) or Pearl Light, and the absolute worst beer I ever tasted was an unholy abomination called Texas Pride.
