Is yours on the list? "The Worst Beer in the World"

[rbV5]

haha, No!

Ninjahedge said it best:


No. I drink beer to enjoy it. That is not possible with Milwaukee's Best or Old Milwaukee, or anything on that list. Sure, if all you care about it getting drunk, those things will work, but my god, the taste is awful.

Have you HAD king cobra? It's impossible to not enjoy. It's impossible not to chug it after the first sip in pure unabated joy.

Good Lord, this looks like crap just like the "Big Bear" malt liquor my wife bought me as a joke:

KING COBRA! wtf?? That is by far one of the smoothest tastiest beers I've ever had in my life. Are you sure this isn't a joke list??

Is this a joke post?

:hmm:

 

[zinfamous]

Also...what kind of self respecting shitty beer list doesn't have Steel Reserve or Lacrosse Lager on it?

Shitty beer is like a guilty indulgence to me. It's like eating potato chips or cheetohs. They aren't gormet food by any means. But at some times they just hit the spot.

yeah, surprised to not see Steel Reserve. I mean, it's almost insulting for the Steel Reserve aficionados to not be included on that list.

I went through a brief malt liquor phase, going between SR, OE, King Cobra. They are all horrible, though I probably prefer OE.

:hmm:

 

[zinfamous]

And surprising. I've never understood why people think Yeungling is the shiznit. I personally can't stand the stuff.

it's certainly better than the beers on that list, no doubt. It's better than Pabst, and I don't "mind" Pabst from time to time.

Well, judging from my reviews in the beer thread i guess im what would be considered a "snob", but heres my stance:

The beer/pizza/burger comparison is a solid one. When one has the time/money to enjoy the top tier versions, it is always preferable. if you cant see that a stronger, cleaner, more flavorful beer is superior, youre just wrong. just as you would be to claim the best hole-in-the-wall pizza/burger joint in your town wasnt superior to lil caesars/mcD's. just because you dont, for whatever reason, drink/eat those upper level items doesnt mean they arent better.

That said, when money is tight or youre just in the mood and you want some beer/pizza/burgers theres nothing at all wrong with grabbing some high life/caesars/mcD's. i certainly do it. just dont go around telling everybody who had a chimay w/ a chicago-style that theyre foolish/a pussy for not consuming the cheap stuff like you did.

Beer queers are a funny bunch...all the top selling beers are also on this worst list.

Real beer drinkers really don't give a shit and are especially not going to be home brewing unless making a profit at it.

There are nerds in everything though.

There is a clear difference between drinking beer for the taste and getting drunk on the cheap which is why so many of the beers listed are 'popular'. Same thing for wine. I'm not at all surprised with the list, they really are awful beers. Give me a Newcastle over any of those anyday. On the cheaper big brewery side Kokanee is a great option, not sure why people want to drink piss water.

This person obviously knows a good beer. :thumbsup:

 

[Ninjahedge]

The only reason cheap sells is advertising.

The irony being that it would be even cheaper if they did not advertise so much!!!!

As for pisswater, anyone here have Knickerbocker? After the school I went to banned kegs at parties, they started bringing in the cheapest large scale cases they could. KB came in cases of 16oz bottles. I never thought I would taste a beer flatter and more watery than coors, but I did!


Back then, I thought that MGD was the Gold Star!

Simpler Times doesn't advertise at all, and is the cheapest, afaik.

of course, they have a completely different distribution scheme, being a Trader Joes joint, and all.

I like most of those beers... but then again, I like most beer nowadays.

yuengling isnt good beer

its not-shitty cheap beer. ill buy it if i want some beers and im almost broke. its drinkable, but i dont think its good.

well, except the bock..which is hard to find. thats a damn decent beer. not great, but not at all bad.

/usually a beer snob
//has a beer list in mah sig

 

[zinfamous]

fav beer snob post ever. thank you, sir.

yeah?


yeah?



well, well, well...you're just a weed snob!

:hmm:

Do they not have King Cobra out in Cali?? It's seriously amazing

 

[sjwaste]

That list is 100% bullshit. I've had just about every beer on it, and I can tell you OE 800 is not nearly the worst. They just picked a bunch of random malt liquors and cheap beers.

Any worst beer list that does not include Golden Monkey is inaccurate.

 

[sjwaste]

Have you HAD king cobra? It's impossible to not enjoy. It's impossible not to chug it after the first sip in pure unabated joy.

Next time I'm up near Boston, you and I have to slug a couple of 40s.

Even as far as malt liquor goes, King Cobra isn't awful. But it's no Country Club.

 

[IHateMyJob2004]

Actually, it can.

All you have to do is know the barleywines that have not become popular.

Brooklyn Monster, before it was known, was being sold at the taps for the same price as a regular brew. Brooklyn Chocolat Stout was the same.

They are both over 10% ABV. (Common pilsner/lager is usually about 5%, give or take).


But the key here is not booze bombing. You can just get some vodka rotgut for cheaper than that (popov anyone? LOVE those plastic bottles! ). Taking some of that stuff and mixing it with Fresca will give you the same as the chick-drunk-drinks they have been pushing for the past 15 (after the wine cooler era) for a lot less.

I still get a kick out of trying to make Mikes "hard" lemonade manly. It may be tasty, but it is still far from Manly.


Back OT, Keith Stone? OMG! I just can't believe ANYONE would find him a role model to live their life like and buy the same beer! I know it is a joke, but sadly, he is probably closer to reality (3' slimjim et all) than not....

Brooklyn chocolate ... Best winter beer EVER! I did not know it was 10%.

As for hard lemonade, I used to drink Sublime with no regrets.

Not sure what Milwakie's Best Ice goes for these days, but I used to get 24 packs of cans for about 50 cents per can 11-12 yeara ago. FWIW: I isually did morgans with a splash of Coke.

:thumbsup:

I'm the opposite--I've tried, at the very least, a few dozen different brands of beer in my life, and I have yet to find one that I would actually drink for the taste. The end result is the same, though: I just drink them all, because to me, they're all bad.

It's ok, I've come to accept that I likely won't ever actually enjoy the taste of beer, although I'm always up for trying new ones whenever I go out and something catches my eye.

In all truthfulness, I don't like the taste of any alcohol other than some wines. Doesn't stop me from drinking it, though. What can I say, I'm a masochist.

Edit: I should clarify, though, that while all beer is "bad" to me in some form, it's definitely not all equally bad. There are some I honestly don't mind drinking, and then there's Colt 45.
