Someone's a beer snob. :Q If Busch Light is your best example of cheap nasty beer, then you just haven't experienced life yet... 😉

I disagree. Both Busch and Busch Light suck majorly. They are in the first rank of suckage, in fact, imho.

Busch is the working man's beer. Elitists from Pennsylvania just wouldn't understand. 😉

Dude, in my time, I've slurped down a number of bottom shelf beers -- Schaefer, Schmidt's, Stroh's, Ortleibs, Koch's, Schlitz, PBR, Lone Star, Knickerbocker, Olympia, Mickey's Wide Mouth, and any number of others.

ALL of them have tasted better than Busch, imho.

One's that tasted nearly as bad to me, include Old Milwaukee, Ballantine, Iron City, National, and most any Malt Liquor you could name.

That's my sordid, deep past.

Still think I'm an elitist? 😛

 
Cheap liquor makes me very unhappy the next day.
Cheap beer just tastes bad.
I'm not sure I'd know a cheap wine from a good wine.

I was thinking more along the lines of Thunderbird! ! 😛

I got on a cheap alcohol kick last winter. I bought several different items from 7-11; Thunderbird, Wild Irish Rose and had a colleague buy me a bottle of Cisco Peach. The Thunderbird messed me up the worst. I never could find the Night Train.
 
I love beer, and I can tolerate Bud and Coors Light. Tolerate, not like. However, I detest cheap Vodka. And if you are mixing Vodka to the point you can't tell the difference between a good brand and a crappy one, what is the point?
If you want to get drunk or get a good buzz going, at least enjoy yourself in the process.
Seriously, get Absolute at the bare minimum. If you think it's expensive, go to Costco get a HUGE bottle of it. Meanwhile, notice the Grey Goose and Belvedere beckoning you in the same aisle.

--edit--I suddenly remembered that Bud and Coors aren't even close to being the cheapest and crappiest.
I forgot about brands like Pabst Blue Ribbon, Lucky Logger, cheap malts. Please don't do it!!!
 
I've only had enough wine to get a buzz a couple of times, but it was cheap wine. That stuff gives you a terrible pounding headache the next day.
 
Not sure why, but Albertson's and Popov vodkas mix well. I can drink Steel Reserve with the best of men, but a shitty wine gives me a headache like a bitch.
 
Cheap win is the worst in practice. Theoretically, just going by taste, cheep beer is worst, cheap liquor the best, and cheap wine second best because you can use it for Sangria. However, my friends have this revolting habit of buying cheap wine because it's all they can really afford and then offering it to others. It always tastes like crap. I've more or less given up on them. On the other hand, they have no problem spending an equal amount of money on high quality beer in a six pack. So while crap beer tastes worse, it never comes up.
