OT - Worst Beer

Miller High Life.  You can't even play beer pong with that shit because the head never goes down and it's nasty from top to bottom.  Our beer of choice was Southpaw.  $30/keg.  I did the math one time and it works out to like 11 cents a can.

Red dog.

Because O'Douls sucks ass.

Definitely Hoegaarden.  If I wanted it to taste like Christmas came in my f'ing mouth, I'd befriend a mall Santa.  I drink all beers, from Natty to the most Indian of IPA's... and the only one I would turn down at this point in my life is a damned Hoegaarden...

Grolsch. 

Bud Select 55 is absolutely disgusting.

I walked into my buddy's place the other day and he handed me an already-poured beer, so of course I accepted.  After taking a couple of sips, then seeing the empty bottle on the counter, I knew why he handed it to me without giving me a chance to respond.  I think someone left it at his place after a party, but either way, that stuff is fucking terrible.

Red White and Blue was the worst back in the day. It was considered the cheap version of Pabst Blue Ribbon - which to me wasn't something you'd call good to begin with.

Beast Light is beyond terrible.  My first time I visited UM after graduating, I played a game of beer pong with it and puked in my mouth when the other team made their first cup.

Milwaukee's Best Ice....Nothing more to say.  The Beast Ice is horrendous.

Big Jug Beer.  It came in a gallon jug with a screw off top.  Supposedly Cincinnati’s finest.  Managed to scrounge up $1.79 for it.

Olde English 800 High Gravity

Is anyone a fan of that lime flavored beer? The Bud Light Lime and Miller Chill? I always thought that was a nasty tasting beer, but of course I've got a pair of balls so that might deter me from liking them...

You can drink a whole six and not even get a slight buzz. Unbelievable shit!! Worst beer I have ever tasted

PBR blows. Or schlitz. It's tough to even choke one of these things down.

I cannot stand Keystone Light. Makes me burpy.

It would have to be Red White and Blue Light. When my roommates and I didn't have any money, we'd drink Red White and Blue Beer. Then, one of my roommates decided he need to watch his weight, and went out to buy the light version. Regular was nearly undrinkable. Light stretched the definition of "beer" beyond reasonable limits.

Growling Gator Lager . . . about $5 a case when I was in school.  Gave you terrible swamp gas.

Black Label.

Anything at a microbrewery in Utah.  Some of it tastes all right, but none of it is stronger than 3.2.

My dad tried to drink every beer in the world and would often get a six pack drink one and leave the rest for us kids to steal. He had a 5 pack of Harley Davidson which i think was worse then motor oil (maybe it was and the quarters game lasted to long).

The next awful beer was National Bohemian out of Maryland and i think it was made from the silt of the Chesapeake. Just awful, but very cheap to buy a case in college.

I couldn't even beer bong it. Never a good idea. As a broke freshman, I knew it wasn't worth it.

Apparently this stuff is big in Wisconsin...someone gave me a 12 pack of various "flavors" last year. Horrible.

I never tried it.  I'll admit--I was chicken.

.......tastes like a keg that was left out in the summer heat for 5 weeks. It may be the oldest brewery, but that doesn't mean its any good.

Other horrible beers besides Rolling Rock:

1. Old Style (see my other reply)

2. Natural Light........its cheap for a reason

3. Black Label beer.........pretty sure you can't find this anymore and there is a reason for this.

4. little kings......yuck

5. any malt liquor......was made to get people drunk who don't know any better

6. Anything "Ice" including Icehouse....it may get you drunk but it tastes like shit.

***BTW my favorite "Stock" beer is Sam Adams, solid as it gets...................not to say that there are numerous other good beers out there, but that is my "go to" beer.

***I am 33 now, so my tastes have changed considerably over the past 10 years and I think age definetly affects how you rank you best/worst.

Not talking about cheap shit, but stuff offered at gatherings in normal, every day life.

Michelob Ultra and Bud 55.  I drink one and I instantly hate America. 

Back when I was in high school and thought 40s were cool

I know a number of people who like Old Rasputin but I, personally, am of the bent to imagine it is what used motor oil would taste if I ever cared to sample it.

"Your horse has diabetes."

don't bother me. They are water. Well, that's not BAD. I like water. So long as they're cold, eh. When I think of a bad beer, I mean a bad beer.

I don't care for Stella Artois at all. Bought a six when it was becoming "popular", drank one, and left the rest to waste in the heat all summer till I just tossed them.

I also think Labatt's sucks harder than my shop vac, but I'll bet I'm in the minority.

Well not so easy, High Life or Keystone. 

Worst beer ever made.

I'll drink almost anything, but MGD is off the table.  I think they must have wet, diseased dogs swimming in the kegs.  Vile stuff.

Wild Blue, the blueberry lager from Anheuser Busch, just awful. Tastes like blueberry juice mixed with vinegar and dog vomit

"It's not a beer, it's a Falstaff."

Genesee Ice

/thread

Seriously.....I'll bet if anybody on this board had a Genesee Ice, it would be the hands down winner (or loser). 

I'm sorry if it's a favorite with any of you but I can not stand the taste of this beer at all. I'll go for Natty, Miler light anyday, Bud Light, Coors, Becks, Budweiser and Molson but I can't drink Samuel Adams.

I was partying a few years back being college students everyone drinks natty, keystone etc.  Well being drunk my friend and I found the most interesting beer ever.  American Light.  Never heard of it never have seen it in stores, and could taste how shitty it was even after the point where all beers taste the same.

Red Dog.  I was hammered and went to a frat party with my friends in my freshmen year.  That's the only beer that they had which is weird, but I guess it's because I got there so late.  When I first tried it, it tasted so bad that I didn't want to take any more sip after that.  Even when I'm drunk, it taste like shit.

Old Milwaukee is close second.

Funny, I don't mind PBR, Keystone, Miller, Natty and other cheap beers.  I guess it's different taste for different people.

Just drank a few La Fin Du Monde's tonight while on the town in KC.  "The End of the World," brewed in Montreal, may be the finest beer in North America.

So you're forcing me to do a 180.  I drank quite a few 40 Oz'ers of that fine French beer, Goe-bel's, back in the day.

The worst beer is stale beer.  But it was free.  So I drank that, too.

Bud Select 55, MGD 64, and Keystone Light are terrible.  They're not offensive tasting, because they're basically water.  They're the best beers for going to the bathroom a lot and not having a good time.

As for worst tasting, I'm going to have to go with Leinenkugel's sunset wheat.  It tastes like fruity pebbles.

Blech

Never ride the 211 train.

Keystone (not keystone light)
Red dog
And my personal least favorite beer:
Milwaukees best light special reserve... That shot was like 10 dollars for.a 30 with bottle deposit (or so said the shitty frat that gave it to me).

... Hamms beer, that is pure skunk. The bar by me does a 9 dollar hamms special all you can drink, ive never seen anyone drink more than 10. Take a miller light and leave it outside to get warm, than put it in the fridge. Do that about 5 more times and you have a stale nasty skunk beer that still is better than hamms. It's 9 bucks for 30 if you think you can handle it.

Genesse Cream ale (as mention above)

Rainier (they sold the first 36 pack?)

Malt Liquer: St Ides, King Cobra.

Good bad beers:

Natty

Old make me wake funny

the Beast family

Busch

Mickeys

PBR

Many of which I have not tried (nor do I want to).  My personal worst is Tusker Lager from Kenya.  It tastes like the smell of the zoo.

Blatz

Old-y but good-y from our friends Down Un-dah ....

"American beer is like sex in a canoe: its f-cking near water."

A beer that is 120 proof can't be that great, right?

http://www.vancouversun.com/life/Dutch+brewer+claims+world+strongest+bee...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steel_Reserve

It was $1.79, including deposit in the late '90s when I was at M, and I drank a lot of it. 1.5 bottles and you're done.

I tried it again about a year ago and it's horrible.

pink can, overweight swimsuit models from the 1920's on the can, and the slogan:     "the pale, stale ale with the foam on the bottom"

Goats' Breath.  Found this beauty at a drive thru in Kentucky about 10 years ago.

My top 4 Worst

1. Milwaukee's Best

2. Miller High Life

3. Keystone

4. Red Dog

I do enjoy PBR because of Charleys specials, but that's about it.

rhymes with shits.

and missed this fun thread.  My older brother was three classes ahead of us at Michigan, so he was our go-to man until our 21st.  Never ask an older sibling to "get whatever they want" because the result is usually several quarts of Blatz.  That swill tasted like it was made with well water  and fermented in a rusty drum.  

Hudy Delight Light Beer is the worst.  Just another bad product from the State of Ohio.

Miller High Life...played BP with it last weekend and felt sick the rest of the night. Never had that with any beer before in my life...never gonna drink that again.

a few others sub-leased a house on Arch Street which we called the pit. A very frugal guy sub-leased the enclosed front porch(!) for about $25 a month. His beer of choice was Drewry's, which, as I recall, sold for $4 a case.

I bought one bottle from him; worse beer ever.

Not sure where it's from, but it's popular in Qatar.  13% though.

The worst beer I had to drink was Michelob Ultra Dragonfruit Peach beer.  A few friends we had were girls and they insisted on only drinking that beer when they played beer pong. Unfortunately any left over were also used as punishment for the loser of an NCAA '08 game. My friends, it is terrible.

Also, I tried a gluten free beer once.  I can't remember the name of it but it was disgusting.

an International Field Study for my MBA in Russia this summer, they sell 3 litters of what they claim is beer.  While it is very cheap, under $3, it has a taste similar to what I would expect from cat urine. 

You might as well piss in your mouth.

This ^^^^ is the worst beer I've ever had, and I've had just about everything else in the thread.

Freshmen year in South Quad, myself and a few others had very little money for beer.  Goebel was too rich for our blood, if that gives you any indication.

Kroger had a special on Beer.  No name beer.  It had a white label with red trim with big bold black letters that simply read BEER.  It was $6 or $7 for a case, if I recall.  It sucked.  But we didn't care.

I'll say Old Style Light... Being from Chicago, I make my friends try it when they visit just to see their faces.  Also Red Dog is awful.  Schmitt's Gay is pretty terrible too.  Sorry in advance.

Time to start drinking.

Cave Creek Chili Beer.  Just ghastly.

My least favorite beer comes from one of my favorite brewers, Sam Adams. I usually love the stuff, especially the seasonals and other limited editions, but Cranberry Lambic (found only in the holiday seasonal pack I believe) is simply terrible. So terrible that I ended up pouring it down the drain after half a bottle. That has never happened before or since, as I consider it a sin to waste beer, but that was just foul.

Worst:  Red Dog

Best "worst" beer:  Milwaukee's Best Light -- stuff isn't terrible.

Maybe it's not the absolute worst beer in the world...but I did punch a guy in the arm for getting a pitcher of it when it was his turn.

I think I've figured some things out.

#1: If you would actually prefer a "can of bud" or something to just about any craft brewer, or even a big name micro brewer like Sam Adams, you're not allowed to vote. I'm not saying you can't like Bud, which isn't bad stuff at all, just can't actually prefer it given a straight up choice.

#2: If a beer is flavored (lemon, cherry, lime, etcetera) and you don't like the flavor, that's fine, but that's not a bad beer. That's just you not liking the flavor. A bad beer is the kind that the whole thing tastes like dog crap smells or makes you wake up feeling like your skeleton has holes in it or something.

Any kind warm, doesn't matter, it is all disgusting warm

Milwaukee's Special Reserve Ice.

Makes Beast seem like a good drink.

Worst beer I've ever had -- which makes it pretty damned bad! -- is Beer 30 Light

It's made mostly from corn adjuncts, and therefore tastes much like bad soda (which is made from corn syrup)

As I imbibed this disgrace to beveragedom, I could hardly tell I was drinking beer. Afterwards, I had a Stroh's --yes, a Stroh's-- and it tasted like the nectar of the gods in comparison. Just sayin'

Wide mouths or 40 oz. of goodness.  Or 64 oz. if you could find them.

I'm a connoisseur, you know.

There was a time in my life when I thought beer such as Red Dog, Icehouse, and Honey Brown were premium options.

Lacrosse brand beer is revolting.  I have drank a lot of cheap, garbage beer but Lacrosse is the worst by far.  Nothing else I have encountered since even come close.

Miller Distributing and there was some sort of promotional event at Rick's when Steel Reserve came out. That was the one and only time I had it. I choked it down because, you know, I couldn't afford to throw out beer back then. And, of course, it got exponentially worse the warmer it got. The high alcohol content was not worth the punishment of the palate.

Edit:  I know for a fact that I hit the post reply button.  This was in response to someone who voted for Steel Reserve.
