I've been trying to get the most beer for my buck.
Recently I've started getting 40oz's and they are the perfect size.
Problem is the Bud Light 40's are nearly 4$ here and I don't know which of the cheap 40s are good.
Can someone recommend me some palatable cheap 40s?
malt liquor thread I guess.

I find that Mickey's and Hurricane are pretty good brands. Nice malty flavor, only about $2.70 for 40 oz, available at most gas stations

I drink Olde English when I buy 40s. Well I'm in FL and we only have 32oz here. When I go out of state I buy like 6 40 oz to bring back but it's usually Miller Highlife or Colt 45. When Im in TX it's Steel Reserve 40s and Bud Light 40s. But in FL it's 32 oz OE or Mickeys or Kobra's because they are usually 2 for 3$ / same with 32oz highlife

>> No.10626462

bud ice is stronger, a little cheaper, and tastes about the same.
also if you really want the best bang for your buck and bud light is your thing, get the 30 packs. 40s might seem cheap because you're only buying like 3 bottles worth at a time, but in terms of price to volume, they're shit.

Anon is looking for CHEAP. a 9 dollar 40 oz is not cheap.

Go for a Mexican beer. I prefer Pacifico but Tecate is also fine and a bit cheaper. I can a 40 oz Paci for ~4.50 and Tecate for ~4.

Dont drink steel reserve, mickey's, or Olde English unless you hate you and anyone who will interact with you/ you're homeless.

But like others have said, if you want the most bang for your buck why not just drink cheap liquor?

I try to avoid liquor stores due to temptation as an alcy.
As long as I ignore them I do well.
only buying 1-2 40's on the way home keeps me on track.
Beers never much been my thing but so far I enjoy it. I only wanted to try malt liquor for price/ this bud is getting a bit weak.

I'll give mexican beer a shot, I know that modelo and coronaextra are pretty good.

There are no "good" 40s, but if you must drink shitty cheap malt liquor, Mickey's is my go-to, and I also have been known to drink Bud Ice.

Just get yourself a six-pack of some higher ABV craft beer, it doesn't have to be an IPA, there are lots of stouts and ales that have a 6+ ABV.

Or just drink liquor if you have to get drunk. A half-decent fifth of vodka, whiskey or rum is like fifteen dollars.

Me too, anon. If I keep hard liquor around the house I would be very drunk all the time. Forcing myself to only buy beer limits how drunk I can get in a short period of time. Buy stuff you think isnt bad and is refreshing.

But if you get too use to drinking crappy beer youll end up like this guy >>10628418
