Sapporo Premium

It really pisses off the micro/craft brew faggots that this has won the world beer cup four times.

>>4311368

Only if it's in the feminine body shaped can, it tastes like shit out of a bottle.

Guinness

I remember finding Grolsch drinkable once

Sam Adams technically qualifies as a microbrew, otherwise that's pretty good and not very uncommon

If you're asking, "Which bud light analogue is the least shit" the answer is that they're all shit and it doesn't matter

>>4311361

The only answer is regular Coors.

>>4311370
Not really. It's in literally the shittiest category: American style light pilsner. Might as well name the category pisswater.


If I am drinking pisswater, I want the least amount of taste while still the body of a beer (so no miller 64 or bud select). I would have to say coors or coors light.

Michelob lager is actually pretty damn tasty, but it's not nearly as ubiquitous as miller/bud/coors or even corona.

Patrician as fuck.

>>4311383
>Not really. It's in literally the shittiest category: American style light pilsner. Might as well name the category pisswater.

Just stopped by to say exactly this (except the category is American style light lager, not pilsner).

>>4311370

>Making it sound as though there is only one winner for the World Beer Cup, and not over 90 different categories...

I stick to High Life.

Busch, PBR, Bud, Coors. They're all drinkable and you get dat rice flavor. The only bad run-of-the-mill-swill comes from those generic, store branded, canned beers that they sell at Trader Joe's, Whole Foods, and "bargain" grocery stores.

>>4311390
>>4311395

Anything that comes in 30 packs is immediately disqualified from being good; they only sell them like that because it is assumed the purchaser is a drunk and will be needing a larger quantity of swill without any concern for taste.

Depending on the time of year. Normal Sam when this beauty isn't available. I don't think anyone would really consider this a microbrew, whatever the technicalities may say.

Are you still waiting until you're old enough to buy your first beer?

My favourite "big" brand is probably Hoegaarden.

>>4311408

>2.25%

lol, you would have to drink infinity of those to catch a buzz.

>>4311415

I like the tryhards that come here and say how pleb bud light and other cheap beers are and make fun of people for drinking it. You freak cheap beer when you're at a party or some college bar. You buy more expensive beer to relax with friends. You're not impressing anyone on the internet with your "superior taste in alcoholic beverages."

>>4311444
This is a "run of the mill" thread. Most run of the mill beers don't top 5%

>>4311449
>You freak cheap beer
Drink...whoops

>>4311450

>don't top 5%

haha, name any malt liquor, shit that has the word "ice" and 90% of non-merican' beer.

>>4311449
Even college bars sell decent ale in Europe. It's just parties or round people's houses i'll drink pleb stuff. Nothing wrong with a cheap (cold) lager on a hot summers day at a bbq.

Hell i've even drunk Strongbow cider when it was the only thing on offer.

Guinness.

>>4311460
What? Heineken, Estrella, carling and amstel are all 5 or lower. Basically coin beer that's not German or Belgian will be low.

>>4311466
>Hell i've even drunk Strongbow cider when it was the only thing on offer.
I'm glad for the trend over the last couple of years of faggoty fruity ciders taking off. Now if i'm around a cider drinkers house I at least get offered some yummy fruit juice instead of the drain cleaner it all was 5 years ago.
Usually i'll bring my own supply though.

>doesn't realize shit 30 pack beer just watered down, off flavor seconds, that failed quality control of their 24 pack cousins, served up to people who don't care how they get drunk.

Sam Adams or Boulevard, depending on where you live of course. USA in my case. Boulevard is more midwestern in availability - based out of Kansas City

If in China, it's all swill or worse unless you buy overpriced imports. Snow is probably the best of domestics unless you're actually in Qingdao province. Hite is decently priced in China even though it's an import, and tastes better than anything local, and if you have a Metro supermarket they'll stock shitty Australian imports (XXXX) but even those are much better than Chinese domestics.

>>4311473

Either this or Yuengling if it counts.

>>4311466
Some do too in the US but your average college bar that bands kids under will just sell bud light, Sam Adams, coors and mixed drinks

This counts as swill and at 8.1% APV gets the job done.

>>4311505
Oh god please no. I'd rather drink a natty ice.

Used to get this at the party store I used to go to. Pretty good and price wise about the same as PBR, natty ice, etc.

>>4311395
High Life ftw. I used to drink it all the time in my alcoholic days.

I too like plain ol Budweiser.

There's nothing offensive at all about the taste, goes with any food, goes with any occasion.

>>4311397
dawg... dawg... 30 packs for 7.99

>>4311755

WAT...sure if you never leave the trailer park and eat exclusively those shit mixed mystery meat hotdogs with mostly filler.

>>4311759

YO G...it'll rot your guts out, that's why it's 7.99.

>>4311361
Fucking disgusting piss-water Americlap puddle juice. I went to USA and tasted that shit. Fucking revolting.

>>4311449

>Not bringing a bomber of microbrew to a party to start off the night before drinking the free PBR when you already have a buzz going.

I never start a night of drinking with the cheap stuff. The quality of the alcohol I drink as the night goes on diminishes.

i love molsons when i can find them.

this only this

>>4312145
God, I am Canadian and wouldn't touch that shit beer.

>>4312164
Get on my level

>>4312171

wat. never seen that

PBR. Unfortunately, you don't get it at most bars here in Ontario. :/
Molson Canadian is usually my go to beer if I'm at a crappy bar that doesn't have PBR.

>>4311799
But Guinness offers a low ratio of alcohol to the cost. It's only like 4.5%, and costs much more than the big American lagers, plus almost anywhere you go in States the bartenders don't know how to serve it right and/or don't care. Unless you go to a nice pub and pay $6 for a pint it's going to taste watery. If were talking about the least worst cheap macro brews for the purpose of getting drunk, the regular (non-light) American pale lagers are best and cheapest.

>>4312164

Not everyone is drinking hairspray and worried about the alcohol:cost ratio.

PBR dude.

That's not the MGD logo

>>4312245
Yes. This.

>>4312245
I think high life is the best canned tall boy.

It's the only beer I know where it's actually worse out of a bottle. Probably because it's clear and gets skunky most of the time before purchase.

>>4312261
If you pour the beer into a glass, can > bottle every time.

>>4312269
This. If anyone tries to tell you that can beer has a tinny taste, tell them to use a goddamn glass.

As someone who drinks a lot of cheap beer, these are my rankings.

1. PBR, Bud Regular, Yuengling (Good flavor)

2. High Life, Coors Regular, Busch (Less
Flavor)

3. Bud Light, Coors Light, Natty Light (Almost No Flavor)

4. Natty Ice, Bud Ice, (Slight off taste, gets you drunk though)

5. Olde English 800 (Noticably odd taste, but cmon its olde english and 40s are awesome)

6. Keystone Light, Miller Light (Noticably odd taste)

7. Steel Reserve, King Cobra, Keystone Ice (Bad taste, gets you drunk)

998. Odoul's
999. Big Flat 1901 a.k.a. walgreens beer
The worst tasting beer I have ever had. They were 2.50 for a six pack and I could not drink more than 1.

PBR. Best beer that comes in a 30 rack.

>>4311402
Craft beer isn't a swill.

waddddupppppp

I like to match the beer to the moment. Coors lite for football, Budweiser if I'm at a rednecky place, Hamm's for fishing, Summer Shandy for the beach.

Wow.

This thread is literally worse than every single fast food thread I've ever seen on /ck/.

Seriously. This is obviously a troll thread. ("None of that faggy micro brewery stuff.")

There really isn't anything to compare among shitty American pisswater macrobrew "light lagers" (or, "American rice beer"). It's literally all complete crap.

People are delusional if they actually think there is something to discuss here...

>>4312366

>>4312366
There are a lot of situations where you can only choose a macrolager.
OP's simply asking everyone what their favourite one is. Nothing wrong with that.

>>4312366

Hey man if the poor and tasteless want to have a beer thread they have a right. There's certainly other beer threads where YOU can have a meaningful discussion with other like-minded individuals if that's what you want. Of course if you're just trying to be an asshole, then by all means continue...

>>4312396
>There are a lot of situations where you can only choose a macrolager.

Perhaps we have lived in very different places than me, but I've been in very few situations where the only options where macrolagers; and when that was the only option, there was really only one beer to choose from to begin with, and hence, no real choice.

>>4312412

I sage because I know I'm not contributing. But when OP clearly discounts micro-brews he/she is obviously either trolling or has some unreasonable hatred of the vast amount of beer variety available to him.

>>4312432

There is a bar across the street from U Ottawa that has PBR on tap. However I go to the bar down the street that has Steamwhistle on tap.

>>4312706
That greasy diner owned by... Turkish people or something.

There's a scary amount of love for PBR in this thread.
I tried it once and it just tasted like dirty water, I seriously don't understand the appeal.

>>4312739

Try drinking it ironically.

>>4312744
Why would you do that? Why would anyone do that? Why wouldn't you just drink something that tastes good? I'd sooner drink Mike's Hard Lemonade than PBR

>>4312739
its like 25 cents a can dude.
also, this

so whats better PBR or Blue Ribbon?

>>4312760
5/10

>>4312744

It's funny because the anon in your picture looks like a hipster as a thumbnail, but it turns out that he isn't.

>Irony

Seriously though, if you are going to drink any cheap swill american lager you might as well do it ironically if at all; and if you are going to drink it ironically, drink mother fucking PBR.

>It's also the obvious choice for value beer when it comes to the cheapest shit available.

>>4312782

At least you didn't post a picture with a handgun for absolutely no reason.

>>4312706
i went to a bar in PA that had natural light on tap and it was 1.50 for a 22 oz draft.

it was pretty good on tap.

Yuengling. Its as cheap as budweiser here (ohio) and much tastier.

>>4312860
yuengling isn't available everywhere though, pity

Why do you hate me for what I drink

why does everyone fucking hate me

i just want to be nice to people. how am i being less nice by buying a variety and giving it to everyone. why do you people still hate me, what the fuck does it take to not be hated by every single fucking person in existence, even for what i want to drink

My fellow ausfags will be hating, I really enjoy it though.

>>4312912
I don't even... what? If you're serious about giving out free beer and people still don't like you you're either a horrible, horrible person or your friends are.

>>4312765
Gah PBR is so shitty it gives me a hangUNDER.

No need to wait for the morning folks, here's a fuck-all headache right now.

>>4312921

Sure PBR is shitty. But for the price it is far better than Bud/Miller/Coors...

>>4312920
but it's craft beer. so i'm a pretentious piece of shit that everyone wants to die no matter what i do, no matter what i give, everyone just wants me to kill myself.

>Sam Adams
>Craft beer

Protip: the fact that they market a beer as a "premium" one and sell it for jacked-up prices doesn't make it a craft beer, it makes it an overpriced beer marketed towards stupid hipsters. That being said, I'll agree that Sam Adams is probably the second best "mainstream" beer out there. Leffe still takes the first place for me.

I live in Toronto, is steam whistle too small?

>>4311755
Yea, I usually put the budweiser classes next to the 2l plastic bottle of pepsi.

>>4312916
Can't be worse than Fosters.

>>4313524
ive drank many, many beers. Leffe blonde is one of my favourite and my definite favourite of easy to obtain mass produced beers.

cheers to that

>>4313575
steam whistle is not a micro brew. It is a local mass produced beer like mill street.

Milwaukee's Best

I don't care what anyone says, Pabst Blue Ribbon is decent beer and the only macro American that I will buy.

>>4311361
I usually get corona.

>>4313632

why, why would you even say that...are you insane, damaged and taste challenged? In all serious though, that stuff works better then turbo lax. whenever I'm constipated I grab a 6 pack of the beast, plug my nose and shot gun them one after another; works like magic.

I've tried Yuengling a time or two. One of the most boring, tasteless beers I've ever drank. My beer of choice currently is Milwaukee's Best Ice, so my taste buds are probably off a little. Or maybe they've been totally annihilated.
