Post your favorite low-end alcoholic beverage. I'm partial to ice beer and malt liquor. My most recent was Mickey's. My standbys are Milwaukee's Best Ice, King Cobra, etc.

Franzia boxed wine. If you're gonna go cheap, at least min/max the ABV per dollar.

Can't stand cheap beer except for Colt 45 and Miller Low Life.

Semi related, but does anyone know why Miller Low Life tastes worse than Miller Lite despite being cheaper?

If I could only pick one thing to be jealous of Americans for, it would be their access to bourbon and beer/malt liquor dirt cheap.

Franzia is listed as the best, but I'm curious if Milwaukee's comes close.

Milwaukee's Best Ice is 30 cans for $13 at 5.9% abv. So 1.63 oz of pure alcohol per dollar.

Franzia is $15 for 5 liters at 13 percent abv. So it works out to 1.47 oz of pure alcohol per dollar. My math could be shitty but I think beer wins here.

Also, depending on the state, beer, wine, and hard liquors are taxed differently. My state taxes beer heavily, wine moderately, and hard liquor almost not at all. Shit's weird.

Milwaukee's Best Ice is $13.99/case for me. They also recently upped their ABV to 6.9% on the down low last year. That works out to about $0.56/oz.
By comparison, I can get decent box wine (Bota) for $1.31/oz. or much more drinkable beer (Hamm's 24pack $9.99) for $0.75/oz.
Natty Daddy is the winner if you get it from the right place. If you can find a place that sells them for 99cents, its about $0.52/oz. Tastes like aluminum cock though.

i can't recommend the steel reserve "spiked punch" it tastes a lot worse than four loko sour apple and it's only 8% instead of 14%

>> No.9822644

There was not only a connection between malt liquor and rap in the early 90s, they also got attached to the punk scene too. The Ramones and Reverend Horton Heat did jingles for Steel Reserve.
