    Well, I wouldn't expect to enjoy it. It's kind of like eating one of those fucked up jelly bean flavors... you know it's gonna be bad but you kind of want to know what it tastes like...

    Milwaukee Special Reserve Premium, ICE, and Light. $13.99 a 30pk, the Ice is a decent seller actually.

    I-I can second having this morbid curiosity.

    The cheapest I've seen that immediately comes to mind are Dick's Brewing 12th Man Pale Ale, not to be confused with Hilliard's 12th Can. It's currently priced at $3.99 for a 6er of 12oz cans, $5.99 for a 12 pack. The 12th pale ale is pretty bad though: imagine if Coors Light had the slightest, faintest smell and taste of hops. Nice and cheap though!

    Assume it's the same as other states. Depending on the store, Natty Ice/Beast/Keystone/Hamm's are yer cashed-out-the-change-jar options.

    "special reserve premium" gave me a great laugh. That's some funny shit right there.

    I am also in the Boxer Lager group. I saw it for the first time the other day $13 for a 36 pack. I didn't try it and the beer guy at the liquor store warned me that the price wasn't worth. One tier up is Keystone and Natty at $13 for a 30 pack.

    At the drinkable level it is PBR and Hamm's. Usually $14 for a 30 pack, but I've seen them on sale for as low as $12. After St. Patrick's Day last year we also had 30 packs of Rolling Rock for $12. They really went overboard with the green case displays and had dozens of them a week later. Kind of hoping they do it again this year.

    Do kegs count? $55 bucks for a half barrel of Natty Light is pretty economical (at least that's how much they were in high school).

    One a side note, are zombie threads a common occurrence? Before yesterday there were two posts in this thread, the last one coming nearly two years ago.

    This. It's a 48 pack though, and for only $21.99 (That's a ridiculous 46 cents per beer). What can I say, it's just a Kirkland Signature kind of world. I want to try it, but more so, I really don't want 48 cans of that crap hanging around.

    Aside from macros, Lagunitas IPA is $6.99 / 6pk, same with Sierra Nevada. You can get cases for around $22-24 sometimes.

    hamms: 11.99

    Those prices are vulgar.

    I never look for the cheapest beer. I look for something I will enjoy

    Not that I'd want to drink any of these, but, I still shake my head at how cheap beer can be in "The Good Ole USA". Fortunately I can get some of the great brews from Belgium for "US", or better, prices here in Ontario, Canada.
    Most of the decent/good quality 6ers go for around $13 here.
    Crap beer...$10 for six

    The restaurant I work at was visited recently by one of our distributors and they were trying to sell us Old German, being that were a craft focused bar, we immediately bought 36 cases. Haha just kidding. Why drink old German when pbr is usually around the same price
