    I drink my mouthwash when I need a quick buzz. Does that count? That Vanilla-Mint Listerine is some good sh*t.

    Isn't that poisonous?

    While its not exactly cheap, Victory Golden Monkey 6 pack for 12.99. All the alcohol of a 12 pack for the same price... but half the fluid and half the full stomach.

    I was just kidding. For the record, I do not recommend anyone drink listerine. Or Scope. Or even Generic Brand Mouth Wash.

    If I want both cheap and tasty I'd go with this one, Bellman 6,0. It's relatively cheap and the 6% packs a decent punch yet it's not overly sweet (which is the downfall of most pale lager beers around 6% and above). Once you get into the 7% pale lager beers they're just sugary sweet and alcoholic with nothing to hide behind (I think this one might still be an all-malt beer, the 7% lager beers all use sugar to boost the alcohol here).

    Zweic Porter, Like licking an aluminum bat that grazed a spill of lousy porter. There is good reason why we don't drink Polish beer.

    Love me some Tallgrass Halcyon. And they've moved it from the 12oz to the tallboys now!

    But yes, the vanilla mint is delicious.

    Otter Creek Spring Bock. Cheap, decent, quaffable and strong enough to get the job done if the job need be done

    When I saw them they were 4 packs like the rest of the Tallgrass offerings. It's only been this last month that I saw them.

    4 pack of Old Raspy is only $8.99 around here. 9% abv should do the trick if that's what you're looking for.

    Molson Ice and Keystone Ice. Keystone Ice is smoother than what the ratings on here would have you believe in my opinion, and around here you can get ten 24oz. Cans for $10. Neither is a craft beer by any means, but both are smooth lagers with good flavor for what they are.

    Back in the day New Glarus Alt was an absolute steal. $7/sixer for a beer that had 9.5% abv. Drink that sixer and your going to be well on your way. Now it would be either High Life or Best Premium.
