The Worst Beer you have EVER had?

steel reserve comes to mind, but for craft beer I would have to say founders sweet repute.

 

I know this stuff (taste) is so subjective, and for every beer I like/love there's another who can't stand it, but I really can't fathom how anyone could drink that and enjoy it. It came in a 4 pack and I kept the other 3 around to pour for others (who enjoy good craft brew), in order to get additional reviews. As a goof, I even told the people "taste this, it's awesome!" Despite my swaying, no one liked it. The best I got from anyone was a funny face and a "hmmmm, that's interesting."

I am curious now, if this will prompt others to rise in defense. I welcome hearing how others might enjoy the Friendship Brew.

 

Mississippi Mud, Bud Light and Heineken are on the top of my lists

 

Hands down, the absolute worst beer I have ever had is this one- Earthquake High Gravity Lager (12% abv). Pure and true filth.

 

Haha I've had that Beer 30, it is awful, even for a guy who enjoys Natty Light (me). The one time I tried Genesee Cream Ale the bartender mercifully exchanged it when he saw the look on my face. I can't recall ever having a craft beer that fell into the "vile" category like those two did. I even thought Ghost Face Killah was pretty decent.

 

in before "BMC"

 

Huh?

 

Honestly, the worst craft beer I've had in a long time time was the Bruery's 5 Golden Rings. My first and only drainpour ever.

 

Cave Creek Chili. SOOOOOO bad

 

Florida Beer Company - Swamp Ape...horrendous. Tasted exactly like I would imagine a Swamp Ape tasting.

 

Boatswain Double IPA (Twin Screw Steamer) - Rhinelander Brewing Company - One of those 22oz. for 2 bucks you get at Trader Joe's ... Just hideous.

 

Cave Creek Chili.

 

John Smith's Extra Smooth takes some beating. When a beer makes you pick Fosters instead you know it's bad.

 

Fantome Magic Ghost. Green beer. I still have nightmares.

 

Rogue Voodoo takes that cake, along with most other Rogue offerings.
But by far, the worst ever, Hell or High Watermelon Wheat from 21st Amendment - It seems the ratings are a bit better now, however my first experience was like drinking water that was drained from a squash that sat in the Summer heat for a month. Cherry Wheat is drinkable worst case scenario. But I've never gagged on a beer until Hell or High

 

Probably has to go to Dark Horse Lambeak wants Blood Orange. Smells and tastes like sour rotting garbage.

 

Infected - Short's Cup a Joe with mature infection, a foamy vomit and garbage meets vinegar horror.
Worst - '94 SA Triple Bock Like drinking soy sauce and molasses with moonshine

 

My first homebrew wasn't bad, but my third batch was one of the worst I have ever had. My worst was a pineapple pale ale (batch 20 or so) disaster I tried. That stuff was truly rank.

 

Care to elaborate? I bet you thought it tasted like wood or something, right?

 

Bud Light Chelada
Steel Reserve is also pretty bad

as for craft I really hated Caber Toss by Goose Island (brewpubs)
