    Breakfast Stout
    Lagunitas IPA
    Hop Stoopid
    NB Voodoo Ranger Hazies
    Hop Bullet (I’ve really started to like this one lately)
    SNPA

    I think all of these are excellent and under $10 in my area.

    Breweries: Surly is a bit pricier but worth it. Sierra Nevada is usually quality. Bells and Great Lakes are rarely a disappointment

    Beers: Summit Dakota Soul, Surly Hell, Revolution IPA, Two Hearted IPA, Obsidian Stout. That's off the top of my head.

    Jai alai, fresh squeezed, Manor hill ipa and flying dog the truth and bloodline all fit this category for me.

    My local Walmart used to sell 12 packs of Surly Furious for $17.99. For some reason, they stopped stocking it, even though it sold well.

    My only experience with Great Lakes was so terrible I won't touch it again no matter how good the labels look.

    Jack's Abby, no doubt. 6 packs of pints for $11 in NJ is unheard of for great beer, and yet here it is.

    $9.99 six packs of 12oz Tropicalia are nice if I am buying on price alone but that generally isn't the case; if I just want to get drunk for cheap I buy vodka. If it was possible to get BA Narwhal in my area I would buy copious amounts of it is a tremendous value for under $20/4 pack... that isn't something everyone would consider cheap but for BA stouts it is definitely a great price.

    I never thought of buying Coors to go, but a nearby grocery store is selling 24 bottles of banquet for $9.98 + tax, may check out the bottle dates and consider buying.

    Founders All Day IPA if I want a lighter IPA for cheap. Lionshead Pilsner if I want a light crushable pilsner (i like the taste better than all of the normal light beers like coors, bud, miller, etc). Yards Pale Ale is solid for the price.

    Schells is a good one - always enjoy their offerings.

    For me its probably something like Hamm's or Stroh's for an AAL or its going to be an import like Pilsner Urquell, Czechvar, Grevensteiner, or Paulaner Müncher hell.

    Magic Rock Luminance NEIPA and Vocation Love & Hate NEIPA from the local Tesco. £3 something a can. Makes me so happy that beer this good is available to the masses.

    Here you can get a 6 pack of Hamm's 16 oz cans for as little as 3.18$ with tax. Or at Kroger a 30 pack of 12 oz cans for $11.99 everyday, as long as you have a Kroger card. So Hamm's is my go to budget beer as well. I mostly just drink Hamm's to stretch out my stash of craft beer but I have developed a genuine affection for this insanely cheap brew. I don't even know how they make money on it.

    Right? I once tried to buy a six pack of Hamm's at a gas station and it rung up as $12.99. I told the kid at the register that there was no way in hell that was the correct price but she was not believing me so needless to say I put that six pack of Hamm's back in the cooler!

    Almost always reaching for Sierra Nevada's Pale Ale these days.

    Liquor store had Odell's 6 packs on sale this week for $8, so I walked out with Mountain Standard, otherwise I entered the store planning to buy SN's Pale Ale.
