Worst Rated Beers in the World!

Wait there are 2 Colt 45’s? Oh no!

 

Same beer, different labels?

 

Haters always gonna hate!

 

It's interesting that even the "Worst Beers" somehow find a place in my refrigerator and taste damn good when the time is right.

 

I guess no one remembers that flavorless, adjunct American beer was the impetus of the craft beer movement.

I (and many others) spent so many of my early years looking for good beer, and finding little, that I have no desire to revert to old ways.

It's about experience, not hate. And the Hamm's ratings got to where they're at without my input, so it ain't just me.

 

I hear ya, & I get it, but part of me just wants to see Hamms, Schmidt & GB Premium survive.

I was right there w/ you many years ago drinking Lowenbrau dark & Pete's Wicked Ale,(wish I knew about Belgium back then), but a traditional can of Hamms reminds me of my old man grilling in the back yard...& that's a good thing.

Cheers & Happy New Year!

 

I made a stop at Minhas and had several, all were terrible.

 

Hell, I'd take a PBR, Kokanee, Tecate, or quite a few others on this list 100/100 times over literally any milkshake IPA ever made.

 

My dad drank Drewry's and Falstaff. No chance of me getting nostalgic.

And yet, with Hamm's not being brewed in MN anymore, just how traditional are you being? You might be better off with some Schell's Deer Brand.

 

I've had 59.

And I've had 61 of the Top 250 (though that was around 80 a couple of weeks ago - not sure why it changed so much).

I'm a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma.

 

Daffodils are already a couple inches up in the mid-Atlantic. Afraid I won't have anything to look at this spring

 

Maybe some Forsythia in a month or so... Grass here is green under the pitiful snow cover. People in the lower valleys have been able to graze their horses year-round the last 2 years.

Agreed, I do like Schell's for the Deer brand & for them revitalizing GB Premium!

 

If these beers are so bad why are these in all the stores? 20' deep of Inbev and Millercoors

 

Only reviewed 3 off the list, but have had a fair amount of others. Some of these I recognize as being good enough for what they are meant to be. Nobody buys a 40 of OE800 expecting it to be a gustatory experience.

I'll probably be among them soon enough. Looked up my beers by style and I've never reviewed a malt liquor.

 

How would you get ratings on this stuff? You would actually have to drink some. Who would do that?

 

I find the old beer relics of the past such an ironically awful niche kinda like the decor of the 50's, 60's & 70's
Days of old sitting table side learning poker while the grown ups played and sucked down the everyman brews of the day.
Watching my aunt kill the head on her beer with salt from a salt shaker...though I later learned that some people liked to salt their suds, Schafer, Goebel, Hamm's, Schmidts, Schlitz, Blatz on and on and on.

 

Blue Moon turns my stomach, the nose is awful, the taste is awful, mouthfeel is like soapy plastic wrap...I suppose the orange slice is supposed to be your life preserver back to something fresh, citrusy and clean. Not this that has still left me gunshy on the mere mention of the wit style which shouldn't until I think of better style offerings.
Sol Limon is quite the salty sack of Limons to the taste buds and gag reflex...

 

Some of those reviews are a riot too. Give them a read if you need a laugh.

I saw Boxer at my local a few years ago for $12/36-12oz. Didn't buy it but went back and looked it up on BA. I'm not afraid of many beers, but this scared me a little...

 

What happened to Dale?

Shotgunning seems like an aggressive delivery method for a beer like that!

 

He decided to step away from the site. Last time I emailed him, he's still doing good.

 

Tickers gotta tick yo. I'll even tick murky, joosey, turbid, hazebroIPAs.

 

And others would add the salt to keep the head up. The grains would act like nucleation points to keep a string of bubbles going.

 

Yikes. I’m only at 7 rated/reviewed since joining here.

How are there 142 beers that rank worse than Rolling Rock? If I wanted a glass of something that tastes like creamed corn, I’d buy a can of creamed corn. Perhaps the recent fad of heavily flavoured beers has improved their reception? You know? I bet if they changed the label to emphasize the ‘creamed corn taste,’ they’d be on a different list in a few short months! Perhaps even at the very top if they ‘payed Hommage’ to the Friendly Giant name and label, and got into the craft brewery practice of ripping off established trademarks!

The worst beer I’ve ever had was from a ‘craft brewery’ that was also a home brew supply shop. I was once told by someone who probably knew what they were talking about that their brewed beer was made from expiring low-end kits in their shop. My one pint of it certainly tasted like a bad kit beer made very poorly. They got bonus points from me for serving it at Canada Day festivities at near ambient temperature (about 85-90 degrees). To cap off the experience, the girl serving that day might have been 14 years old, and had all the cheer a girl that age tends to exude. Sadly, they went out of business a couple years ago….

Speaking of terrible beer and funny reviews. What was the name of that New Jersey brewery that had its own thread in a regional forum a few years back? It was the funniest read on BA. I’ve tried to recall the name and peruse for it, but have thus far come up empty.

 

If these beers were truly rated to style, it’s possible that this list might not even exist! BOOM!!! How many minds/heads just exploded?!? Show of hands? Don’t be shy.☺️

 

I certainly agree that many of these beers are nearly tasteless (at best). My only problem with the ratings is that people are often rating the style rather than the beer itself. AAL beers are supposed to not taste like much, etc. That's apparently their mark of quality. (Bud is quite proud to maintain exactly the same non-taste among its many breweries, and over time.) One faces the paradoxical situation where tastelessness is the brand's mark of quality, and presumably excellence.
A bad AAL then would be not so much blandly neutral as positively off-putting--harsh, grating, sour (in a bad way), etc. I remember two purchases of cases of AALs, well before the craft era, that were so bad I passed them on to my mother (who, bless her departed soul, would drink just about any beer). Those undrinkable beers--at the time, mind you--were Genesee Lager and Iron City Lager (perhaps they've improved since). I'm sure there are plenty others out there.

 

Amen. A few years ago was traveling and friend invited me over for “a beer”….it was a hot Texas day and all he had was the big cans of Steel Reserve. I knew it was bad, but not that bad. Poured it out in the bathroom and acted like I was drinking for next hour. Luckily I drove and had that as an excuse to leave and not have anymore. Absolutely the worst.

 

That really doesn't sound like you.

 

Many of these AAL's were daily drinkers. People drank to cop a buzz. The access to marijuana and other drugs was limited. People drank in taverns after work, at home before dinner, after dinner ,and at parties. The AAL was the beer of choice. The beer drinkers that strayed went to a Heineken or a Guinness Stout. You may want to buy your father, grandfather, or uncle a beer . Put the beer versus craft beer argument aside and enjoy the moment with them. You could try a boiler maker with them.

 

I don’t lol by myself often but this legit made me lol.

 

Meh…I mean, one of my desert island beers would be Genny Light so there’s that…
I get it though. Feel free to hate the style all you want. I used to but life is exhausting enough.
Those f’ing pastry, fruit gloop-glop, hazy frat bois on the other hand…

 

I am not agree that all the beer are worst. The problem is a ugly beer styles.
Low ranking beer will be better.
