A Bad Beer Thread

[Kevin Bourque]

I don't drink anymore, but when I was in college (early 80's) we used to buy Bartell's Beer by the case for $3. If we returned all the bottles they gave us $1 back. I'm not sure if it was the beer that was naturally horrible, or the fact it was sitting around in a Scranton warehouse for 9 years before we bought it that made it taste so bad.

They were ahead of the trends, "bottle aged" brew.

I don't have access to those fancy craft brews some of you mention. My dislikes are much more towards the cheap end. Busch Light is horrible IMHO, as where any of the Ice beers that were a fad 20 years ago. Having tried a few flavored, I don't know the right term, like fruit and vanilla, I also hate every one I've tried. Beer should taste like beer, there again IMHO.

I don't drink often, but due to a nostalgic whim, I found that I quite like original Coors and Miller High Life,so obviously I have no clue what good beer should taste like.
