Is this the worst beer ever sold???

[Jesterdeal]

Other gross ones:

Tiberian Inquisitor from 3 Floyds. We settled on the term "dumpter juice" to best describe that infected mess.

Tactical Nuclear Penguin/End of History/and the Eisbock Schorschbock 31%: all iced beers that taste like dogfood, teriyaki, and earthy mushrooms. Also all over 31% alcohol.

Kill all Golfers mead was really gross too. Like somebody made a Crystal Light Arnold Palmer and accidently melted a candle into it.

Love this thread btw.

I've had a few pints of Peacetree's Sour Mash / wild ale - probably one that doesn't get distributed very far. It took me a little bit to pin the aroma and flavor....I knew I had some sort of association to the flavor in my head and couldn't figure out what...


Then I got closer. "This is...meaty...wtf?" And then it hit me. It's very close to Burger King plain double cheeseburgers. Like a processed meat flavor.


Heh, I kind of enjoyed it though (like I said - a few pints. I went back for it). I had their Kiss From a Gose last night, and it had the same flavor (but this time it was "cut" a bit by the saltyness of a gose). I had a friend smell and taste it. He said it was just like the meaty treats he gives his dog. I could see either of them ending up in this thread with enough distribution exposure though.

A few of the sours from the Chef's In Black have a wonderful "spaghetti O's" tomato taste. Pretty embarrassing that they just release it.

Ugh... Sam Adams Raspberry Wheat. I'm sure many people like it because it's been around a while, but to me it tastes like stale, sour Robitussin

Or Cherry Wheat? The Cherry Wheat is terrible. And people love it!

I will say the worst beer I have ever had the displeasure of tasting was not a basic BMC beer, but rather Swamp Ape Imperial IPA. It was in an incredibly expensive 4 pack, and I didn't have my phone on me to do any research while I was at the grocery store. They should've named it Swamp Ass. Floccing horrible. If you want to try the worst beer ever go find a bottle of it.

I posted this almost word for word more than a year ago in a similar post!!
A grocery store 6 pack, not particularly expensive, and terrible.

I've not had any others that were nearly that bad, out of 1042 unique ones that I've had. Not all to my liking, but none that BAD.

I agree that Redd's Apple ale is terrible, and while it technically is beer, I put it in the category of mikes hard and didn't even think of it for this thread haha. It is terrible though.

Actually, I believe their use of artificial apple flavoring and sweetener gets them classified by the federal TTB and many states as a "flavored malt beverage" rather than beer, and subject to different regulations.

That's right... the Cherry Wheat; I'm confusing it with the Raspberry Whit. That one's not as bad

But can we agree that their Cranberry Lambic was the worst? Just awful.

...teriyaki mushrooms, you say? *perks up*

I've had the Blood Orange Lambeek. I stand by my Ratebeer review (jesterdeal).

Someone brought a bottle to a tasting. I didn't know these guys that well and I literally thought they poisoned me. It BURNED all the way town and I immediately started to feel sick. Even the smell of this thing was noxious.

Having flashbacks...not in a fun way :fro:

Did you pick up any of those delicate notes of poopy diaper? :cross:

 

[MarkZ56]

It sounds like the Malort of beers. Ever had Malort? Hot garbage. Anyone who says they like it is lying and should be kicked swiftly in the shins.

Ha ha ha. More battery acid death and vinegar than poopy diaper, though I have not had the pleasure of tasting a poopy diaper.

The 312 wheat from goose island? I've almost picked that up many times

Yes, and I have had other goose island beers and they were great. I've been too scared to try another 312 but i see it alot.

Every beer they make is a D bomb...and I actually almost got a job there years ago...

High on my list for most overpriced garbage is this guy

I'm hoping we just got a crappy mishandled keg all the way out here in CO but good god it was terrible, like the booziest CTZ ipa you've ever had. At $10 a pint

The brewery is 2 towns from me so while I have never been there I have picked up a 4 pack at the local packy that was about a week old. It isn't $10 a pint good, but I wouldn't call it a bad beer, I'd grab another 4 pack of it some time... Then again I think the 4 pack was ~$10, most good 6 packs are in the $10 - $15 range here.

My worst commercial beer that I can think of is Rouge's Voodoo doughnut bacon (or something like that). It was a few years ago and to this day, all I remember is a horrible fake liquid smoke taste.

Oh man, good call. That was revolting and it just sat on the shelves forever.


Cisco's Rumple Drumkin was really gross too. Tasted like WD-40 and rubber tire.

Big Flats.

I will just leave this here....

Produce of INDIA. hahaha

 

[blizz81]

Big Flats.

We did a supermarket beer shootout a few years back, and I didn't think Big Flats was all that bad.


This also started about a 6-8 month run where I primarily drank Hiland Ice (at $9.99 a 24-pk!) and played Skyrim. Not sure where those months went.

But how does it taste?

 

[Zuljin]

Big Flats.

You drank it too‽ I described it here as salty bait water from the end of a fishing trip ran through a rusty pipe. Steel Reserve is no better.

PS
Totally stole the ‽.

 

[zippybasher]

Pretty much as you would expect a Yeti to taste!

Wet Dog? Yumm!
