my Tragic Hateball said, "Outlook not good". then it open hand slapped me. it is a hateball. so, how is it?

Not as bad as I remember but not real good, either. It's a pretty beer, though.

Ill add another for Bud Light Lime.

Westbrook Gose might have to be a second. It has a 94 on BA and everyone raves about it, I just hate the style.

Any type of malt beverage is also foul.

My last homebrew porter. Away from home. Electricity went out. Wife changed temp back in ferm chamber. Never told me. Tasted it and almost got sick.

Wife says "You always say ferm temp is important. I have something to tell you." Electricity was out for 10 hours. When she looked at beer therm strip didnt register a temp.

Beer probably fermemted in the 80 range for several hours.

I recently experienced almost the same scenario you describe, with a Porter in fact. I threw caution the the wind and bottled this weekend anyways, hoping something magical is going to happen over the next month or two during the conditioning period. Unfortunately I think I have two cases of liquid crap waiting to be dumped. Time will tell, but I'm not holding my breath on this one.
 
Maybe this Rosemary Imperial Pale Ale I had...so overwhelming on the rosemary it was stomach churning. Me and my drinking buddy each bought a 4 pack and made a game of tricking our friends into to drinking them
 
Jacobs Best Ice. I was in a fraternity at Penn State. We would go through so much beer for parties that we bought by the pallet. One year the guy in charge of beer bought this stuff for under $6/case. It was so bad people would take a sip and throw it out. We had to start giving out Natty or Beast Ice early in teh party then this stuff late.
 
-Anderson Valley Summer Solstice. I tried this for the first time the other day. Luckily it was a club event and other folks seemed to like it, or it would have gone down the drain.
-Pumpkin beer. Any of them. All of them. Yeah, I said it.
-Steel Reserve. I'm not much for malt liquor, but that stuff tastes like rotten barley and solvent, and is little more than hangover fuel.
-St. Louis Premium Framboise. I can stomach the Lindeman's fake Lambics and enjoy them. This one was awful. Cloying imitation raspberry cough syrup.
-Sam Adams Cherry Wheat and Cranberry Lambic. Both drain pours.
-Victory Golden Monkey. People love it. I thought it tasted like rubbing alcohol.

Couldn't agree more about Summer Solstice, and I've yet to have a pumpkin beer that ranked anywhere above "meh" (and most weren't even that good). I'm surprised to see so many people saying Cherry Wheat, though! Sure, it's kinda wimpy, but man, when it's 100* and humid out, I'll drink that stuff all day.
 
I'm not a fan of Eel River in Northern CA, just can't get behind the stuff I have had from them.

Haven't tried most of the beers on here cept some BMC stuff because I didn't even want to spend the money... haha

These days I basically just drink my own brews.
 
Have to say that when at a great craft beer bar nearby for lunch today I cringed when two guys next to me ordered a Coors Light and a Mich Ultra. My pee after drinking good beer is darker and probably higher alc% than that stuff.
 
We can all agree Bud light Lime is gross. And BMC along with that. I tend to like some pumpkin beers. I think stuff like that is personal preference. However some stuff is universally bad ie BLL
 
My 5th beer. To be fair, it was a 1 gallon joke batch made using a bunch of leftover ingredients I had laying around and I used Wyeast Abbey II yeast just to be extra silly. It fermented too hot on top of everything and came out tasting like hot (11.7%) banana Runts candy. Terrible and hilarious.

Commercially, 21st Amendment "Hell or High Watermelon" probably. It sounded interesting so I bought a 6-pack to share at work. It sat in the fridge for a LONG time. No one would drink it after tasting a sip from the first can. One coworker tried a can and just poured it down the drain.

I have no problem with the Budweiser or Miller or PBR type beers. Sometimes, they're just fine and appropriate for the situation. Backyard party on a sunny day? Yep. In the bleachers at a roller derby match? Heck yes.
 
my recent Coopers lager kit, its been bottled for a month now and i just cant bring myself to drink it, awfull stuff, yet i still do......

I actually enjoy BL lime sometimes. -_-
 
Back in the mid eighties there was a keg only beer called Falstaff. Not only did it taste like aluminum, just drinking 24 oz always developed into a big headache the next day. The only upside was that a poor college student could afford it at 10 cents for an 8 oz glass.
 
Had a pumpkin ale a few years ago from a local (vancouver) brewery. I think it is the only beer I could not finish. So artificial tasting and thick....so bad
 
Can't remember the name but it was a banana flavored lambic I tried at a beer festival. Couldn't even swallow one sip.
 
Kona Brewing Company. I blame bad transportation and storage, not the brewery.
 
I thought it was this

maybe where you were. it's still made. I think my dad is the only reason they sell any. my dad used to keep it in his closet because my step brother wouldn't put any in the fridge or drink a room temp beer.
