Never had the dry heaves?

Of course, but bile is in the small intestine. When you dry heave or vomit its all stomach acid and chyme.

Edit: Apparently you can throw it up after repeated vomiting. Never happened to me. My bad.
 
I agree with the Milwaukee's Best before mentioned... As a teen, some friends and I bought a case (cheap), and I could not even get one of them down...
 
Rogue Voodoo Doughnuts Bacon Maple Ale. I've only heard of a handful of people who could finish a bottle of Voodoo, and I've never heard of anybody who drank one and then intentionally bought another.

Hi,
My name is Zamial and I like the Rouge Voodoo Maple Bacon brew. I would drink a whole bottle to myself and would gladly buy every one I happen to find. No my palate is not off, I like smoked beer. I mean I REALLY like smoked beers. For what the beer is, it is not bad IMO. I think the maple syrup is what throws this beer off for most people.

The same can not be said for the peanut butter banana brew that looks just like the maple bacon but with a different background. It has been the only beer I have ever left unfinished at a bar, intentionally. This is still not the worst beer I have had.

As for the worst beer ever? I do believe I brewed it. :( I had an infected batch that I poured out and killed the lawn that was not as horrid as the beer I am referring to. I brewed up a flower infused sour stout. Sour flavors with roasted malts do not belong together and flowers make it worse.

I am not done with strange ingredients either in stouts. I am planning to brew up a European Boletes Mushroom, Persian date stout that will have some dark crystal malts and a touch of peated malt. It will either be fabulous or an epic failure.

You sir, are unique! :mug:
 
There's no competition- the worst beer ever intentionally made is National Bohemian.

Close runners up- anything by Leinenkugel's and Victory Golden Monkey.
 
Hands down, an abortion of a beer called (no, I'm not making this up) "Beer:30" by a sadistic company called Melanie Brewing in Wisconsin. Apparently they use grey waste water to brew with, because this stuff is so bad that I couldn't stomach choking down more than a sip. It tastes like someone found a budweiser in a desert, dug it up, and poured some rubbing alcohol in it. Offensive in every way. It's got an average score of 1.22 on BA which I think is generous.

O come on man... Natty Boh was my cheap beer of choice back in the day. It at least has some flavor, more so than bud light and such.
 
When I was in college I lived in a house with three other guys. My brother-in-law was homebrewing at the time and bought a case of Wisconsin Club because it was cheap and he needed the bottles in a hurry. He brought it by the house and said he needed the bottles the next day. Four college guys poured 20 bottles of that crap down the drain.

Not far behind is Pumking. Pumpkin beer is so popular with homebrewers so I thought I'd see what is all about. I obviously don't get it, I poured that one out too.

As a big fan of stouts, I like to try as many different examples as I can find. I intended to put a can of Lion Stout in a 6 pack mix-n-match and accidentally ended up with Lion Imperial. I don't know what that s**t is, but it tastes like Old English 800 mixed with concentrated urine.

Man we used to buy this for $3 a 12er at the local grocery outlet. It's definitely on par with its fellow shelfmate Gameday (7-11 funded beer)
 
Magic Hat #9. I was really excited to try it after my friend raved about it, so I bought a sixer recently. I choked down one and gave the rest to him. I did not like it at all, just tasted weird. I'd rather drink BLL.
 
When I was in Russia I had a smoked salmon beer that was a big hit over there. I got one took a sip and lost it right there at the bar. I had to pay to have it cleaned up. That was the most rotten thing I could have ever done. And the sad part is was in the bottle a small sliver of smoked salmon that everyone would drink the beer then eat the salmon.
 
Miller 64. Doesn't even taste like beer... not even really, really bad beer.
 
Hard to pick a worst. There definitely have been some disappointing brews I've tried.

Most recently, grabbed a bomber of Lagunitas Lucky 13 (research). It's pretty highly rated, so I probably just don't get it, but it tasted like licking the inside of my grain bag and then washing it down with a couple Centennial pellets. Also, there must be a boatload of rye in there because it was spicy spicy spicy.

On the plus side, my girl and I got pretty tipsy on it, having had it on an empty stomach while cooking dinner.
 
I have a few friends that like corona. When I say that it tastes bad their response is, ”it tastes great with lime.” I don't think you should have to add flavor to a beer to make it drinkable. It's probably not the worst but I don't like it...
 
I completely disagree about the BMC beers. Yeah, there's not much to taste there. But I'll take something I can pound down at a BBQ without having to think about it over something I take a sip and want to dump it down the drain.

I'm right up there with folks saying Voodoo Maple Bacon Nasty Monstrosity. After that beer it should have been made illegal for Rogue and Voodoo to work together.

Other nominations:

-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.

Yeah, that cherry wheat reminded me of cough syrup. Yuk! I still have a couple in the fridge if there are any takers.
 
I challenge anyone to come up with a beer worse then my failed crawfish beer experiment.

Can you explain how you made this first? Because what I imagine it to be I can't see how you thought it might be a good idea.
