Random Beer Thoughts

[gregkoko]

I guess I never really think about the relative price differences between macros, but maybe that's just me. If I want one at the store, I'll just buy Busch. If it's at a bar, I suppose maybe I'm more price sensitive but the only local place I'd go to and order those kinds of beers has Busch Light and PBR tallboys for like 2 bucks a can, so I'm not exactly price-sensitive at that point. I will never order macros by the bottle though, those are always overpriced especially when at the same places I could get Lagunitas IPA or Two-Hearted for under 5 bucks a pint.

BUSCH?

Julian please

I don’t like High Life.

 

[holldy01]

Its like brut IPA brewers didnt know a champagne of beer already existed

 

[lb304854]

It used to be in the price range of Milwaukee's Best and Icehouse, now it's the same price as Budweiser.

Confirmed.

PBR used to be $1-1.50 cheaper than Budweiser at bars around me. Now all the dive bars have them priced equally.

Maybe it's just a Midwest thing?

"It was always within a dollar, what's the big deal?"

Well if I could save $15 in a single night, that would be aces.

My Dad drank Busch when I was growing up and I drank plenty in college but as far as that kind of stuff goes I'll take PBR, High Life, Old Style (I wish we got Old Style out here)

My dad and all of my older brothers drank Busch. I drink just as much of that as I do High Life.

My favorite latest release is Cigar City's Bock 6-packs for $8. Screw brown ale's. Give me more doppel's, dunkel's, and lagers though.

How far outside of St. Louis is Stag available? Is it a Midwest thing, a Missouri/Illinois thing? It's my go to cheap stuff.

Also a big fan of Stag. It's like $3.50 for 4-16 ouncers.

Coors Banquet Beer tho.

High Life has always been my favorite back to when I was underage drinking. It's has the added benefit of nostalgia now. It's $8 a 12 pack here. I've tried many others and see no need to branch out when I'm in the mood for that type of beer.

 

[jdd419]

Yuengling is my go to. Lager, light, or golden. All great and $6.50 for a 6 pack of 16 oz cans.

High Life, banquet, then lite if I'm going that route.

Haven't seen this posted in here yet:

Workers at San Francisco’s Anchor Brewing Company have announced a drive to gain union recognition on Thursday, according to members of the organizing committee. If successful, the maker of the iconic Anchor Steam beer will be one of the first craft breweries in the country to become a union shop, and the most significant.

Here's a hot-take: High Life is only good out of the glass bottle.

Not a hot take at all. I completely agree with this.

 

[Jacco Macacco]

Confirmed.

PBR used to be $1-1.50 cheaper than Budweiser at bars around me. Now all the dive bars have them priced equally.

Seemingly all the clubs / concert venues here in NY did the same thing, and followed that shortly after by bumping up the prices of Bud.

Its like they were doubling down on punishing us for thinking we could drink cheap.

Seeing the raves that Brewdog’s Overworks beers (from their new sour-only offshoot brewery) are getting is making me feel... not uncomfortable, but a bit conflicted. It’s basically Richard from Wicked Weed with near-unlimited funds, so they should be good, but then it’s Brewdog-circa-2019

Maybe it's just a Midwest thing?

Dive bars I frequented back in California were the same way.
Only draft priced lower was Natty light.

You should see the line for that ddh dick

Narragansett is my cheap beer of choice ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

That's a regional beer, but a good one.

Can't beat the $5 gansett tall boys at every concert venue in MA.

Cheap bottle of beer choice is high life. Cheap can of choice is gansett. And a lime in both improves them ten fold

 

[MikeJones]

I was in Baltimore for New Years a while back and we went out to brunch and along with bottomless mimosas you got pitchers of Natty Bo.

I'd still probably drink Gansett or High Life on the regular but you couldn't beat that deal.
