Ok so I went with a 6er of PBR ...BOTTLES (cuz im classy like that ) as filler
Along with
6pk SNAP
6 southern tier 422
And 1 kona coconut brow ale

I love working 4 days a week
 
It doesn't have to be as filler. There be some damn fine beers out there.

All sorts of Shiner. Smokehaus sucks though. Sorry, Shiner. But everything else they make is great. Haven't tried Wild Hare, yet. Black Bohemian is my favorite.

Just tried Guinness Black Lager. Good stuff.

Fat Tire and Saint Arnold is also good. Oh, look. Saint Arnold has root beer. :)

Budweiser American Ale, good.

I'll drink anything made in Louisiana, just because. Abita and Covington come to mind.

And my original favorite, MGD.
 
If I'm not drinkin HB I'm drinking whiskey... Red Stag or Maker's Mark.

If I'm havin friends over then I buy SN Pale ale.

Out on town I'm drinkin' PBR 'cause it's cheap and decent. And to para phrase a previous poster, it's a southern redneck beer. "Make our own whiskey and our own smoke too, ain't too many things these 'ol boys cain't do."

I get a decent craft brew of the kind that is on sale or most affordable and combine it with a really tasteless beer like Keystone Light. The Keystone is kind of like malto-dextrine in reverse. It lessens the mouth feel without adding anything to the taste. I get a decent tasting beer for half the cost of a craft brew.
 
The local bar has $2 taps during the local pro-sports games. Since I'm not going to drink BMC I'll have a few Grain Belt Premiums for $2.
 
I chose not to spend my money on beer that is of... Well I don't drink to get drunk or keep the buzz going, drink beer you enjoy or make it.
 
When I am not drinking quality beer I am drinking quality whiskey.
 
At my current consumption rate i'd have to brew 5gal every 2wks. Still only buy craft beers like Heavy Seas or Founders
 
Shiner Bock, Rolling Rock, Leffe Blonde.. or just about any random 6-packs that sound tasty.

I'm always ready to fork over a few more dollars to get something with good taste to me.. no more 30-packs of BMCs.
