Mickey’s Big Mouth, cheap little hand grenades for maximum broke underage thump.
I remember seeing that stuff in the store when I was a kid, lol.
My beer taste runs expensive
the cheapest I'll go, usually.

Ah, the cheap beer of my youth...
Meister Brau
Mickey's Big Mouth
Milwaukee's Best
Old Milwaukee
Piel's
**Genesee Cream Ale
I remember when we "stepped up" to Busch Beer and Miller Genuine Draft, lol
**We avoided Genny Cream Ale when we could because you often ended up with what were called "Genny Screamers", lol.
*Honorable mention goes to Mad Dog 20/20. Not a beer of course, but we used to get cases of MD 20/20 and stick the bottles in the snow bank.

Stone Pilsner was recently released, for US distribution. About $10/6 pack. It is outstanding and currently in my rotational line up.
Lucky Lager. The puzzle caps are kind of a built-in sobriety test.
Narragansett, aka “Ganset” are a New England cheap beer go to when one is craving something thin and crappy. Not bad actually!
Bold of you to assume I didn't start the day stupid.
I'm good with Ham's when I'm stateside - a thirty pack lasts a long while and honestly tastes pretty good, when I'm home it's either homebrew, Laker, or James ready or Alpine
I used to be picky, but now I've got two moods with beer - I either want something fancy or "anything will do"

IK. I should have clarified, I meant it doesn't get me drunk, just "more" stupid.
Mickey's! This brought back memories. These usually turned up in college but not until we already had too much. So yes, it was like drinking a hand grenade at that point.
I'm a self professed beer snob but not beyond drinking what's offered. Some less expensive variants that I've enjoyed lately at our rehearsal space include Narragansette, Bush Light, Rolling Rock, Pabst, and Labatt Blue. There's always a rotation of something different depending on whose buying at the time.
I've seen Yuengling mentioned a number of times and that's always a solid go to as well. I'm in Pittsburgh and it's hard to remember when you couldn't get it here. My brother, living in Allentown at the time, used to bring it home when visiting or when we went on fishing trips. It was a rare treat at the time, now it's everywhere.
