If I had just a couple of bucks and really wanted a beer I'd probably get a High Life: The Champagne of Beers.
 
Back in college I'd have been a bit annoyed with this poll... all we ever drank was Busch Light. It occurs to me I haven't had that stuff in years. I should pick up a 6-pack sometime just for old times sake, though truth be told I don't like it.
 
when i was a junior in college about 4 years ago, i was on spring break and pbr and smirnoff were promoting together...they were handing out these drinks made half with pbr and have with smirnoff ice mixed together...called a pabst smir, lol....they were fantastic!
 
im a fan of good beer. but if im feeling cheap i go for honey brown. for a cheap bottled beer its good.
thats about as cheap as i go.
 
Back in the day, we used to have Pabst (regular and DARK!!!!) on tap at the fraternity 24/7.....much to the annoyance of my girlfriend's father who was the head of the German Dept 2 doors down from the house. I believe they only made the dark in kegs at the time.
 
out of those choices, it would be pbr for me, but my go to for cheap, standard beers are bud bottles or miller lite if its gotta be a can
 
blast from the past!

Any old school Philly denizens here?
Bob and Barbara's Cafe used to have a special, the Bob and Barbara's special:
A shot of Jim Beam white and a can of Pabst Blue Ribbon- $3.00!!! :shock:

Hey PBR is the bomb!!!!

Quite literally. It is the only beer that I have come accross which explodes rather than launches when placed unopened into the campfire. Don't ask me how I know this, but if done properly a beer should launch about 40-50 ft. straight up if heated properly. Miller products seem to fuction the best. PBR, on the other hands merely explodes, throwing an appromately 20 ft. radius of burning material all over the campsite. My wife was rather ticked off when she discovered the holes melted through the seats of our folding camping chairs. Then again, she does know that one of the primary reason me and my buddies go camping is so that we are far enough away from civilization that we can "blow s--- up". (our latest victim was one of those red clay potbellied "chiminea" fire pits which sits on a buddy of mines porch. It ended up with a 6"x6" exit wound and the deck on fire. This was in town and I can't believe the cops didn't show up after the detonation. It was quite loud and the township fire marshall lives next door.)

Pollwise, I would have to go with the highlife. The morning after gastrointestinal pyrotechnics that result from the others are just too much for me.

All the best,


Joe

I love it!

I'll admit if the local bar is out of High Life on tap I'll get PBR in a can for a buck.

(Homer voice) mmm. . . beer.
 
I used to get this generic Beer, , it was a white can with BEER in black letters , nothing else, just beer, $6.40 a case of 24 , 12 ounce cans . warm or cold all you could say about it was it was wet !, Enjoy, Vince
 
I have had some similar stuff. It came it a white can and was stamped with either "Lost Lake" of "Mountain Creek" depending on the variety. While it did detonate fairly well, as far as drinking it your analysis holds true.

All the best,


Joe
 
PBR, heartburn in a can. I'm with you, Brenda, Miller. Champagne is me woman's surname, so I'm bias.
