anyone know uf they still make Stroh's? It was made in Detroit. I used to really like it. Can't get here in the south if they still do make it.

I happen to like Michelob Ultra.. But then, I am not a beer snob and I've never cared much for the skunky or dark euro beers. Most of the micro beers are pretty nasty too, IMO.

But to me the king of all bad beers will always be Lucky Lager.. the kind with the riddles on the caps. Now THAT is bad beer.

Sorry for the table format, I did my best. The table at the source link reads easier.

Came across this nifty little trick about copy/paste on FR awhile back.
(Hope this works with your browser.)
Highlight the selection you want to copy.
Then click on "selection source"- the text plus the html are highlighted, then just copy/paste.
Easier than digging it out of the source code.

I thought it was cool, anyway! :)
I am so easily amused!

I didn't see any crappy Mexican beers listed
I will bet Dos Equis, Carona, and Bohemian didn't have enough volume or respondents to qualify for the list

I just happen to have a Red & Black can of Carling Black Label beer in my hand right as I'm reading this. I am one of those who like its taste.

As for the others on this "bottom 50" list, I've unfortunately had several of them, and without exception, they are truly poor.

By the way, I enjoy Genny Cream on occasion - but it is more a "niche" taste that is worth trying sometime, not a beer to tout as an all around "good beer".

"Does anyone remember Carlin Black Label Beer?"

I drink scotch and one time at an O'Club somewhere in Alabama I asked for a [Johnny Walker] Black Label on the rocks. The barkeep looks at me funny and asks me "Whuat?". I told her, "Black Label on the rocks, please". She goes to the back for a couple of minutes and comes back with a can of beer which she pours over ice in a glass. The beer: Carlin Black Label.

That's how I learned that in the south you don't drink scotch, you drink whiskey.

I always said that anyone who could drink Iron City Beer had to have a cast-iron stomach! Nasty stuff!

[AFPhys]

Agreed: it seem unfair to include the NA beers given their constraints, though including the "low alcohol" seems perfectly fair.

The label's owned by Pabst but it's conract-brewed by Miller. The hops are gone in the taste.

I loathe Miller Genuine Draft. Icky poo.

Genny Cream Ale is deadly.

They recently upgraded Genny Cream's process. They now put it through the horse three times instead of just two.

[Dick Bachert]

I though I was the only human alive who remembered this classic!

The only beer proudly advertised -- like many of the current politicians with whom we are afflicted -- with its head ON the bottom.

[Pappy Smear]

Here's my brands. I'm no beer snob.

[BW2221]

Like most cities, Detroit once had a number of local beers - Goebbel's, Pfeiffer's, Stroh's, E&B, Frankenmuth, etc.

[relictele]

They need to expand list since the top 10 slots will be taken up by Bud Light.

[humblegunner]

Anybody remember Texas Pride?

Yes, from back in my ramen-eating extreme poverty era.

Not a happy recollection!

[toddlintown]

Someone posted a few days ago about Miller ruining Leinenkugel. I think they make great beers.

[Jim Noble]

What, they don't make Utica Club in the 64-oz. plastic bottles anymore?

Corona is swill. The only reason I like Sol is because it's light on taste, almost citrus like, and can be guzzled really fast when its hot outside. IOW, it's a great golfing beer. And you don’t need a lime to make it taste better.
