When we got back to the house and realized what it was, we laughed our asses off. Now its just a big inside joke with us, so whenever its gonna be one of those bender nights when you cant even tell what youre drinkin anymore, we always go PGD. Its actually not bad either, as far as welfare beers go.

PGD is a good choice...I really got into Centebury Lager (made by the same people) when I lived in Prince George, but you can find it but rarely here, and never on tap.

PGD is certainley a very good beer for the price... have only seen it in edmonton though.

due to some recent hiccups, me and my pals might have to revert back to cheap beer. The other night we picked up 24 mt. crest lager... and i must say it is by far the most awful drink i have ever had... the clear creek ice made by the same brewery is way stronger and it even tastes far better...

My favorites are Brewhouse & Lucky, man have those beers saved me since I have been a poor college student lol.

Busch is my favourite. $29.95 for 24 and doesn't taste like donkey urine.

"Punishment beer" is hilarious.

Ive never tasted beer as terrible as TNT. The first and only time I had TNT was via shotgun... it was lukewarm and I had to pull off one of the biggest puke 'n' rally's Ive ever had.

I find with Beer, you get what you pay for when it comes to cheap. My brother buys Lucky lager, and that stuff is crap.
Then again, when I was young and broke, I was a Black Label man, and Rainier.

Two favorites,

1) Heineken (not budget)
2) Free (totally budget)

Coors Light is decent as it doesn't really taste like anything.

Keystone Light is good for drinking games.

No mention of Colt 45 or Big Bear? One works everytime and the other is Big Bear. What more do you need?

I can remember drinking Beer Beer (not a stutter). Now THAT was a budget beer.

Now if you like gambling on cheap beer go with Club. Any batch of Blue that doesn't taste enough like Blue becomes Club. Some are very very good. More are very bad.
