I'll be honest I love some cheap beer...right now I'm drinking a Paulaner Munich lager which for you may be pretty cheap but for us over here is like 2 quid a bottle. It's nice and everything but I'd only marginally prefer it to Stella which i can get 18 x 440ml for £13 right now.

Here in England it's all about offers....My brand of beer for the week is whichever beer is on the best deal. (while still being 4.8% or above cause I'm not a daft cunt)

Your beer prices vary? Like a stock market? That`s confusing

Beer prices vary store by store. Usually they're within a dollar of eachother. My 30 pack of Genny (12oz cans) used to be $14.99 at the grocery store near my house. They would sometimes have it on sale for $13.99. Sometimes as low as $12.99. Meanwhile a nearby chain store had the same 30 packs at $14.99 all the time, no sale. Now those 30 packs are $15.49 at both grocery stores. I blame it on china as I do everything else wrong in the world.

Years ago I saw a stack of cases of Hamm's at the local Walgreens. It was $10.99 a case. I was tempted to buy some but then I remembered what it tasted like during my College years. So I bought some PBR.

here they can vary a lot....a 4 pack of 440ml stella in my local convenience shop would be like £5.50, I've seen the same size cans on offer in supermarkets for £10 for 18 cans. Most common deals you will get is mix and match ones...so like 3 cases of beer for £21 with the average case price being £10-£12 individually. Have it on 6 packs and singles as well. £6 for a 6 pack or two for £9...etc.

Best prices are coming up over the next 6 weeks, booze is dirt cheap here in the run up to xmas.

Top 11 cheap American beer rated by taste. Dead last is my regular beer - Natty Ice. Right in the middle is Budweiser. He rates Narraganset as number 1.

Anyone else remember generic beer? It came in a white can with half inch black block letters that said beer.

Then there's Mickey's Big Mouth, remember the peel back tops? Back in the early 80's when I was in the military, shipboard firefighters didn't have scott air packs, instead we used a device called an Oxygen Breathing Apparatus (OBA), instead of a compressed air tank, and OBA used a canister that used a chemical reaction to make oxygen, the top of the canister had a peel off top just like a Mickey's, in fire school the instructor said that, "open this sumbitch just like a green hornet" some school boy (who should have stayed in school) asked what he meant, the Chief told him, a Mickey's, the kid still didn't understand, turns out he didn't drink, he washed out after he crapped his pants dropped a hose and ran away.

Anyway, back to cheap beer, Hamms, High Life, and of course Ernie's Brown Derby
