Senior year at IC we used to kill these!
are those the ones that came in bottles in the waxed cardboard box? I had my chare of that crapI posted it in another thread, but we’d get a CASE of Piels longnecks from Students Choice for $5.
After the 2nd one, you almost didn’t notice that they tasted like azz.
Genny Cream Ale aka Genny Screamers.
Ooof.
For me, the worst was the Matt’s beer ball.
It had a strong metallic aftertaste that was just awful.

Red Dog was our penalty beer playing azzhole for hours on Kilington ski trips!! A-hole had to finish one completely before the new president won or do a penalty of two more.I had to chug a Red Dog once when I was 17 during a drinking game and just found it absolutely disgusting.

Hellaciously bad swill.Bought a case of this swill with change we scrounged up. Nasty
When I was an undergrad, living with my buddies on Clarendon St., when we were too impaired to drive and needed reinforcements, we would order Milwaukee’s Best in bottles for delivery from a convenience store a few blocks away (I’m totally forgetting the name of it now, but it was near Westcott St. I believe).When I was in college, we drank a lot of Milwaukee's Best light. I went back for reunion weekend several years later and had one, and it hurt my stomach.

Also, there was a bar we used to frequent that had one dollar Schaefer bottles on Thursday nights. As a cash-strapped college student, I used to think it was a great deal... until I spotted some at a liquor store my senior year, and saw that it sold for about $9 bucks per case.

Two cases for $20.10, precisely.
Awful beer, but couldn’t beat the price.
Graby's Convenience on the corner of Euclid and Wescott, a gamechanger, and a lifesaverSabastino's definitely delivered beer (and didn't card, since the driver had already made the trip) in that era. Good times!
The Anheuser Busch brewery in Baldwinsville started its life as a Schlitz brewery. There is a brand you can add to the bad beer list.I think that was brewed in AB Bville in like 1998. I had a friend that worked weekends there while I was in grad school and I remember him sharing a couple of those Tequizas. We aren’t friends anymore.
That’s it! They were a life saver around midnight when going there would have been irresponsible.Sabastino's definitely delivered beer (and didn't card, since the driver had already made the trip) in that era. Good times!

I was spending an afternoon at my son's fraturnity while some of the guys were playing pong. They were running short of beer so I volunteered to go on a beer run. I was directed to a deli about six blocks away to buy a few cases of some brew like Milwaukee's Best or something like that. When I paid for the beer the Deli guy asked, "ATO parent"?When I was an undergrad, living with my buddies on Clarendon St., when we were too impaired to drive and needed reinforcements, we would order Milwaukee’s Best in bottles for delivery from a convenience store a few blocks away (I’m totally forgetting the name of it now, but it was near Westcott St. I believe).

I remember my Dad buying this stuff because it was cheap. That and Utica Club.
Looks like a urine sample. There was a story about a patient who was supposed to drop off a unire sample at her doctor's office. She couldn't find the bottle the doc had given her so she used a half pint liquor bottle. On the way to the doctor's office she stopped at the deli to get a sub, when she got back in her car the liquor bottle was gone. There is probably one less bourbon drinker around.Not sure it is yet time to cross the Rubicon to include 40s, but this was the best deal when I was on campus in 1998. And if you think warm beer tasted bad, this was much worse
Only 99c at Abdo's next to Brewster Boland!
And this second picture sums up freshman year
