I didn’t know that Schlitz reintroduced the “Classic 60s Formula”.
anybody here ever try it?
Pearl was the worst beer I have ever tasted bar none.
36. Keystone. This is the worst beer currently sold on American soil....
Not that it's good but I'll drink a case of Keystone before I'd hold my nose and try to drink even one rancid tasting Miller light. And he has it at 6th best? Sheesh!
BTW, Miller\Coors makes both Keystone and Miller light. Keystone was always a little brother (cheaper) knock off of Coors made by them.
Hey neighbor gab a ‘ganset
I live pretty close to the writer, i wonder where i can get me some Grain Belt Premium to try out...
I’m a fan of GBP and other Schell’s products. I sometimes drive up to New Ulm, Minnesota, and stock up.
Here’s the GBP distributors:

Rolling Rock was a pretty decent beer until it
was bought by Anheuser-Busch/InBev. Now, unfortunately,
not so much.
Yes, a little outfit called “Anheuser Busch”
I used to drink Rock until that happened. They make Iron City in Latrobe now.
I drink Yuengling now when I drink beer.
He doesn’t have Miller light as the 6th best, it’s the 6th least repulsive. The point of the list is that they’re ALL terrible, but some are more terrible than others.
Old Mill is definitely a drinkable cheap beer. No overly carbonated, so it goes down easy.
AB supposedly takes the New Jersey water and adds the right mix of salts and sulfur to mimic the “Mountain spring water” from the Laurel Highlands.
Like you can reduce a beer to science and make the same product in some place other than its rightful home town.
I second that. Piels is worse than Naty Bo. I used to have a beer can collection which of course involved tasting a wide assortment of beers. And Piels was far and away the worst tasting swill I ever encountered.
I think it may have been a subsidiary of AB, now that you mention it.
But it is the same generic stuff. For the life of me, I don't understand why they even wanted the Rolling Rock label.
I understand about buying out competition and all that, but I honestly can't comprehend why they would want to use a premium label on a very ordinary beer. Sort of like buying mag wheels and getting a premium paint job on your Geo Metro.
Rock had a hipster cachet. You see it on movies and tv from that time. But buying a strong regional brand that is presently hip and throwing away the local market by moving breweries to NJ makes no sense.
I stopped drinking it when they closed Latrobe brewing. I am not the only one.
Yep. All I can figure is that they have a lot of fake hipster wannabes in the NJ market who care more about the label than the content. And, judging by their voting habits, I can say that is all too typical.
Fully agree on Grain Belt as number one but disagree on number three. Coors is crap.
