Really cheap.

58 cents a quart. Somehow we survived.

PBR (Pabst Blue Ribbon).

Rolling Rock.

Miller High Life.

Schaeffer. (sp?)

Heineken has begun to taste like soap.

But the worst of all: Budweiser.

The thing for me was they were mostly cheap and if they were seriously cold I didn't care that they tasted like horse piss.

These days I'm savoring cold Balboa Roja in bottles.

but only once!

If ExLax Didn't work, Sterling would.

...the Alpha Beta on the corner sold BEER.

The cans were white with lite blue bands around the top and bottom and the word "BEER" in the middle.

Don't recall the price, but the 6-packs were very cheap.

You would also run into Old Milwaukee, Milwaukee's Worst (Best), and Dog Style (Old Style) in the dorm.

My personal cheap go-to was Pabst Blue Ribbon. It didn't make me cringe like those others did.

I refused to drink Shitz (Schlitz) or Pearl Light, and the absolute worst beer I ever tasted was an unholy abomination called Texas Pride.

But the price was right for broke college kids, unfortunately.
