I was wondering what anyone else thought of ? i bought a sixer of stella artois that i could barely drink , i offered two beers to friends ( one a homebrewer, one a homebrewer taste tester) and they both did not like too much. I still have one left for about 6 weeks now, waiting for the well to run dry or something.I did not wish to run the BMC road, just other stuff if we could . So whats the worst?

Bass AleI dunno if it's just me but I have yet to have one I liked.

Fat Tire...bad beer from a great brewery. My favorite New Belgium beer is Skinny Dip.

Definitely not my favorite beer but worst? You need to try some more crap beer I think...

In my order:Fosters: Used to be great football playin' beer, (Fosters Frosty Bowl). They started brewing in Canada and it's been down hill ever since.Bass Ale: Used to be my "Go To" beer at a restaurant. Now, I can barely stand it. Sets my jaw to aching on the first sip.Corona: "Sex in a canoe" beer, (!&*#ing close to water). I've never liked it.Stella: It tried one after hearing everyone rave about what a great import it was. It was meh at the VERY best. I just remind myself that I don't care for it.Firehouse Ales: These are beers brewed for Kroger, (grocery store chain). Thin, watery, some are almost flat. The only thing going for them is, they are cheap.All Terrapin: Up until a couple of years ago, Terrapin Brewery didn't even brew their own beers. They hired it out and snookered the college kids in Athens that this was a "local beer". I find their beers unremarkable in every way.There are more, but, I don't want to dominate the conversation.

There always seems to be one dog in the annual Sam Adams Longshot 6-pack - this year is no exception. The Cranberry Wit it pretty blah (at best).Leinenkugels used to be a regional WI favorite of mine, but not so much anymore. I swear they must use the same nasty ass Cluster hops in all of their beers. The latest one I tried was Fireside Nut Brown (which is a lager). Avoid at all costs. 5 bottles were set aside for boiling brats and onions. So I hear Miller has a beer that's "Triple Hops Brewed"... wonder what that's all about. Anyone try it?

Newcastle Brown Ale - thin, metallic tasting crap.Just about all of the American "can you top this" massively hopped pale ales. It was interesting at first, but it's been done to death. Abita. Don't care what that fat-ass Emeril says, beer sucks.

MAZ: I have to agree that Leinie's has let me down. They used to be relatively innovative (in a good way) and now they just keep coming out with weird stuff. The Summer Shandy thing, The horriffic 1888 Bock that we tried at MarkA's house (nasty), the Sunset Wheat, etc. They seemed to go off the tracks there and then not get their mojo back. I have to say that Sam Adams also comes out with some clunkers as you say. I think they use the exact same yeast in all of their ales and they just don't seem very inspired to me. I would add Blue Moon to the list... I see people wolfing down $12 pitchers of the stuff with an orange in their glass, etc. I haven't had a Bass in awhile, but I used to like it. Last time I had a Moosehead, it was tangy and nasty... a sharp metallic flavor. There are plently of bad beers out there.

Heineken from bottles From a can, or on tap, it is OK, but the skunky bottle offering is not even bratwurst worthy.

[DaBearSox]

Honestly, I do not like Breckenridge Brewery at all. The Vanilla Porter is the only one that I think stands out. To me everything else they make is just blah...

[Big Nake]

Wow, there's a reverse-endorsement. When a beer is not even bratwurst-worthy, you have some damn bad beer.

Maybe it's always the winner of the employee contest with some goofy fruit beer. I remember not thinking much of last year's grape pale ale either.

IIRC, the worst I ever had on a consistent basis was Rolling Rock. That crap needed to be chilled to near freezing temps and then only the first few sips before it climbed 2 degrees tasted ok. After that, it was like giving Pepe LePew a BJ. Sorry to be so descriptive, but if I wanted to suck on something that smelled like a skunk... well, I could suck on a skunk, right? And who wants to do that? Haven't touched the stuff in well over a decade... maybe more.

Corona - 'nuff saidFischer Amber - the stuff from France that comes in really sweet flip top 22oz bottles. I choked down 12 of them over the course of a couple weeks once to get the bottles. Nasty stuff. I have also grown tired of the insanely hopped super IPAs from american breweries. I agree they are overdone. Give me a well balanced, true-to-style beer any day.

Everybody's hatin' on Bass. That's my go to beer on the train between NY & DC. I'll definitely choose it over a Newcastle at a store or restaurant, though Bass is a macro produced by ABI.Stone Pale Ale never impressed me, but it's not terrible. I could never find a bottle of Anvil ESB back when I lived in SD that was carbonated properly, it'd either be a gusher or almost flat, so I just stopped buying them.

hmm, that description reminds me more of St. Pauli girl....

Yeah, I actually like a Bass at certain times. I like it with shellfish like oysters or mussells.
