I have no idea what Corona costs a six pack because they sell in in 12's. Which is $12.99 on sale, $14.99 regular. Modelo is also $12.99 always, and Tecate $10.99.

Even though I made fun of four packs and alluded to the fact that sixes were ok, I don't buy six packs either. I drink too much to be dicking around with six god damned beers at a time.

Or you could buy 2 six packs of better beer and have 12 beers still. Jesus gave you two hands for a reason.

Every now and then Schnuck's will have Schlafly on sale where 2x6 packs are cheaper than a 12 pack. It makes me scratch my head.

Also -

PBR isn't that bad. And Busch isn't too terrible either. But don't you dare compare High Life to Tecate. High Life might be the most disgusting beer I've ever drank.

Niiiiiiiice. I think I might just have to get one of those on the way home today. The 25th was Oberon day, wasn't it?

Busch I can't drink more than 1 at a time, and that's really saying something.

My only experience really is the few times that I drank like a dozen at a time, so I don't really remember a whole lot about how it tastes after one.


PBR really isn't bad though. I just hate that I'm called a hipster whenever I get it. I went into a gas station that had a 4 pack (your favorite) of Budweiser available for $4.99. Then they had a 6 pack of PBR for $5.99. I'd rather drink Budweiser, but for the quantity and unit price difference I had to go with PBR.

I bought a six-pack of Busch tallboys the other week. Enjoyed that.

PBR became a "hipster" beer because it was decent and cheap. It's still decent and cheap so I still buy it.

It's usually not economical to do this. Although I am aware of that 2x6 < 12 trick they sometimes do, and am on the lookout for it. For some reason I will piss away thousands of dollars on crazy [expletive] but won't spend and extra $.25 for beer.

I'm very frugal with beer. Frugal.
