anyone tried this?
Even cheaper than the PBR, this beer from Minhas Craft Brewery clocks in at 6.2 a.b.v and is about $3 for a six-pack at your local Trader Joe's. The plus side? It tastes much better — slightly malty, with a twang of bitter hops — than the budget cans of your college past.

If it's swill then I will pass. I'm too old to drink [expletive] beer.

Yeah it's better than PBR, but it's pretty crap.

I like PBR. On a hot summer day it's not bad.

Has Victoria been discussed yet? A popular beer in Mexico they say, has been in the US for a few months- I heard about it and tried it today- it has a slightly sweet taste- good.

I had some of that at a dinner party a couple years ago and remember thinking it was awesome. Not because it was a great beer, but because it was a cheap, totally drinkable lager and because it was called Simpler Times, which I find hilarious.
