This is for the times when you find yourself seriously low on cash and the choices are limited-what can I drink that will get the job done?
-my answer is: Colt 45 ! |

Hopefully this one of those times for you? Not sure I have ever tried the Colt, but malt liquor definitely has good bang for the buck. Its a tough call - If I were to get to the point that I couldn't afford Busch Light, I might temporarily switch to cheap hard liquor or Mad Dog 20/20 ( ) _________________ I drink to forget my blackouts. |

-I think your answer,Busch Light,will do.I was thinking along the lines of cheap beer rather than liquor,wine,etc.

Hopefully I never get to the point that I can't at least afford Busch light, or then it will get dicey.
I could also drink some Keystone Light or Coors Light, but it would be rough to drop a level from there to something like Milwaukee's Best or Hamms. I would go the malt liquor route too in that case. _________________ I drink to forget my blackouts. |

I agree.Malt liquors seem to have the most taste and ABV when you go for the cheap,Duff type of beer.I haven't yet been able to talk myself into trying a Steel Reserve 211 though.

I've reviewed both Steel Reserve beers and they weren't as bad as I was expecting...  _________________ I drink to forget my blackouts. |

I think you got in my head.. I bought some Mickeys tonight.. It is 105 here and I am dying anyway from the heat, so I thought I would see how bums feel in these conditiions. The answer is "pretty good". I have reviewed this before, but I might have to bump it up a notch. _________________ I drink to forget my blackouts. |

I pretty much drink Coors lite as my normal vice. If...I can't even afford that, I guess I downgrade to...umm, leaving grape juice in the fridge too long  |
