Mad dog
There was a time in my life when I was drinking Mad Dog to impress a guy I liked while he was smoking pot to impress me. Come to find out when we started dating that I wasn't much of a drinker and would get violently ill after hanging with him while he wasn't much of a pot smoker and would go home and curl up in the fetal position in horrible anxiety after hanging out with me. We dated for over six years. Ahhh young love. :-\
QuoteIs that for real? The best slogan ever!
Yup you could always find Bubs in our basement wet bar.
Old Milwaukee and Corona.
Then after taking shrooms, pizza or flakies.

Back when I lived in Puerto Rico I used to drink this swill, since it was the local cheapo beer. Can't stomach it anymore, had one last time I went to visit and nearly puked my guts out.

My first job out of college I was a Behaviorist (cool title, but shitty job) and I worked with a lot of brothers. To fit in I'd drink Blue Bull (Schlitz Malt Liquor) and Colt 45 with them. That stuff was fairly nasty, but even worse was Champale.

Unlike most alcoholic drinks this leaves a fresh taste in your mouth.

Greenwood Car Bomb (Named for my old neighborhood in Sea-Town, and known only to a brave few) - Simple, effective, disgusting.
Made like an Irish Car Bomb, subbing Trumpeter Imperial Stout (14% ABV.) for the child-safe Guinness (something like 3.4% ABV.), and in place of the Jameson/Bailey's mix, sits a festering 2 ounces of butterscotch annihilation known as Stroh 80 (80% ABV, butterscotch flavored rum). It's more a rite of passage than a beverage. There's no reason other than stupidity to drink one of these, let alone more than one in a sitting.
The only thing worse is a Banana Cognac, and no, I won't tell you what's in it (hint - it's not bananas).
In 2nd grade I drank a bunch of Scope because I thought it would get you drunk.
that was a bad idea
wine coolers in high school
Busch Light draft in college
Drank some of that generic Beer back in the day. Hamm's, Boone's Farm, Mad Dog 20/20, and lots of Natural Light after band practices.
Yep, tons of shitty band practice beers. Some old favs from 20 years ago were MeisterBrau, St. Ides, Milwaukee's Best, J.R. Ruperts (?lol? haven't seen it since 1993) and the ubiquitous Pabst Blue Ribbon
This is popular with the Choctaw tribe in my area:

Yeah, I've read about really bad alcoholics (mostly NAs) who will steal aftershave and hairspray when they're jonesing really hard. That shit is sad. Keith Whitley, the country singer, did that towards the end.

Pilsner Club if I'm not mistaken.
I haven't had a Rolling Rock since college, but I don't remember it being that bad.
Also haven't had a Milwaukee's Best or a Natural Light since college & I do remember them sucking.

Trash Can Punch was called Whoop Juice down here. Good stuff.
Old style and Blatz were the two beers we had on tap in college. Once we got the mailman to do a beerbong of old style ...he used to come in to our house while doing his route and just sit around our stale luke warm taps for like an hour and pound...he was always hammered when he left...fucking Wisconsin...people are just baaaaad drunks, alll of em.
We also used to have "wop" parties because the punch we made was called Wopituli or something bizarre...one of those big plastic trash cans filled with Everclear and some kind of coolaid like punch..and yeah...just like Deaners picture it was barf city and then a ballpein hammer headache the next day.
To this day i still cannot smell scoth without wretching because when I was in 5th grade I got into mom and pops liquor cabinet. I dindt really know what alcohol was all about, so I poured myself a pint glass of warm scoth and had it slammed before I even tasted the burn and it was way too late. I was sick for a week
For real, Everclear is from the devil. It's been 20+ years since I've drunk any and I can still remember exactly how it tastes.
Shitty Stuff? Never, sister. NFW.

Well, there's no cognac in it either.
P.S. - You
hate the smell and taste of beer? Who the hell raised you?
Went through a very brief period of drinking Black Label when I was much younger. Thats when I decided if thats all I can afford then I don't need to drink. Worst beer I've ever had besides somebodies homemade bullshit.
Also, does Black Label still exist? Don't recall seeing it in years
Smirnoff ice... Me and my mates began our drinking lives on this shit. Can't hack it now, tastes of sugar and perfume!
Beer:
Faxe 10% - This shit was disgusting. Had barely any flavour, didn't help that we'd drink it warm. Purely disgusting, but got you drunk fast.
Lucky - well.....
Lakeport - water and alcohol would do the same thing.
James Ready - Ok for one beer, anything more and you just suck.
MacLays - The first three are ok, but when you get to nine, the taste kind of sets you off.
Carling - This beer can be somewhat manageable if it's super ice cold. If it's warm, be cautious.
In High School, all the girls that drank, drank this:

Thanks bro, I worked hard on that one. Just for you I'll tell the story:
Senior skip day, Starkville High School, May 1988. We went out to my friend's parents' cabin on a private lake. In the middle of the lake was a floating platform for laying out, drinking, fucking (if you were lucky), etc. We smoked some joints and then started drinking Peach Nehi with Everclear in it. Great day, everything good. We decided to swim back to shore and go somewhere else. Midway through swimming back to shore the blackouts started. I remember somebody having to help me get out of the damn water cause I was losing muscle control fast. Back then I chewed tobacco and I do remember taking a big chaw of Levi Garrett and putting it in my mouth. Do not remember spitting it back out or spitting at all. Actually this was probably a good thing as it pretty much started the puke train running otherwise I may have had alcohol poisoning. Next thing I remember me and my best friend were lying in the backyard of another friends house with people all standing around asking if they should call an ambulance. By this time I had puked up everything there was to puke up, so I told the friend to drive me home. I get home and my parents weren't home so I went straight to bed and passed out. Next thing I know the overhead lights are on and my mom is telling my dad to look for something to make me throw up. I told them I already had and to leave me the fuck alone. Next morning my mom told me if that happened again she was sending me to rehab. Of course it did happen again, but I was in college by then and my mom never found out about those times.
Relski(sp?) vodka. Boones farm strawberry hill for chaser. Always ended in fighting or fucking or jail.
I brought Mickey's grenades to every BYOB party in college. The rebuses always got progressively harder as I progressed through the sixer. Couldn't handle the hangovers anymore and decided to start beer snobbin'.

a Germa-Okie-Cherokke hillbilly & a woman he picked up in Okinawa. it's a miracle that my body can process any alcohol at all. i still hate beer, but i recently picked up cider; it's the best i can do.
'Heidelburg' is the worst I've ever had- & I didn't have it for long. Drank half a can & told my friend who was offering them, "No thanks".
Yah, Lucky's caps had those puzzles way back in the day, so did Mickey's as I recall?

Had one of those recently. Also had the PumpKing. right now I'm haveing and Oakshire Ill Tempered Gnome.
When I was a kid it was hard to get people to boot at the beer store but we had these wine stores that were easier to buy from so we drank tons of champagne and schnaps. The hangover from a big bottle of peach schnaps is pretty bad.

A friend used to live in Cincinnati and we'd go by the brewery and pick up a keg of Hudy De-lite when we were down there. Pretty sure they used to sell it for around $1/six pack(mid-80s). Another buddy of mine came over the other night with a mixed bag of beers, one of 'em was Hudepohl, but it's not brewed in Cincinnati any more. Brought back some cool memories.
