Keystone Light at Rite Aid.
$10.99 for 30 cans = .366 cents a beer before CRV
You can't beat that. May taste like water but it does the job

Yuck! If you want cheap liquor KING COBRA or MICKEY's 40 oz. malt liquors run $1.99 in fine supermarkets everywhere. That's even cheaper per ounce than Keystone.

I got 2 of these just for me.

Guinness and Amstel Light are the only beers I really drink.

Uh sorry dude but you are wrong.

30 cans of Keystone @12oz a can is 360oz.
$10.99 / 360oz = .0305 cents per oz

1 bottle of Mickeys @40oz a bottle
$1.99 / 40oz = .04975 cents per oz

And it doesn't matter how many bottles you buy, the cost per oz does not get cheaper...
9 bottles of Mickeys @40oz a bottle = 360oz.
9 bottles x $1.99 = 17.91
$17.91 / 360oz = .04975 cents per oz

Believe me kids, I look around for the deals. IMO Mickeys is a lil better than King Cobra but neither of them are really any better than Keystone Light. I have heard from a reliable source that Kestone Light is the very same beer as Coors Light. The silver cans are inspected as they roll down the factory line and any dented cans get a Keystone label, nondented get a Coors label. Inspect the cans and do a taste test yourself and you will see. Not that Coors Light is all that good either, just shows that Keystone isn't any worse.

But hey, if you have the money, by all means go get Guiness, Red Hook, Red Tail, whatever floats your boat. But I'm talking about saving dollars and getting more for your money.

You are right, Steve-O. My math is horrible.

But you'd still have to pay California Redemption value on 30 cans instead of just 1 bottle. Not sure how that figures in.

Thumbs up Guinness for less

My Goodness my Guinness!
Guinness for Strength!
Lovely day for a Guinness!

15 pack of Guinness @ Sam's wholesale for $15. I took it one (15 pack) to the golf course with me today and played like a stumbling pub-ite!! Not to worry, my friends helped me out a little with it.

A little.

Mickeys may taste a lil better than King Cobra, but you can't beat King Cobra's WIDE MOUTH bottle! Makes it easier to drink your fo'tie before it gets warm!
