My friends and I want to start trying different types of beer instead of drinking coors all the time. One of my friends introduced me to busch light a couple days ago and that was alright. What are some beers that come in 24 or 30 packs that I can get for around the same price as a 30 of coors?

thought we were talking cheap beers. I dont consider RR a cheap beer. You should grow up and learn to spell, a real man drinks beer, not bear, and not RR either.

I shouldn't have read this thread in the morning, its making my stomach hurt.  But yes PBR is my default cheap beer. Bottles if at all possible (I don't even know if they have bottles any more) cheap cigar smoke also enhances the flavor.

As wise man once said:  "It aint got a blue ribbon for nothin"

Yeah rolling rock isn't cheap.

What you see at your grocer is what there is basically, anything else will be "too special" to find, and there are only a few beers that come in 24-30 packs anyways.

Although 2 18 long necks of Labatt Blue is always a good choice

I think we got a winner, PBR is the best cheap beer available especially if your a skier, and if you find it in a 40, wells thats just the best of the best of the cheap

blatz, if your in the midwest, kokanee if your out west. if you've been drinking coors light, try switching to coors golden.

The only cheap beer I'll drink is PBR.  King Cobra tastes like pennies, Natty Ice tastes like watered down 211, etc.  Actually Caguama (sp?) is pretty decent.

But Coors is a midrange, in that price range the greatest beer is clearly BUDWIESER!

Natty Ice is the only beer on earth that is so bad I'd rather just not drink beer.

...and possibly 211....possibly

contrary to popular belief, pbr is expensive compared to a lot of other beers.  It's pretty much a fashion statement unless it's on sale.  In the northwest we have Olympia, and Rainer beer that usually run about 4 bucks less a 30 pack  ( 6 more beers than pbrs 24).  Or you could go with miller high life,  the champagne of beers which is always the same as or less than pbr, and you still get 6 more beers.  Also look into hams, and schmidts. 

if you just wanna get drunk, get some steel reserve in your body.  3 tall cans for about 6 bucks is more than enough for most people.

Where I live PBR costs about the same per bottle as Miller high life, and its only a little bit more than Keystone or Natty Ice or whatever.  And its pretty significantly cheaper than Miller, Bud, etc.

Plus at the 99cent store you can get two bottles for a dollar.

I'm talking about cans homie.  and since everyone is talking about cases, high life wins.  all though by the bottle... it's about the same but some high life and fried chicken?  shiiii
