Modelo is far from cheap. It is one of the most expensive beers here in Mississippi.It's $8 or more for a six pack! I love it though!

RE: what's your favorite cheap beer?
I guess I never actually said what kind of beer I buy when I buy cheap beer. 99% of the time when I buy beer if I'm not buying imports or microbrews, I buy Natural Light. If you took Natural Light and poured it into a cup and also poured Bud Light into a different cup, and made some hater who says "Natural Light tastes like crap" but drinks Bud Light taste both of them - I guarantee you if they picked them correctly it would be pure luck. Natural Light tastes exactly like Bud Light. I like Miller Lite too though, it's just too expensive for me when Natty tastes so good and only costs $3.50 or less for a six pack compared to $5 or more for a six pack. When I was a freshman and sophomore in College, Miler Light used to be on the cheap end. Then all of a sudden the prices got jacked up to exactly the same as Bud Light.

RE: what's your favorite cheap beer?
I've heard the same about Corona and the clear glass... and actually a good reason why most stronger beers use tinted glass...
We have a few places like your Winking LIzard called Flying Saucer... 200+ something beers... a friend of mine has a plaque (sp??) on the wall stating he's tried everyone... but in reality since they used to be our customer we just fibbed the database to show he had tried all beers
and all we got was a measly free pint of **** water!

I'm jealous.
Have you ever tried Corona in a can? They just recently started selling it down here and it doesn't taste skunky at all to me. The same thing goes for Heineken. But every bottle of Corona I ever had tasted skunky....even in Mexico. Supposedly it is because they use clear bottles. The light that passes through the clear glass (or green glass in Heineken's case) supposedly skunks it. That's why the majority of beer makers use brown glass bottles. However, I have never had a Miller High Life or MGD that tasted skunky and they both come in clear bottles...

In my area we have a resturaunt called the Winking Lizard, they have over 100 beers to choose from and have a draft of the month that includes a glass that goes with the beerif you choose to pay for it. We also have a bar call 69 Taps, obviously it has 69 kinds of beers, on tap.

Didn't know they put Corona in a can now. I'll have to look for that next time I buy beer, which will probably be saturday. Also at that resturant, they have a beer tour that's setup by the brewmaster, drink all the beers on the tour and fill in the booklet they give you and you attend a party at the end of the year and get a jacket.
www.winkinglizard.com - Next time you're in Ohio I suggest you check it out. The food is alright, nothing to write home about.
Another of mine and my friends favorites is Lenien Kugel, a Wisconsin micro brew. If you ever see it, get the Berry Weiss, soooo good.

That place looks frickin sweet! When I go to a place like that, I normally don't give a crap what the food tastes like. Although they usually do need to be able to make a good plate of Nacho's to keep the wife happy.
I totally LOL'd at Ang's statement in the post 2 above this one
