Default Whats the worst beer you've ever tasted.

I reckon I've found the worst tasting Lager/Pils type beer ever... someone bought me an Asian mixed pack for a pressie... Most of them have been fine... in fact the Sapporo was splendid. I've just got to a beer called Tsingtao and it's bleeding foul..... Still drinking it though just in case it's a case of the tastebuds getting acquainted. If you made it yourself in a home brew kit you'd be disappointed I reckon.

Yuck...

Whats your worst beer...

Skol.

My Uncle-in-Law used to bring a 6-pack of it to any house 'dos', put it in the kitchen, declare that he'd 'just have one of these cold ones while mine chill' and then guzzle all the proper stuff the other gullible fools had brought.

Once, when I was so desperate for a drink that I would have had creme de menthe if we'd had it in (you know what its like, hot summer's evening, kids in bed and OH down the pub so you can't get something decent) so I had a can.

OMG. It tasted worse than stale dog wee smells.

I'm sure it's not the worst, but I can't think of anything else for now...so Carlton Draught...hate the stuff!

I don't mind Tsingtao...but like a lot of asian beers it does have a strange metallic taste.

There's a South Australian beer called Southwark that gets my Aus vote. I buy Carlton Draught in pubs when I can't make up my mind re the other beers. So not so bad in my view.

I just think it has a really nasty yeasty odour about it...doesn't taste much better.

Not opposed to Aus beers...I even quite like XXXX Gold...hangover to the Qld days!

Must try that XXXX gold as it's one of the cheapest beers on the market. I never minded the old XXXX, wonder if it's the same.

It's not really beer, there's no alcohol in it and it has no taste

Try the XXXX bitter if in Brisbane, an aquired taste that gets the eyeballs rattling

VB. Innocently drunk my way through 10 cans or so in the outback on a camping trip. Whopping hangover, akin only to that experienced with White Lightning. Took two days to get back on the road. Rancid stuff.
