    Ha ha, figured this would show up. HATED it when I had it on draft the first time. Then I saw the episode of Brewmasters where Sam goes to Egypt and collects the yeast, chooses the fruit in the market, and tries it for the first time not knowing what to expect.

    After that I opened a bottle, and actually appreciated it. It still tasted weird, but it was a good weird. Maybe it was the first craft beer/TV show tie-in, and I bought it.

    Infinium. One of the worst drinking experiences I've ever had. I could barely choke down the small glass of it on NYE. Just pure awful.

    On a similar note it seems that mixing Honey Weiss and Berry Weiss yields a monstrosity known as the Honey Bear. I have never had it, but friends that are Leinies fans swear by it. I guess in order to make Leinies taste good you need to mix two of their mediocre beers together.

    Left hand wake up dead - mmm, burnt plastic
    GI 312 - for some reason I find it gag worthy
    Busch or rolling rock. There's a time and purpose for cheap beer, that's what keystone and high life light are for
    NG twomen and totally naked. Not worth it even when on special

    I have heard nothing but negativity regarding anything BrewDog has done.

    I honestly refuse to buy Rogue based on principle. Everything I've heard about the people that own/run the brewery and the way they treat their customers has been awful. I've never had a single sip of any of their beers, and I hope not to. I don't care if I'm missing out on anything. Bad business ethics doesn't deserve patronage, which is why I'll never buy another Apple product either.

    Great Lakes Nosferatu has been the only one in my limited experience that I am done with. Tasted like straight grapefruit juice, and I'm not a fan of grapefruit juice. Want to attribute it to the batch, but I've noticed others reviews that mention the grapefruit.

    Never say Never, but I would never drink Southern Tier Pumking again.

    Why is there all this hate on Pumking (and ST in general)?

    Had a Brooklyn Octoberfest on a buddy's wedding trolley yesterday and it was pretty raunchy. First one I can recall having and won't be giving it a second try any time soon.

    The #1 answer here is the "correct" answer: Voodoo Maple Donut. That was my last straw with Rogue. After getting mugged for $13 on that crap I've officially sworn them off entirely.
    Also, the nasty abomination known as Ass Kisser Chocolate Box. Not nearly as bad as the Voodoo but still just not for me.

    On a side note- all haters feel free to send me their unwanted Southern Tier Blackwater stouts.

    Yeastie Boys Rex Attitude... Good God, that beer tasted like carbonated iodine. Not for the timid.

    On that note, I thoroughly enjoyed Voodoo Maple Doughnut.

    I don't get the distaste for Old Stock Ale. I quite fancy it.

    I'll never have Budweiser Chelada again. Or so I hope.

    Brewdog's Storm still makes me angry when I see it on the shelf.

    Kern river Isabella blonde. I'm a huge fan of everything they do, except that one. Two drinks and it fed the weeds.
    Rumor mill from the brewery has said it will be retired. They have so many other amazing beers that deserve to be year round instead of that bud light of craft beer.

    Shipyard (except Export on tap only, everything else is pure swill), Gritty's, anything and everything Geary's, Moat Mountain, and Superbrew 15- just look at the reviews if you're having a shitty day and need a pick-me-up

    I saw an empty 12 pack box of Red Dog in the alleyway the other day, which gave me a chuckle. However, someone forced me to drink a taste of Busch Light a few weeks ago (I was hanging out with some young people who wanted to play something called "Three Cup," similar to Beer Pong). Never. Again.

    If you want to talk non-macro, then Hinterland's Winter Land. Some people can stomach that stuff, but I say no way.

    Another vote for (or against) Voodoo Doughnut.
    Also, DFH Midas Touch, Raison D'Etre, and Festina Peche; Ommegang Aphrodite; and Lindeman's Faro.
