Cheap College Beers, Ranked

The best of the worst.

Cheap College Beers, Ranked

College is an expensive time. Most of us have to resort to the worst of the worst when it comes to beer selection. Unless you're picking up a 6 pack of Imperial Double Indian Pale Ales for your philosophy club meeting, these are the domestics you're probably putting down on a Friday night. Or Monday night. Whatever works for you.

NOTE: These shitbrews are presented in a very particular, well researched, and undebatable order.

6. Keystone Light

Keystone, in any variation, is the worst beer in existence. It has the aroma of a stagnant pool of creek water. Its taste resembles that of your high school football pads. The only excuse to buy this beer is for camping trips, maybe tailgating, and some good old fashioned self loathing. However, to be fair, Keith Stone is a stroke of marketing genius.

5. Rolling Rock

A beer that self identifies as "extra pale." When your beer tastes like nothing, that's probably a fair description. Rolling is cheap, but so are other beers so there's really no reason to go with this one unless your favorite color is green. However, that's a really poor way to make a decision.

4. Pabst Blue Ribbon

This (100% legitimate and definitely not fake) advertisement is the only thing PBR has going for it. Also, if you're running low on cash and still need beer for your philosophy club meeting, this brew is right up your ironic alley. This one may have been in the Top 3 at one point in time, but then they went and sold it to the Russians. Unforgivable.

3. Bud Light

The dad beer. Quality watered down Sunday potion. They make their cans look like little blue footballs and that's what this beer is for: throwing at other people. Not really. Bud Light is the sit-on-your-ass-and-watch-football-all-day kind of beer. And why feel guilty about the calories when you're drinking water with beer flavoring. Their "Up for Whatever" camping offers a nice contrast for when you finally feel like getting off your ass for a Pitbull concert. Dale.

2. Coors Light

When you're entire marketing strategy is based off of the temperature of your beer, who gives a damn about the taste. Coors Light is cold. Real cold. Their cans and bottles even have a magic sticker on them that turns blue when they're cold. You don't even have to touch your beer to check! Even Ice Cube endorses Coors Light. Doesn't get much colder than that.

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
