The Cheap Beer Taste Test


People across the world have amazing ways to kick off the new year, and for our celebration, three of us here at Happy Hour decided to do a cheap beer taste test. The three sampled a number of cheap beers and made very simple notes on each without knowing what was what. Check out the results:


ABSTRACT

Most beer comes from Heaven as a gift from God. Some beer, however, is rooted deep in the pits of a tasteless Hell. THESE are the beers we came together on this first day of a new year to analyze. Enclosed are the findings.


PROCEDURE

The Fraternity of Alcohol Research Tasting Studies [FARTS] conducted a single blind taste test of fifteen (15) cheap garbage beers.

There was a 25% attrition rate. (That means one (1) out of four (4) participants gave up after tasting eight (8) gross beers.)

There was a 0% vomiting rate. In addition, there was a 100% giggling rate at the idea of a 69% of anything rate.

RESULTS

After relentlessly conducting research on the given topic, [FARTS] found the following:

TOP 3 CHEAP BEERS*
Miller High Life, Busch Light & Coors Light
(Excerpt from Raw DataMiller High Life - Fairly unoffensive, kinda dry. Alan says it's a winner.)



BOTTOM 3 CHEAP BEERS*
Milwaukee Special Reserve, Heineken & MGD64
(Excerpt from Raw Data: MGD64 - Remarkable Negative Smell, Maybe olives or pizza crust. "Compared to this beer, Jon's ass smells like an apple pie.")



HONORABLE MENTION*
Labbatt Blue Light, Pabst Blue Ribbon & Red Dog
(Excerpt from Raw DataRed Dog - Metallic, not crisp, maybe salty. Lick a stamp residual finish.)



*BASED ON BEERS TESTED IN SAID CONDITIONS, ORDER VARIES BY RESEARCHER

CONCLUSION

All [FARTS] participants agreed that all of these beers were bad. The entire testing facility smelled of urine from the similarly urine-colored beers. All [FARTS] participants were delighted that Heineken scored low on the list and resulted in lots of giggles. The term [FARTS] was of course conceived following the taste test and each participant drank five (5) beers a piece.
