27. I must take issue with Genny Cream being number 1

Mon Jul 16, 2012, 06:51 PM

Jul 2012

I haven't had it in years, but I used to have it pretty regularly and it was a pretty good beer, particularly for the price point. Whenever we needed cheap beer in quantity, our first choice was Lost Lakes Pilsner, and our second was Genesee Cream.

I've had seven of them, too, but most not often. Other than GCA, probably had Icehouse the most, back in college. Definitely not great stuff--haven't suffered it in years
