BADGE OF HONOR

You pile them on top of each other like you're building a stairway to drunkville.
The Jerk On Bike rolled his eyes and tossed the waffle back over his shoulder--before it struck the ground, a stout, disconcertingly monkey-like dog sprang into the air and snatched it, and began to masticate it--literally--for the sound it made was like a homonculus squatting on the floor muttering "masticate masticate masticate".

I don't really get drunk. (I weigh about 54kg, the most I ever drank was half a bottle of Balvenie in around 2.5 hours, minimal impairment (could stand on one leg, recite PI to 20 digits, etc, etc. Got picked as "the sober one" to escort people to the priv, etc.) BAC should have been in the .21 range IMCAC. I should have been unconscious, instead I decided it was time to stop before I got to the "should be dead" range.) Thus, I tend not to go for cheap shit bears because they just taste terrible & don't get me drunk anyway. Therefore:
Laphroaig 10yr. Good whisky, under $40/bottle. Has a strong seaweed aroma, very strong malty/peaty flavour. Very long finish. One of the best cheap whiskys out there, and a classic single malt to boot. Keep your damn beer.

E.O.T.

For the inexpensive stuff, I'm a fan of Rolling Rock and Heineken.  Something about the green bottles I suppose. 

where are you getting your Heineken? I like the stuff quite a bit myself but I never find it anywhere in ME for less than $14 for a 12-pack, usually $8 for a 6-pack. Of course, in my neck of the woods my choices are Hannaford and Hannaford.

Laphroaig 10-year is the best bottle of scotch available in America for under $60 that I am aware of, by far. The 16-year is fucking phenomenal.

But, neither of them are beer.

The only problem with Grolsch, that I've found, is it gets you drunk really fast.  Every time I've had it, one bottle got me buzzed. Two, and I was off my head.  Yet it takes 4 cans of Fosters to get me pleasantly merry and Newcastle Brown Ale...I can drink 7 bottles of the stuff in one night and still be able to walk in a straight line.

Then I just feel distended like a bloated horse and I have to pee every 15 minutes! I am a fragile flower.

further PROTIP: The pisswater Grolsch that gets exported to America is HORRIBLE. The pisswater Heineken is better, because at least you can get it in a can so it won't be skunked. Were I in the islands where the real versions of both can be obtained and where people know how to store green bottles so they DON'T get skunked, I would agree with you.

What's skunked mean?

It's an odor and taste that happens to beer that's old, stored improperly, or subject to hot/cold variations.  Beer gone bad, basically.  You would know it if you smelled it.
