I can remember 2 we would buy in college with the change from under the seat cushions.

1. Fort Schuyler - I think a case of 24 bottles was $2.99. This was 1975. I haven't seen it since I graduated a year later, but then I haven't looked for it either.

2. Canadian Ace - AFAIK, it was only sold in gallon bottles. The price was somewhere in the area of 50 cents. It was a passaround beer best enjoyed outdoors under a shady tree.

Both of these were bad; watery and bitter at the same time. You were guaranteed a headachy hangover in the morning and one of you would be puking sick before the night was over. These were the Ripple and Bali Hai of the beer world in the mid 70's.

3. Haffenreffer Malt Liquor - I think it came from Rhode ISland. It wasn't as cheap as the others, but the alcohol content per dollar made it a cheap buzz because you might split a six pack with someone. Only 16 oz bottles. Known locally as "Green Meanies" or "Green Death". Reputation well deserved. Possible ingredients included skunk pheromones.

Yours?
