15 or 20 years ago when I was a poor college student, I was a huge fan of Mickey's. My favourite thing was that they had 22oz bottles for exactly half the price of a 40oz, so I could get 4oz of free, delicious malt liquor.

I actually picked up a bottle a couple of years ago in a fit of nostalgia. Man, I had horrible taste in college...

I'm amazed! All these suave and sophisticated up-scalers 'fessing up to have drunk malt Liquor in the penurious days of their youth. Elelavte "few" to almost "many" FTers.

Cheap beers? In Texas, 1950s, back then dominated by Lone Star & Pearl, at 7-11s, Muehlbach and Southern Select were among the cheapest overall, but the chain of convenience stores used to offer "Specials", Regal and Edelweiss (Both from KC?) at $ .78 - $ .89 a sixpack, steel cans, church key required. Shiner (Bock only) was cheaper then then LS or Pearl, no cult status and with a narrow spectrum of convicted guzzlers, mostly older from Middle/Eastern European communities.

"Micky's" must have been among the original "easy opens", a pioneer of pull-tabbery.

My church key still hangs from an old key ring, and somewhere I've a couple of old Shiner wooden hulls for returnables.

I only drink on occassion now but when I was in college I was well conditioned. Schlitz malt was my favorite. I could put upwards of a case down in a day. I fact I could put close to a case down in a Saturday morning softball game. What the hell, we always lost anyways. ;)
