Best CHEAP Beer??

There hais been plenty of discussion here about the best overall beer in the US and/or the World - well what about the cheap beer that costs less than $5 or $6 for a six pack?

For some reason, Natural Light in a bottle tastes surprisingly good to me.

Would love to hear what everyone elses favorite cheap beer is.

In Prague recently I enjoyed Bernard 10. It could be had in non-touristy bars for about $1.00 for 1/2 liter. I imagine the price to take home in bottles is about the same.

Aldi sells a beer called Northstar in the US. It's slightly sweet but for $4.99 per 12 it can be agreeable.

The cheapest beer in the world is that consumed by a friend of mine called Dermot.
It's cheap because it costs him nothing because he has short arms and deep pockets.
He's a tightwad basically - but all his friends let him get away with it because he has a gorgeous wife whom most of us have slept with without him knowing.
So whilst his beer is cheap it holds valuable memories for us.
Ain't life sweet !

Where in the US? Aldi locations I've visited in IL and TN don't sell beer, unlike all of the Aldi's and Lidl's I visited overseas!

Molson Golden can be had for $6 or less per 6-pack, and although it's an acquired taste, it's my favorite.

NC ALDIs do, athough only one brand of Dutch beer, for some reason.

I actually am partial to Shiner Bock. I can usually find it for $6/6-pack, sometimes as low as $4 when it goes on sale.

Hopefully my next 100 won't take 5 years.
