    Default If on the Cheep !

    Ezra Brooks for bourbon (has a cork top & 90 proof vs. JD 80 proof), O'Leary's for Irish cream (much creamier than baileys), Seagram7 vs. V.O. or any other blended, Finlander for Vodka, (but its still not cheap ! grrr,I love good vodka)
    Now Beer ? Thats a hard choice !! I drink mostly dark beer so its never cheap, regular beer its euro (becks,st.paulie,grolsh..) & still pricey ! I did find Bavaria or Hollandia to be a great sub to Heinken. American beer..Budwieser ! and have only had bush as a sub, good 30 packs for partys or marinades.

    If you're looking for a relatively good vodka at a great price, check out Svedka. It's about $14/liter around here, and I prefer it over Stoli and other similar varieties.

    A great Vodka for cheap is "Rain" about $15 a fifth. I put it right up there with the top shelf vodkas anyday

    Whalers makes some pretty good flavored rum. I particularly like the "Vanille". Not cloyingly sweet like other flavored schnapps/cordials.

    For Whiskey I like "Wild Turkey 80" as a staple. A pretty good Bourbon for well under $20. The 101 is a bit harsh IMO. If you want real cheap stuff that's palatable, "old Crow" tastes just like "Jim Beam" at a cheaper price.

    As mentioned before, "Keystone Light" is a good replacement for "Coors light".

    For a good strong Belgian Ale, you can't beat "Ommegang Abbey Ale" for price. They have some other styles that are good too.

    I have not found a good cheap scotch yet. Any Scotch worth drinking is pricey.

    Holy shit...a local place is selling 1.75L bottles of Zelko vodka for $7.88 and tax. I picked up two. It comes out to about fifteen cents a shot, haha. Now all I need to do is run it through a Brita filter a few times, and I'll be set.

    Interesting topic...

    I have no input regarding the vodkas or the like. We try to only drink that stuff when we're out and about. I will say though, that once, our bartender had me try a shot of "real" vodka and a shot of rail vodka, so I could taste the difference. Wow, it was quite telling.

    Cheap Beer: Ever heard of Natty Boh? You can buy a 40 oz for like $2. It's quite fun to drink. lol.
