Lived on the Delaware border for a year and this was by FAR the best thing from Dogfish Head. Everything else was highly overrated.

YMMV

The last time this shit was sold in Oz was back in the 80's when Crocodile Dundee was big in the US. I've never actually seen this beer sold here in Oz that we refer to as "cat's piss". Maybe in the US the correct term is "horse piss". So I'm apologising on behalf of all Ozzies for unleashing this shit on the rest of the world, we like to keep the best beer down under here for ourselves.
And just to add, the worst beer usually comes from the Netherlands.

A neighbor gave me a smoked beer once. I can't recall the name of it. It was the most terrible thing I've ever tasted.I agree after trying one of the same once. Also tried a beer aged in a wooden whiskey barrel. Was an interesting concept but just didn't work.

Interesting timing on this. Many years ago I tried Victoria Bitter, while stationed on Okinawa of all places, and liked it. Never have been able to find it since. I do see Foster's occasionally. We have a local Australian eatery (The Australian Bite) that sells Foster's in a green can. I asked the Australian lady who owns the place if she knows where I can find VB, and she pointed to the green can Foster's and said, "that's it". Any truth to this? Is VB disguised in a green Foster's can?

Orion Beer could be added to this list, but I did drink a lot of it in Kinville.

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Ale (New Belgium Brewing, collaboration with Ben & Jerry/s) - simply godawful. Someone brought it to a party we had a while back and the only reason that there's 5 of them still in the garage instead of 6 is that I foolishly tried one. So sickly, syrupy sweet that it was all I could do to choke down one taste - the rest got dumped. Fortunately, they only brewed it once (according to Beer Advocate: https://www.beeradvocate.com/.../profile/192/236603/ - if you want to taste the horror for yourself, I've got 5 of 'em up for grabs.

Foster's was quite big in Canada back in the Crocodile Dundee days. When I visited Australia I learned quickly how poorly it is regarded on home turf. Drank VB quite a bit in Oz, plus other good beers, not to mention some really good wine.

Agreed, I never got into any of the Japanese beers. I'll forget and order a Sapporo at a Japanese restaurant every once in a while and quickly remember it tastes like garbage.

Haha, I forgot about this one. It was in a New Belgium sampler pack I bought, and was another beer I couldn't finish a single bottle of. I even warned friends not to bother trying it when they saw it in the fridge, although someone must have because they're not there any more and I don't remember throwing them away.

In college me and a buddy decided we'd try every cheap beer.
We started with a 12 pack of Texas Pride Extra Light.
We threw away the remaining 10 beers and gave up on our quest.

I had some Orion when I was in Okinawa a couple of years ago. It was okay-ish, not terrible.
