2nd to worst? Really?

I mean, I lived on it for...well, probably a year...they sold a 24  
case of bottles for 13 bucks at this place in Boston.  It's not like  
I would go searching for it, but being bottled brings it into the  
realm of drinkability...

Anyway, I don't think I have actually drank PBR for about 4 years,  
but I can still think of a fair amount of domestic beers that I would  
take PBR over, if options were limited.  They are rarely that limited.
