I would have to say anything made by Coors is crazy cheap out here. But in terms of smaller companies, Fat Tire can be had for like $4 a six pack occasionally. Old Chub is made just north of here, it's not my kind of beer, but its not half bad for a $10 12 pack.
Fat Tire ... yummmmmm We just started getting Fat Tire in Fargo hear about a year ago and its great! A bit more than 4 bucks a 6-pack though!

The city I currently live in - Asheville, NC - was actually named top "Beer City USA" in 2007. There are a ton of local microbrews and whatnot. I barely remember what national beer tastes like. So... nothing specific to list.
From my hometown in Eureka, CA -Lost Coast Brewery. My favorite is Great White.[/QUOTE}
I got this for Asheville - Higland Gaelic, Pisgah Pale Ale, and ABC's Shiva IPA
If you find yourself up near Calgary, the cheapest-piss poor beer would be AGD, (Alberta Genuine Draft). It's the kind of beer you only drink if you're already too drunk to taste anything anymore, and all the other beer is gone.
TED (Tooheys Extra Dry) seems to be the go-to cheap standard. It's not bad, but it aint great either.
VB (Victoria Bitter) - only resort to this if your counting pennies.

There's no cheap beers brewed locally. Olympia Beer is my favorite beer basically ever, though, and it's at least local to the west coast.
Anchor is reasonably cheap, but I agree it is not in the Olympia/Busch/Bell/Yeungling category.

I guess it is the equivalent, though. Kind of like how "cheap" burritos in SF are like $6.

Galway Hooker (its named after a type of boat...swear!! )
I think I've tried that one a few times when I was living in Ireland a few years back. I seem to recall many a snide joke about the name with my friends
