It’s bubbly, it’s yellow, and it may be the only alcohol on this list you can always find at your local Plaid Pantry. The High Life is affordable for those of you who like to celebrate the New Year in style, at $2 per forty. Sure, it’s beer and not wine, but it’s not just beer. It’s the fucking champagne of beers.

“The Champagne of Beers”
Miller High Life
Price: $2
It’s bubbly, it’s yellow, and it may be the only alcohol on this list you can always find at your local Plaid Pantry. The High Life is affordable for those of you who like to celebrate the New Year in style, at $2 per forty. Sure, it’s beer and not wine, but it’s not just beer. It’s the fucking champagne of beers.
Cheap-ass
André: Brut
Price: $3.50
It might burn as you pour it down your throat, but after a few glasses (or bottles) of this college student’s delight, you won’t care anymore. Brut smells like burnt tire, and tastes a little worse. But if you’re on a tight budget and still want to celebrate the New Year with a little bubbly, it’s your best bet.
Middle class
Cooks: Brut
Price: $6
Not quite as dry as André, Cooks has a more fruity flavor that makes drinking it much more bearable. Grab a bottle of Cooks if you want to really impress your significant other with a classy bottle of booze.
High roller
Korbel: Brut
Price: $13
It’s like bubbly magic in a bottle. Korbel stands out from the crowd with its light, crisp and delicious flavors, and unfortunately, its costly price tag. Even though it may cost a pretty penny, every drink of Korbel is worth it. And Korbel is probably the closest any of us will get to the celeb’ life of drinking Cristal and gettin’ crunk!
