I have not bought into the beer snob trend. I like American style Lager or Pilsners that have a crisp taste that you can drink 3-4 over an hour or two in one sitting and still be able to drive home or not be drunk.

Grain Belt Premium/Light
Hamm's/Light
Old Style/Light
Pabst's Blue Ribbon though it was better before the poor hipsters found it.
Miller Lite
Michelob Golden Draft Light
Bud/Bud LIght

Most local craft brewers make a pils and a lager. Just do a little research of the breweries where you live and I'm sure you will find some to try......But session IPAs and most Pale Ales are as low or lower in abv than lagers and pils and taste real dandy.

Pbr
Miller lite (amazing how more are drinking it since they went back to original label)
Rollin rock
High life

Also there's a 6 pack at rouses from Germany, forget the name but it claims to be the oldest brewery in Germany and it's the cleanest lager I've ever had. Will look for pics and post once I find it. Cheap too.

Yeah I used to drink that but you can't get it up North. I also liked Pearl. I also miss Dixie.

Not as cheap as BMC type stuff, but Samuel Adams Boston Lager is pretty good for what it is.

The true answer to your question is Yuengling, but I don't think they distribute to LA.

ETA: Or MN.

Hmmmm can you get a 30 pack for 12.97? You can get a 30 pack of Hamm's and Hamm's Light for that.

It's the same price as Bud or Bud Light, so no.

since I am a big proponent of supporting local breweries, I'd suggest trying Summit or Schell Pils, both are out of MN

Yeah I do. Schell's brews Grain Belt and Grain Belt Light. You can get a case on sale for 16.00 at times. Not a big fan of Summit.

Just curious. If you have all the answers, why are you asking the question?
