Good news Connecticut, it's cheap beer for all! According to a fresh study from Visual Capitalist, it turns out you don’t have to break the bank to crack open a cold one in some parts of the U.S. A new study looked at the price of a 24-pack of Bud Light or Miller Lite in all 50 states, and the results are pretty surprising. The surprising part? Connecticut is one of the states where beer is the cheapest! You didn't see that coming, did you nipple head?

Where’s the priciest place to grab a 24-pack? Well, Alaska takes the crown, with prices hitting a staggering $33.62 per case. That’s about $1.40 per can—ridiculous! On the flip side, if you’re living in Illinois, you’re in luck, with a case going for just $16.43. That's almost half the price of the most expensive state!
