I don't drink too much beer anymore. I'll buy a six-pack. Something different each time. Usually no more than $10.00. Seems high, until I consider the last time I bought a bottled beer in a bar two years ago, it cost me $7.00. For a Yuengling.
Don't forget Old Vienna (OV) splits. I think were 7 ounces.

Schmidt's of Philadelphia was a beer in my area that closed in 1987. The cans I have are the Bicentennial cans from 1976.

Surprised no one has mentioned "Olde Frothingslosh - the beer with the foam on the bottom."

Stag beer. And from experience it's a good deal some of those beers left us.

I didn't know Matt's kept that line. I remember the commercials with Shultz and Dooley way, way back when I was a kid.

I liked me some Red White and Blue beer back in the 80s. Tasted like water but kicked like a mule. Smooth it was ice cold.

Bunch of us dummies in high school bought some Robin Hood Cream Ale and took it camping. Nasty stuff but it was all we had. Potent too!
I recall a bunch of us young idiots plugged a watermellon with Ballentine Beer from the garage stock kept by a father of one of our gang. Gawd awful. But we ate it!

WOO-HOO! I like talking about BEER! First time I ever had Little Kings was only a few years ago in Gatlinburg. I really hate that regular old Michelob is gone. And I never did get to try that Elsinore beer???

I grew up in the 60's with my dad and neighbors drinking Black Label, Stroh's, Fallstaff, Schlitz, Hamms, Old Style and many others...!!!! I got drunk for the time in 72' SHARING a bottle of Boonsfarm apple wine equally with a friend. I think it was $00.90 - $00.99 cents P/Bottle. I was messed up and it took awhile before I was right before the next morning in my bedroom in my parents home. I graduated in 73'. And I shit you not it took me years before I could ever eat an apple or stand that smell...!!!!! Passed on the Strawberry one after that. Now it's just Coors Light or NOTHING...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (some say it's next to nothing.... so be it)
