I might have to do a generic “beer”. I remember when that came out in stores, what was it, the Mid 1980’s? I’m sure I had some and I can’t imagine it was any good, but I don’t remember.

And who wouldn't like to have a Griesedieck Brothers Beer right now ?

Or perhaps an Olde Frothingslosh - the beer with the head on the bottom !


Urp !

It was bad. We used to buy a couple of cases for all but nothing and slam them while watching Repo Man.

Do you store these in a carrying case or your fridge?


And will a sample be enclosed in the car?

And the sad part was 4 or 5 of us in the dorm trying to round up loose change to buy a couple of cases of that swill on a Sunday night.  Then I got a side job cleaning a bar. Problem solved.

I don't know if this is a one-off, but if they do a fantasy Blatz with the triangle logo I'll be in for that.


Jason

Man we should just make some decals for that!

Edit: Also, we need a TrainDog pint glass @Atlas Paul !

Too bad those trailers are 45".
Failing to prepare is preparing to fail.

This would have been a good opportunity to re-release the ex-Walthers X-post NACC RBL...



Possibly as a stand-in for this car, too:

Years ago I liked Rolling Rock, but they were acquired and the new owners smashed the glass lined tanks in Latrobe PA ( :trollface:) and moved the brewing to some mega brew factory in NJ - it's never been the same.  :facepalm:

I remember when rolling rock was bought out. Very sad day. That was a favorite of many of my fraternity brothers, myself included. We often had green beer parties where we o lay allowed green beer. I still think fondly of that brew.

Anybody else remember the Walthers O "scale" "beer can tankcar" kit from the late 60s and 70s?  You had to supply the can!

I assume that they were discontinued with the introduction of the aluminum can?
