I've lived here since '93 (I inherited the place from my Mom), so this had to have been dropped by my Dad, sometime in the 70's...



And knowing his taste in beer, I'd hazard a guess that it's from a 12-ounce Old Milwaukee.

A blast from the past.

I'd say your 'pop' was an easy going guy,  .... one can tell because the tab is only slightly bent, as if he were simply leanin back ready for a 'cool one'.

PS: Old Mil is one of my favorites: It has that 'beer taste' ( like Hamms ); It simply goes down!

And you give me  :Topes  for drinking Hieneken???????????  :pottytrain2

You do know what Ol Mil and PBR and shiltz and the like are made from don't you ?

I never gave you a hard time for drinking Hinie-Kin.... that must have been some other knowledgeable beer drinker! All I can say is ..... the winter must be long in NH if you drink that stuff.

Here on the plains...... we look for the taste....... not the 'punch'.......
after all we have long distances to drive and heavy equipment to operate!

All right I'll give you  that but I am giving you shit for OLD MILWAUKEE , that shit's as bad as the bikes that come from that town
Speaking of long distance , I'm leaving for GA in a few minutes and coming home with another prize ! :D

I haven't pulled one of those out of my foot since the mid 70's.  They can leave a nasty gash when stepped on while standing on edge.  By the way Pabst Blue Ribbon is my common domestic beer of choice, can't hardly stomach "Bud" products

I'd hate to step on one, so I always made sure to drop them IN after I popped them off... :shock:

yea old milwaukee is a staple "bring to share, and 'forget' it" beer around here. i occasionally subject myself to it.

PBR or High Life for me, if I'm drinking swill. I usually buy the good stuff though. Too many awesome micros around here to NOT do it. :D

Blew out my flip-flop
Stepped on a pop-top.
Cut my heel, had to cruise on back home...

But there's juice in the blender.
