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!

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...
Jimmy Buffett, "Margaritaville"
And all these years I thought he 'stepped on a pop-tart' :ImaPoser
Must've been quite stale and crunchy. :mrgreen:
Enough so to make him 'cruise on back home' :P
But there's juice in the blender.
And soon it will render
That frozen concoction that helps him hang on. (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v638/Stretch67/cheeky-smiley-025.gif)

Hey Stretch.....
Just imagine if you'd have found a body ... what this thread would be like!
It would most certainly lack that happy, summer-at-the-beach Jimmy Buffett flavor.
It would probably be something akin to the undead...

You want thirty-year-old Old Milwaukee?
((shiver))
it would probably tast exactly the same today as it did 30 years ago :ImaPoser :friday :new_all_coholic :occasion14
I grew up in Santa Rosa, CA. The local brewery in the 60's was Pearl, if I remember correctly.
The neighbor swears he wrote to the brewery to complain their beer tasked like horse piss and vinager. He claims to have gotten a reply correcting him. Pearl did not contain any vinegar. :lol:
