To: shove_it
It's like most every thing else today, the swill that passes for beer these days isn't fit to drink. I'll have a Strohs, bartender.

I quit drinking in 1972,but for the previous 15 years or so I drank up great quantities of the following American beers.

Rheingold...My beer is Rheingold the dry beer..

Piel's...Piels is the beer for me boys..

Ballantine...Blech!

Schaeffer...the one beer to have..

Stroh's..America's only fire-brewed beer..

Iron City...double blech..

Blatz..the less said the better..

Schlitz...ditto..

Hamm's

Falstaff...urp..

Knickerbocker..

Pearl

Jax...awful stuff..

Olympia...not awful..

National Bohemian...I really liked this one..

I could go on but all these memories make my head hurt.

No one has mentioned "The Pale Stale Ale with the foam on the bottom"...

Olde Frothingslosh

By the way, you didn't drink this stuff, you collected the cans.

The reason you didn't drink this was because inside the Olde Frothingslosh can was that famous brew from Pittsburgh Brewing Co. otherwise known as -- Iron City Beer. 'Nuff said!

Remember the Blatz "taste test" commercials where they'd put a guy's "regular" beer up against Blatz?

For some reason Blatz always beat Stroh's, Schlitz, Falstaff or whatever el-cheapo brand the guy regularly drank.

Thought maybe the Hamm’s commercial jingle might sooth your headache. From the Land of Sky Blue Waters”:
