I remember once I found that in slim 8 oz cans. They weren't like any of the current 8 oz cans that are either shorter or proportional with 12 cans, only smaller. They were about the height of a 12 oz can but slimmer. I brought some to a tailgate and a friend said "Wow, that is the Silver Bullet. Do you drink it with your pinky sticking out?"

I was only a kid and didn't partake, but I remember when Coors (not sure if Coors Light was available) had these ridiculously hard to open push top cans in the late 70s. Apparently they had traditional pull tabs, ones that needed a can piercer, and then the push top.

I heard some people were injured trying to open the push tops. Either with an implement (like a screwdriver) slipping or just cutting a finger on the edge of an opening. I remember when Coors discontinued them in favor of modern push tops with the captive tab opener, they had a commercial that was ridiculing their old design and how hard it was to open.

Those look cool haha. Would have loved to had a can that style for my collection. Probably could find one out there somewhere. Also Coors Banquet is really good too I like it. I’d put it on the same lines as something like Yuengling. Now you got me wanting a Coors Banquet haha. I can see how people would get injured with those it’s probably best they got away from that design.

I think bottle openers with can piercers helped a bunch. But as a kid, even if we didn’t drink it we wanted to try and help the adults open then. They were ridiculously hard to open, and certain implements helped. I think a single chopstick was ideal if you had one. But not the disposable wooden kind which would just snap like a twig.

Always a solid choice

My last one was one of these, straight out of the can. It wasn’t sold refrigerated and the canning date was last November. It was OK, but still a little bit on the sweet side.

Probably going to have Elysian Brewing Space Dust tonight.

The two hearted IPA is hoppy, not sweet tasting. I don’t care for it personally

My comparison is West Coast style double IPAs. They tend to be really dry and very heavy on the hops. My favorite single IPA is Blind Pig from Russian River Brewing, and that's 6.25% ABV while Two Hearted is 7%. I think the hops are more prevalent in Blind Pig while Two Hearted is rather sweet for an IPA. It's not as sweet as a typical American adjunct lager though.

“Montucky cold snack”.
As a “thank you” for servicing her lawn mower, my Sister-in-law picked this up for me to try. Interesting can design.

We have a store called “Atwood's” and they have a variety of drinks that I’ve never heard of before, including a few Root Beer Selections. Those that I’ve tried were very good, I believe they were better than the big name selections.
I don’t drink sodas very often, but when I was a kid, I could down some good Root Beer.

If I ever get reincarnated I want to come back as a hard-drinking medieval Bavarian. not around the mid-14th century, though. I don't care for the plague. I'd totally let myself go and look like a Teutonic version of a profane Friar Tuck. I'd get properly plastered, a pretzel with cheese in one hand, a tankard with beer in the other. I'd call for more women and challenge anyone to a game of Old Maid.

This wheat bock from one of my go-to breweries is great!

My gift for donating some of my Delvac ESP to my machinist who lives near me. 6 pack of this. Life’s too short to worry about oil stashes

Never tried that but their oatmeal stout is amazing.

I can’t believe you never had a oatmeal stout I will second that the Samual Smith is dang good if not a gold standard.

I found some of this while in Little Rock last weekend and immediately thought of these two comments from back in February, so of course I picked up a 4 pack. I think I should have picked up a few 4 packs.
Great stuff! Cheers guys!
Everyone enjoy your weekend!

@AutoMechanic, be careful with those “Hard Mountain Dews” that your buddies are giving to you, we don’t want this to happen.

Just kidding. Cheers buddy!

LOL. I might crack one open later. We decided not to get any margaritas with dinner because of all the road checks in my area. Don’t want to be checked after drinking lol.

You made a wise choice.
Rule #1. There’s no driving after drinking,…even one. There’s a time and place for enjoying a drink or two,..maybe three, but not when YOU have to drive somewhere.
Rule #2. Don’t ride with someone that’s been drinking. Save your drinks for later and you drive.
