You know, the brand that you asked your older cousin, sibling or the local degenerate in town to buy for you and your buddies to drink in the woods. Ours was Genny Cream Ale pounders (16 ounce bottles) or Goebels. In high school, go to beers were Meister Brau and Busch.

In my early 20s, I started drinking Molson Export Ale. Loved it. After a while, it seemed like I could NOT find a 12-pack that wasn't skunked. Tried different places, too. Always skunked. Weirdest thing. That's when I switched to Labatt Blue. About 7-10 years ago, I switched to Blue Light and that remains my daily hydrator.

We had the same complaint. Maybe Molsen had that as a traditional brew method....let it sit and skunk before bottling. Can't go wrong with Labatts.
The Poojer Posted June 13, 2019 Posted June 13, 2019 I actually will contribute to this thread as i had a new(ish) beer this weekend(in fact i drank several of them). Alchemist, of Heady Topper et al fame, released Rapture in Philly and it was in a few places around town. best i can tell it's the first time making it in a few years. It was very good. i want to drink a lot more. Hey, that looks like my desk :-) 37 minutes ago, LBSeeBallLBGetBall said: 1

Even comes with a cheapo cooler that you can throw snacks in for a shirtless day at the beach!

Ned Flanders Posted June 13, 2019 Posted June 13, 2019 Dogfish Head just came out with a low-calorie, low-ABV (4%) IPA that's pretty tasty and a good summer time beer. May only be available in the mid-Atlantic though. Check your local listings.

LB3 Posted June 13, 2019 Posted June 13, 2019 (edited) My friend's dad worked for a beer distributor. He was always getting free beer so he had a huge stockpile. He never missed these beasts... Edited June 13, 2019 by LBSeeBallLBGetBall

And now about the Screamres. I actually started drinking them again with a new found appreciation about 18 months ago..they are actually quite good. Wegmans has had the 15 pack of cans for $7.99 the last two years or so( same price as the twelve, you get 3 free Gennys is printed on the case somewhere LOL). Anyway, was in Wegmans on Sunday, fancy ooking new package, new cans(made to look old/classic) and $9.99 for a twelve!!!!WTF???? Outrageous Pricing for a twelve LOL I guess Cream Ale is making a comeback , and they are just capitalazing on it.

Ridgewaycynic2013 Posted June 13, 2019 Posted June 13, 2019 Goebels...they named a war criminal after that beer...?
PromoTheRobot Posted June 13, 2019 Posted June 13, 2019 I learned that Farm Island Organic IPA sold at Trader Joe's is actually made by Peak Organic brewing of Portland ME. For $8 a 6pk it's great value.
