2026 Dead Pool

I liked Schlitz. Back when dinasaurs roamed the Earth, there was a seafood restaurant in San Antonio called The Bayous. Their happy hour was 15 cent oysters and 25 cent Schlitz on tap.

That sounds like a terrible way to spend an afternoon

Schlitz was my go to in high school and all the way through my mid 20s. Best of the cheap beers, in my opinion.

Just goes to show you that making Milwaukee famous was futile after all.

My favorite cheap beer was Milwaukee’s Best. A 12 pack was $2.50 back in the late 80s. It was pretty good too!

I liked Miller High Life 6 packs of tallboys

Schlitz was way too expensive for us. We drank Olympia. $4/case.

Lone Star Long necks were $3.99/ case in 1974…plus deposit on the bottles.

Olympia is right down there with Hamm’s.

The link doesn’t work but I know all about this, of course. I’m pretty sure I spotted it when I was messing around on Google maps, knew immediately what he was doing and laughed myself sick. Then I looked into it and confirmed my assumptions.

I have a picture of myself in front of the building that I got my wife to take when we were in Milwaukee last September I think it was. I explained my interest to her and she just shook her head sadly.

Horse Piss my dad said. Now that I’m in my 70s I agree and have for 50 years.

I swear I’ve seen this on approach into KMKE.
Good on this dude.

For the record, Schlitz got me through flight school.
It was cheap, available and fun to drink.
