OLD BEER

Gay beer, brewed and packaged in Cumberland, MD! You go, beer!
Please note, "beer", NOT Ajax.
"Beer" spelled out large so as not to confuse w/ motor oil.
OLD BEER by defekto.
I don't collect beer cans, but I found a crapload of them yesterday at a yard sale... future art project.

@norm... that particular can is a bank w/ a coin slot at the top. I have another that's a real can and the ABC in green!
@cobalt... yeah.
@mittens... a.currell would find room in his bathroom to display these before ever giving them up at a yard sale.

These are soooo great.
I'm old enough to remember drinking Schaefer.
They were a big sponsor of sports teams in NY; if I'm not mistaken, they sponsored Yankee radio broadcasts. Their jingle was classic, too:

"Schaeffer ... is the ... one beer to have
When you're haaaving more than one!"

none of that "drink responsibly" crap back then!

Are all y'all to rich to buy cheap beer? Schaeffer beer is still sold, and still the best bang for your buck!
(Louis Armstrong sang that ditty, btw).

funny how they all have a similar colour scheme. also, really makes we want to go out and try a new beer, so that can be a good thing too.
