Don't know about that, and I didn't think that Canadian Ace was that
bad either. For years and years I drank Old Style at bars all over
Chicago. That was the common Chicago tap beer, and I enjoyed it.
I always ordered the bottle.
Then I was living in Queens a while and was drinking Schaefer and
Miller. When I went back to Chicago I stuck with Miller.
One day a brain short-circuit caused me to order a bottle of Old Style
like an old habit. It stunk, and I wondered how I drank it for all
those years.
Anyway, I'm a snob now, and drink mostly Zywiec and Hacker-Pschorr
Weisse. But I do some slumming too.

Schaefer...the one beer to have when you want to belch up beer breath.
I drank Piels for a while when I drank beer because I liked Bert and
Harry Piel, aka Bob Elliot and Ray Goulding. Best commercials ever.
Among the worst beers ever.
One summer while in college my father got me a job on the loading dock
at Hulls' Export Beer in New Haven. I loaded kegs and cases of bottles
onto trucks all day long. Work rules required a cold keg on the dock at
all times to "refresh" the grunts who did the loading. I'm afraid those
days are long, long gone.

Those were the days. I earned enough in the summer to just about cover
the next year's tuition, books and room and board, thanks to the
American union movement!
