Prosit!

Ever heard of Grain Belt? I sure have. About 1983 or so, during my Japanese pocket rocket phase (my 1150 was white/blue) while visiting friends  and touring the great state of Wisconsin I discovered Grain Belt.

I also discovered Leinenkugel's, Point, and Old Style during that 1 week leave.

But I haven't drank Barbarossa and Pebkac. Actually, I'd have never heard of either of those two if not for the 17 Vintage Beer Ads web page.

I've drank most of those at one time or other, and Stroh's was my favorite for a few years, but like you there's some I'd never heard of. I didn't know Barbarossa was a beer, I thought that was a really bad Sci Fi movie Jane Fonda starred in.

By the way, Strohs spelled backwards is shorts.

Yeah, Barbarossa is a strange name for a beer. I don't think I ever had the bad luck to see that particular flick and I'm going to keep avoiding it!
