You can't be serious. Dixie was awful. That's why they were constantly about to go out of business. Locals would buy it just to help keep the business afloat and tourists would buy it because they didn't know any better.





I normally wouldn't argue with you because you gave me Pelicans tickets I could not let this stand, sir.

Easily one of the worst I've ever had. Not sure I was ever able to even finish one.

We used to get Cass, the Dixie night watchman, fricked up, and he'd take us on tours through the brewery. Cool place. Good times were had there with good friends.

Michelob

Also Moosehead, which is apparently still made, but I haven't seen in ages.

Used to hit a lot of the Dinkelacker Dark and CD Pils back then, too. Haven't seen them in years.

When did Tequiza come out?
Late 90s-Early 2000s if I had to guess.

I know this is on tap occasionally at Apex Bar in Portland. The descriptions is: "Cold and Cheap". It's for people who want Bud, but Apex can't bring themselves to put BMC on tap.

Fall City beer.

Schlitz Beer. "When you're out of Schlitz, you're out of beer."

My old man driving the brood to Fort Walton Beach in the 68 Lincoln Continental with the suicide doors. Pulling the tab on an ice cold Schlitz, firing up a Pall Mall and yelling " roll the god damn window up son. You're letting the smoke out."

I still have that car in the barn.

Do they still make Miller Genuine Draft? I crushed that in high school
