A great beer in the right place. Freshly made in the Midwest, yes; imported to the west coast, no.

American owned and operated companies are so last century. We are supposed to be a “diverse” and “inclusive” economy now.
(Contradiction of terms alert).

Changing the formula for Schlitz is one of the all time worst decisions by any American company. They never recovered.

As opposed to “capitalist?” Gimme a break.

Hipsters are just the latest incarnation of the same cycle...
Bohemians - 19th century
Hipsters, hepsters or hepcats - 1940s
Beatniks - 1950s
Hippies - 1960s & 1970S
Hipsters - late 1990s to today
The beat goes on!

That’s a shame. The founder of the company was a great lakes freighter captain before he founded the company, and I believe there’s still a freighter out there named after him.

After spending a couple grand a month on a closet sized apartment in NYC or SF, PBR is the only beer those hipsters can afford.

Schlitz was the last beer I would drink. I tasted like it’s name.

American owned and operated companies are so last century. We are supposed to be a diverse and inclusive economy now.Yeah! We should just let 'em go bankrupt and put those Americans out of work! That'd show 'em ?
What the heck are you thinking?

If you’re lucky, maybe the industry you work in will be bought out by a foreign interest too. Not that it matters much, seeing as how you will be replaced by a foreign national, and you will yet again have to seek employment elsewhere, or starve. And people wonder what the railroads did with all of those cattle cars they no longer use. Those cattle cars are in storage in the upper midwest, waiting to be filled, but not with cattle.

That is what the government and their cronies want, and that is what they’ll get. The “people” have no say in the matter anymore, unless they stand up and fight for the Constitution.

Have a cold Pabstski, comrades!

Funny you should say that, seeing that I accepted a job offer from an American manufacturer today.
