This is an outrage (seriously). Talk about ripping the hearts out of Penn Staters. This is worse than firing Joe Paterno, worse than taking a jackhammer to the Nittany Lion Shrine.

This cannot stand. Fellow Penn Staters - UNITE and tell these canucks to stop messing with our Rolling Rock!

Here is a link to these bastard's feedback page:

There used to be a bar in Chicago, south of the Loop named Shorty's Tap. The owner was one of the Singer's Midgets that played the Munchkins in the Wizard of OZ, and everything in the bar was scaled to his height. Including the beer, so all he served were the 7 oz ponies.

Shouldn't this be in Breaking News?

Or maybe Activism?

Sometimes it's just because the machinery to handle the size is just no longer available. Remember when Johnson and Johnson discontinued the bandaid package with the little string. Jeep discontinued the 4.0 Litre strainght 6.

Stuff happens

Sad news.

Does anyone know if OV ponies are still made? Old Vienna.

Also, how about Brador? It was a brown or amber beer made by Labatts, I think.

Now that I live down south, I sure do miss that great northern beer.

I would guess that if 7 ounce beers were big sellers, they'd keep making them.

But, really... seven ounces? Why? That's not enough to stink up your breath, for pete's sake. Do folks who like 7 ounce beers also drink one ounce martinis? Or eat one egg omelets? Or 6 ounce t-bones?

Generally speaking, adults like adult sized portions. I believe I'll have another pint of Bass Ale.

Mmmmmm, Rolling Rock! The only beer that puts a picture of the horse it came out of on the bottle!

NOOOOO!!!! Not the PONIES!!!!!

ME and my freinds did a case every Thursday afetr lab at the Rathskeller!! We even bought the fifty cent bottle openers every time (we must have had a hundred of them).

On a related note:
I want to go back!! I want to go back to Happy Valley, I want to run in the Phi Psi again (the single most fun day of my entire life). I want to drink beer at the 'skeller and have sticky buns at what ever the Old College Diner calls itself these days! It's tough out here. I want to go back!

When'd Labatts buy Latrobe (the orginators of RR)?

ff (who had a Labatts Blue at the Reading Phillies the other night - did nothing to warm me up in 45 degree cold)

7 oz bottles? Who cares? Here's how a real man gets a 7 oz serving of beer:

This is a travesty. With so many people in town this weekend for the Blue-White Game, I'd bet their stock is close to zero.

Is there a Penn State ping list? If so, add me, please.
