That's funny that you mentioned Leinenkugel's.

Back in the early 80's (when I was in high school), we used to drive across the border into Wisconsin to buy beer. More often that not, we'd buy Leinie's.

The beer was either the most hideous tasting swill you'd ever drank - or it was the most heavenly-tasting beer you'd ever drank. There was no uniformity of taste whatsoever.

When Miller bought them, they evened out the taste to a pretty uniform. I guess that's no surprise when a big company buys out a smaller one.

Did you ever experience the ups and down of Lienie's like I did?

In high school we used to drive 2 hours round trip to fill my mom's station wagon up with cases of Leinie's (when the drinking age was 21 in in IL and 18 in WI - (early '80's).

Went to college in WI - Leinie's was probably part of the decision making process, now that I think of it.

I may have had a warm Leinie, but never a bad one!

Grab yourself some Huber Bock quick, before Miller or AB ruin it too!
