If its super hot, and you were mowing the lawn, or working cattle, or something, it was good, but that's about it. In the summer, which was the only time of year my father ever bought beer, he never bought Coors and I've never developed a taste for it. An uncle of mine, however, was a huge Coors fan and always had it on hand.<br /><br />Recently Coors put out a beer called Batch 19 which was based on a recipe they relocated which supposedly reflects their brew in 1919 just before the Volstead Act was passed. It's really good. I've really wondered why they didn't put that recipe back into production rather than the one they did.

The beer stays fresh longer, they are lighter for travel, and pack in a cooler more securely. <br /><br />I remember when my family travelled to St. Louis each year for vacation to visit family, my father would always bring back a case of Coors since he couldn't get in the East.<br /><br />Cheers!Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11006015336607998634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5349428160142078931.post-12562375790937753902018-10-16T11:44:24.989-04:002018-10-16T11:44:24.989-04:00102 is a fine number of years to drink beer, even ...102 is a fine number of years to drink beer, even if it's Coors.<br /><br />I'm still having to force myself to buy cans. Which is dumb, because it always gets poured into a glass no matter whether it comes from bottle or can. ProudHillbillyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14305205710265854978noreply@blogger.com
