Island Of Misfits

[Bubba]

I often wonder, Texas is a big place with many bike clubs, but it was guys who if I remember correctly were out of Texas,
circa 70's.

That's why we have the "Confederation Of Clubs" here in Texas. The Bandidos run it.
The Bandidos are basically the Hells Angels of Texas.

Mid 50's for a high here. I live 15 minutes from the Coors Brewery....never drink it.

 

[Bubba]

As I recall it wasn't pasteurized, so wasn't available locally. I always liked Schlitz better.

Remember Blatz?

Yes I do! How about "Meisterbrau" about as german as I am, not at all. But cases of quarts were cheap.

I was in a liquor/grocery store in St Louis, and it was funny to note all the A.Bush products were full tilt price, but 12 packs of Coors were dirt cheap.

Hamms and Falstaff was the cheap beer around here back in the day. You'd think that Black Label would be, beings as it was brewed 10 miles from my house, but it wasn't. It was my Old Man's favorite. Still got one in the 'fridge just in case he digs his way out. He'll be thirsty for sure. Got a bottle of Stroh's in there too for the same reason for the FIL, although he won't be as thirsty 'cause I tucked a bottle of Smirnofs in his box just before they closed the lid.

Remember this one made for Billy Carter.

Carlings Black Label, I remember that one. It was a grade or two better than some of the other swill we are talking about.

Similarly, Schoenling Little Kings. We bought 40 ounce "Big Jug" beer dirt cheap, basically Little Kings Cream ale in a 40 oz.

Speaking of firewater, I soldered the copper Tri-Clamp ferrel on the copper pot still top! No big deal, but I just wasnt finding the time. Its quite a bit heavier than the copper tube I used. You are limited as to how heavy of pipe you use, as the heavier it is, the smaller the hole, and then the ferrel will not fit, without a lot of sanding/machining. Just heat the crap out of the edge of the ferrel, the pipe will heat up easier along with the blasting of the ferrel. Otherwise the pipe will heat up much faster and the solder will go to it, even if well cleaned and fluxed.

I can tell nobody's from Pennsylvania. Those folks put away a lot of Rolling Rock.

 

[SubmarineGirl]

[Bubba]

Iron City, Falls City were another couple, I think from Milwaukie?

Weiderman and Grainbelt, but those were more 80's swill IIRC? Not like the "old time stuff we are discussing!
