    One beer I can’t find in Ohio anymore is regular Michelob. Wasn’t fantastic. But I didn’t think it was half bad.

    [QUOTE=westofyou;4305565]RR is always big in Athens, Strohs really gained foothold in SW Ohio in 1969 when they started sponsoring Reds radio

    I think I knew every Stroh's commercial on Reds radio by heart back in the 70's. From One Beer Lover to another.....Stroh's Beeeeeeeer.......

    The "Classy" beer ads.

    So that's Budweiser's upscale beer IIRC, it probably has faded somewhat in the wave of craft beers (plus IN-Bev group owns great craft Brewery's too like Bend's 10 Barrel)

    I always found it odd that in the 70's the Tigers broadcasts were sponsored by Michelobe and the Reds by Detroit's own Strohs.

    I remember that Eric Clapton re-recorded a slower version of "After Midnight" for a Michelob commercial in the late 80's.

    I had a roommate who swore by Old Milwaukee, but I thought it tasted pretty bad. And, as documented earlier in this thread, my tastes are pretty broad.

    It's around, though completely reformulated as a low-carb beer.

    Back in the day, that was the beer to order to impress your date. Lowebrau and Heineken were also the snobby beers.

    I can’t believe the swill I used to drink.

    Regular Michelob (not the low-carb Ultra) still exists per AB's site, but I searched Instacart (which near me searches like 15 different stores) and nobody carries it. A couple of them carry Michelob Light and Michelob Amber Bock, though.

    All right, but which beer is 2021 Cubs bad? Like, you thought it might be all right, but it turned out to be pure ipecac.
