Rainier Beer @ "Beer O'Clock" !

A very low priced larger and quite tasty

Pauline said to me it was a Larger she quite enjoyed during "Beer O' Clock." This was a new tradition she adopted touring South America all by herself at the age of 61... as she said "between jobs."  Imagine capital city after country after country staying with Friends, Parents of Colleagues or at Youth Hostiles... as I said in different countries where she often found herself adopted by younger people staying and often would be invited out for "Beer O' Clock..."  a tradition she brought with her to the states when she came to visit this past June.  The URL for her Blog about her recent adventure is listed at the end of this posting.  Now I am a huge fan of Traditional English Cask Aged Ales... which you cannot find here in the states and makes for reason a trip to the UK... a pilgrimage you see... to smaller villages and towns where it is all the worthwhile... as that is where you will find them there... trust.  These past few weeks I have been trying different commercial off the shelf American low end Larger such as Rolling Rock, Pabst Blue Ribbon (my favorite) and this week Rainier Beer.

There's beauty in them bubbles

Rainier Beer has always been low priced, a favorite of Pacific North West college students... so I am told... I can't be sure... but when you visit the states and are in this part of America... give it a shot.  I found it light, tasty, and at $4.18 at our local food warehouse a real bargain.  The photographs are mine, set to 125 DPI so there's a wallpaper here for the taking as I have put these specific photos on the Public Domain.  For me next time I pass the brewery, I'm going in.

Rolling Rock

Received a text tonight from Eric of Jetmore: "I was plenty damnit hot in my pickup when I drove to the store to get Rolling Rock Extra Pale (APV 4.2) and a 6 pack of "Shiner"...   I immediately did the same on my way home from work tonight, couldn't find any Shiner... but let me tell you... Rolling Rock larger beer in the 16 ounce can is an American Treasure when it comes to drinking a cold pale larger beer on a hot summer evening in Kansas... or anywhere USA.

Better luck next time looking for the Shiner but... perhaps you can answer this.  The reverse side label on the "Pale Rolling Rock" which I must tell you is a super pale larger... and quite tasty... say's "33".

And what's the "33" mean ?  "33" refers to the founding year of the Pittsburgh Steelers


Thanks Eric... FIDO!
