That's a beer name I haven't heard in ages!

I'm more of a Genesee man myself

From what I recall when I was a teenager. I remember their ads saying they were fire brewed, don't know if it makes them any better. In Detroit, us youngsters, heard that Food's was the best. It wasn't available in the east back then. When I traveled to other states,all the kids wanted Stroh's. Which wasn't available in a lot of places outside Michigan. When Stroh's acquired the Schlitz brewing company, they events closed The brewery in Detroit. I remember,my Cousin Mike lost his job there. It was one of the best places to work outside of the auto shop's. On a side note, the brewery was popular for its tours, and the bottomless free pitchers of beer in in the Strohaus after the tours. You could sneak in and join any of the tours if you wanted to get free beer. Eventually, even though Stroh's took over Schlitz brewing, Stroh's was overshadowed by many of the Schlitz brands. And began their decent to lower priced swill. They are now distributed by PBR. When I turned 18, I started the every month trip across the river for my two case allotment of the much stronger ABV beer at either the BEER STORE or duty free in Windsor,Ontario. So Stroh's was never a beer that I readily consumed back in the day. Unless I felt like joining a tour  for my always favorite..........FREE BEER😉🍻🍺😝

In Italy I found this beer, the best ahahaha  (You need to Login or Register to view media files and links)

Don't ask why try Bud Dry! Douglas thanks for the history lesson on Strohs! Maybe Pabst will bring back Olympia! Was actually really good cheap beer!
