I totally forgot about Schaefer!

Schaefer Beer is a brand of beer from the United States. Schaefer beer traces its beginnings back to 1848, when the Engels and Schaefer Brewing Company was opened in Cedarburg, Wisconsin.

Schaefer was, at one point during the first half of the 20th century, the world's best selling beer. By the 1970s, however, it had ceded that spot to Budweiser.

In Puerto Rico, Schaefer was one of the top selling beers during the decades of the 1970s and 1980s. For a long time, there was a large and quite famous Schaefer beer billboard at the main entrance to the city of Bayamón there.

A popular advertising campaign for Schaefer was the tagline, "Schaefer is the one beer to have when you're having more than one." This was put to music and used as a jingle from the 1950's-70s. Louis Armstrong once performed the jingle in a television advertisement campaign. Music composer Edd Kalehoff also appeared in a 1973 advertisement showing off his Moog synthesizer.

Schaefer Light is the official beer of the PKP fraternity, PA Gamma.

Miller lite if I must. Its been the second slowest keg out of my system besides the killians red. Oops forgot about the moosehead that we didn't even finish.

Where in the hell is the Shiner??? I named my freakin' dog after that beer!

**Motrv8d Steve** · 03-11-2006, 09:18 AM

i never buy domestic beer. If I was offered any of the three choices, I'd prolly have a Coors or MGD, but it hardly tastes good to me. Too many good Mexican and German beers out there. The saying goes, "Life's too short for cheap wine." Well I think the same applies to beer. Give me a nice XX amber or a Becks, please.

**SLIM_DURST** · 03-11-2006, 11:01 AM

Schlitz is good too

**D!ck** · 03-11-2006, 11:09 AM

i like good ol boulevard wheat. im partial cuz it is pertty close to my heart

**MadSeason** · 03-11-2006, 09:33 PM

Those are some pretty shitty choices... As for imports, remember in Europe they like their beer warm, you have to order it cold... if you're ever over there you'll learn fast, unless you like it like that... Drink the beer like it was ment to be when it was brewed, i'll stick to domestics with the acception of some canadian brews and killians

**needmorepwr** · 03-12-2006, 06:25 PM

old milwaukee, pabst blue ribbon, maybe some colt45!

Seriously though, Sam Adams is damn good.

**Modulistic** · 03-12-2006, 08:11 PM

Shiner heffeweizen, im pretty fond of.

**Motrv8d Steve** · 03-13-2006, 10:13 AM

almost forgot, I used to drink Henry Weinhardts, that was pretty good. do they still make it? I haven't seen it in stores for years.

Private Reserve?????

If yes, then I see it at most liquor stores here in MN.

Also, I forgot to add that since I make my own beer I nominate that to be my favorite domestic beer. Although, it's different every batch.

Next batch will be a Belgian WitBier.

**toneloc60** · 03-14-2006, 07:37 AM

Budweiser sucks. I hate that shit. Gives me a headache while I drink it. Must be because it's rice beer.

Goes to show, rice and I don't get along on ANY level.

**Zboner** · 03-14-2006, 12:15 PM

pabst blue. bud light, bud select, and import i like Blue Moon

**jimbo98z** · 03-14-2006, 07:29 PM

McEwen's... wait nope, Scottish. Guiness. Damn, Irish.

I like Pete's Wicked and a bunch of the Rogue stuff (dead guy is good). Sam Adams makes some OK beers, and they're about the only TV advertised domestic I'll drink.

And as far as this thread goes, disregard the age, I think a typo may have occured...
