At the time I didn't even know if they still
made that brand beer.

If there ever is a next time, I'll ask for a
Schlitz Malt Liquor.
Dude!!

About 5 years ago, Schlitz(not malt, but the "1960's formula" - and branded as such) made a fast and large comeback in Nashville. I watched quite a few PBR drinkers switch teams for the Schlitz.....then it was GONE. No one could find it any more!!!! Well, they were marketing it like PBR, and it's actually quite a bit better than PBR, and as a little research showed, owned by the same company as PBR. I bitched and bitched at bar owners, and even called distributors(yes, I may be "that guy"), and was told that they could just no longer get it. You can actually still find it, but it's priced like premium beer now, and Imma cheap bitch!
