#1 Y'all might find the following commercial for Kokanee beer interesting (real video required):

#2 Yeah he had a preference or the Raineer was in a different cooler and he finished one off before moving on to the next, and then he was chased off or one drunk bear so he didn't drink many Busch.

Assuming you're tearing a bear can open with your big bear claws, how much beer is going to be left to drink?

#3 Yank, I think he had a nice, crystal Pilsner glass with him. Nothing beats that foamy head.

I suspect he was biting them. The effect would be similar to "shooting" a beer.

#4 My friends always called it shotgunning a beer but I know what you're saying. Funny story, I had a roommate in college who didn't drink. He saw some guys shotgunning beers and thought it looked fun. He got himself a coka-cola and shotgunned that.

Needless to say even the drunks figured out what was gonna happen before the coke came out of his nose.

#5 The best commercial I've ever seen.
An oldie but a goodie.

#6 Rainier, Busch, Olympia - all the same pisswater....drink a couple good beers first and these can follow nicely if suitably frigid :-)

shotgunning has nothing on beer bongs (funnel and hose) for stupid fun (former SAE member at San Diego State....)

#8 busch absorbed hamms much like I tried to do many a weekend. The only thing that kept Lucky (sorry, Lucky) from the worst beer list was low low price and, after 24 Lucky's, the "tricky" puzzles in the bottlecap

#11 You may be right mucki, I was taken in by the video. There should be some board, group or committee to make sure what we see on the internet is true.

#12 Rainier Ale, otherwise known to the cognoscenti as "Reindeer Piss" or, more familiarly, "The Green Death."

mucky, Hamm's (from the land of sky blue waters) is still marketed out west. The Hamm's Beer Bear was one of the most widely recognized advertising icons in all of television history.

Frank G, what you're calling a "tricky puzzle" is known as a rebus.

Shipman, you win today's prize for the funniest link. That was frickin' priceless!

#14 Shipman : Kravchuk was "Hero of the Ukraine"
Kerry was "Hero of Stealth Cambodian Missions"
But as to me, Just Give me a Sam Adams Lager.

#15 Frank G, what years were you at SDSU? I graduated in 91.

After graduation (Lynn Cheney spoke but nobody could hear her with the blow-up sex doll bouncing around the bowl) I decided I would never drink Meisterbrau again. Now its Karl Strauss whenever possible.
