    Black Label was so-so...

    I am sure it was. Every American national brand beer really was/is.

    So sad that a 57yr. old Pittsburgh fan in his lifetime has experienced 12 championships Pittsburgh pro sports teams brought to their city, while a 57yr. old Cleveland fan has witnessed 0 ..unless at the age of 8 he remembers 1964.

    A 57yr. old not knowing what it feels like to experience a championship, wow.

    Cleveland has to be the worst 3 sport city in the U.S.

    Yes. You are a lucky dumbass. That is all there is to it.

    And actually, that probably makes us one of the 3 BEST sports cities.....in terms of the dedication of the fans. A city with -0- titles is every bit as avid...or more so than a city with 12.

    Plus we certainly do not have the FRAKs that you have.

    Also, I was 12 and do remember 1964.

    (I assume you included the Pipers ABA title?)

    I remember my first season. The browns picked a stud running back with the 3rd overall pick, and then took a huge gamble on a 28-year old minor-league pitcher turned QB.

    I do remember the 64 championship game, but did not really pay much attention to it. My parents, and a few friends got together to listen to it. 66 was the 1st year I really got into the Browns.

    For the 2nd topic, I remember most of my friends fathers drank Strohs, but after I tasted it as a kid, I never tried it again. Sam Adams Lager is my beverage of choice.

    Oh yeah, I'm British, so to me pretty much any American beer is pisswater 😁

    OK, but, I don't know of any British beers that anyone would choose either. Irish beers, German beers, yes.

    Hell, I can't even think of a British beer.

    That's the annoying part, we have such great beer, but you can't find it anywhere else. Irish beers are essentially the same as British beers, just that Guinness is world famous.

    Ha, not one I'd go for! Yes, 'wife beater' - because you have a few pints of it then go home and smack your wife about a bit presumably. 'Pint of wifey please mate.' Btw, it's Belgian.

    I was not privy of where it was from..I just knew it was big in the UK...I have friends in and around Warrington and Manchester that told Me about it before it was distributed in the U.S..

    I guess, because of the name, I kinda thought that was a French beer...or German. Or Dutch. You sure it is not Dutch?

    OK, I see you say it is Belgian. I thought it was one of those.
