Schlitz taking a dump.

Schlitz was my fancy beer in college
While the canned brews had a certain chemical burn, the special bar bottles were amazing. (Bar bottles were/are heavier gauge glass that were reused. Regular grocery store glass bottles were/are a thinner glass container. I used the Schlitz bar bottles for my home brew as well.)

Well, they were Germans, sort of. In a way.

Harry Carey after the Cardinals fired him.... "Drink Schlitz"
Of course the rumor was he was getting busy with a family member of the Busch's

He came back a few years late "I'm a Cub's fan and a Bud man" commercials
My roomate in grad school had a classic t-shirt with that slogan he got at Wrigley. ** Edited by Hokie Chris at 5/21/2026, 12:20:49 PM

Harry said saying "drink Schlitz" was a regret haha.
Saw him doing the 7th inning stretch at Wrigley and it looked like he had 50 empty cups around him!

My surname is Litz and folks have a hard time hearing it correctly even if
I spell it out. Back in the day all I had to do was say it, spell it and say "you know, like SCHLITZ BEER!". Another great American brand down the memory hole.

Is Carling Black Label still around? In the '60s it had a slightly lighter-
fluid taste to by young tongue. But that's just me. No I didn't drink lighter-fluid, taste relates to smell. Nevermind. ** Edited by MikeVT85 at 5/20/2026, 8:18:38 PM

It's still available in the UK.
It's great out of the tap at the pubs.

Schlitz was the first beer that I ever tasted. I was about 10.

I remember when it was sold to Strohs
Though the taste changed then, although the article said they changed the ingredients before they sold it to Strohs.

In order to fool Strohs, they added beer flavorings.
