Speaking of beer, or in this case, BAD beer, does anybody remember when the generic products first came out? For example, a bag of potato chips came in a white bag with black stenciled lettering that pretty much just said "Potato Chips". This was probably in the middle 70s. Anyway, my dad was a real tightwad frugal buyer. I grew up on a dairy farm and dad had one policy when we put up alfalfa, which were small bales, BTW. Dad would buy as much beer as my two brothers and I could drink while we were putting up alfalfa. There was one catch: It was the cheapest beer that he could find. The beer that I remember most was generic beer. This stuff came in a white can with the stenciled lettering of "Beer". The stuff was made by Falstaff (the small lettering on the can said so), it was obviously very cheap (because my dad bought it) and I remember the very first can of it would give me a headache. My brothers and I could put away a lot of beer during those days, even if I was under age. I guess I put up with the headaches because I had to be a big man and drink beer like my brothers. If you do a Google search of "generic, white label beer" you'll see a picture of how the label used to look.
