Being in college at EKU and not having a lot of spending money, we loaded some luggage in a Chevy Citation then headed for Speck's liquor store in Richmond. We bought 2 cases of Heineken, a case for the day we got there, and the other one the day before we left. So, we went with the cheapest beer we could buy for the rest of the trip, which happened to be Stroh's on sale for 4 dollars a case. Bought 10 cases of that crap. When we got out on the beach, you would have thought we brought gold with us. Everyone was like "Where'd you get that Stroh's, and we wound up trading almost all of it for Budweiser.
Yeah, that was the beer of choice around my parts in the early 80's. They came in 15 & 30 packs if I remember. Then everyone quit drinking it when they made the switch from white cans to blue cans. Now everyone drinks Busch Light around here.
