    Hope the Charmin marketing folks are paying attention. I see a cross-promotional opportunity here!

    Re: Rejoice beer fans!

    Confession, I saw this at the 128th and University walgreens about a month ago and grabbed a 6 pack since it was only $2.99 and I was curious. For the money it was drinkable...although I like Keystone Light so take it for what its worth.

    Picked some up before Xmas as the guy at the counter told me it tasted like Busch Light. For 50 cents a can, I figured I'd give it a shot. Not bad

    Ames store has it, I haven't bought it yet. It's a great idea.

    Re: Rejoice beer fans!

    I can generally find High Life and HL Light in 30 packs for .50/.60 cents per can and I doubt that this would be better tasting.
    Nothing to see here mods. Keep moving.

    By the way, rejoice for what - a crappy lager w/ just enough hops to say that it has hops?
