    Light and crisp and no aftertaste like I find in Pabst and High Life. Originally brewed in Minnesota (land of sky blue waters). One of my favorite “economical” brews along with Yuengling Premium.

    Back in the late '70's, Hamm's came in keg-shaped cans, which was cool. Later, as a cost-saving measure, they changed to cans painted to look like they were keg-shaped. Then they went out of business for a while. Ads were great, with cartoon bears. Used to have a Hamm's neon bar sign, with a moving stream/waterfall effect.

    A "lawnmower beer" that goes down great after a morning and early afternoon working on the yard.
    When young, back in the Sixties I saw Hamm's being swigged by blue collar gents at the bowling alleys, pool halls and other places of recreation.
    I just today did a call around and a bodega that carries high falutin (expensive brand) brews tells me they carry Hamm's in "Suitcases" of 24 cans. Suitcases? Never heard that term before and the young Lady told me, "It's an olde Tyme" expression. Didn't tell her I'm older than dirt and never heard that expression.
    Regardless 24 cans of lawnmower beer for "$17.99" sounds great to me so in time as soon as my garage fridge has room. I'll zoom down and pick up a suitcase of Hamm's.

    Decided to try it this morning. 30 case looked cool, trees and a lake on it. Not a bad brew at all, and the price is the icing on the cake. I started off a diehard budweiser fan but I'm starting to like lighter beers more and more.

    I love Hamm's. An excellent lager at any price, but in 2024 I can still get this for $4.99 for a six pack of pint cans, making it tops in value. You just can't beat it for the price. And I totally agree (as does any decent person) that people who work full-time (making other people rich) should be able to afford a decent standard of living as well. Great review!

    I have been a Keystone light buyer for years, when Keystone sold for about $12 to $14 plus tax a case of 24. NOW Keystone is more like $18 plus tax a 24 case. I switched to Hamms a few months ago. Hamms sells for about $16.50 a 30 pack case now. Hamms has Mucho waay better BEER flavor than Keystone which now tastes like swamp water. I will never go back to Keystone light. Great Review!!!

    Curious. What is a deposit state? Having grown up in Colorado and moved to Nevada I just have never heard that term. BTW Hamms was the only beer my two uncles, one in Minnesota and one in Wisconsin, would drink. I still find it to be a decent beer choice.

    • @JoshEllisTMG
      @JoshEllisTMG  Рік тому

      There are a handful of states that charge a small deposit per can or bottle. In Iowa deposit is $.05 per can. There are a couple of states that charge $.10 a can. The thought is that people will return the bottles and cans to get their deposit back, but most people just throw them away. Thanks for watching! Cheers 🍻!

    There is no cheap (or expensive) American lager, that comes closer to an actual German lager. There is no doubt about it.
    It's off putting to most Americans, because most Americans don't like any hint of hops in their lawnmower beer.
    I'm almost positive that they're using a pretty good dose of Hallertauer hops.
