Re: Fall digging in Northern Minnesota

As Bob put it, It was a most excellent adventure up at Toms. Tom kept us in rust nearly the whole time, we dug every day up there except the day we left. I think it's the first time I brought home more cones than flats. I'm still cleaning cans but thought I'd share a few pictures. A2.JPG A1a.jpg A1....

Re: One Alpine

Nice little dig their Ted!
Good way to start the season with the Alpine, and a nice pint for the shelf.
I love the discoloration of the Meister Brau, I would like to have that and the Alpine if available.
These will look great on my ghost can shelf!
Thanks for sharing your adventure.

Thanks for the props and comments guys. Love the soda cans! Holiday soda was a staple in the Matson house in the 70's & 80s'. They were all flat tops, including the crimped steel. Those antler toilet paper dispensers are the coolest!! I've added quite a few Holiday cans this past year, the cola ...

Great day trip Bob, I've always liked that Falstaff can. I have one of them faded ones I dug down in the Ozarks years ago with Jay. Not many brewers used that three piece can. I can think of only two others, Budweiser and National Bohemiam. The Diet Rites are no slouches, and the Mission tabs are ki...

Looking Good Tom! Nice variety, and good condition on some of those.
really like the Old Crown pair, it's great when you can dig the Beer and Ale of the same brand. OIs to boot!
Also love the Schells and Gold Star cones, nice digs!!
