Re: An old beer is coming back!
There are already at least four different cans out this year in CT. I wasn't too impressed with their Lager but haven't tried the other products yet.

Re: An old beer is coming back!
Hopefully someone will bring some to Spring Thaw...I'd love to taste and to have a can for the collection.

Why drive 12 hour one way to dig Pre-Tax Tru Blu ales, Genny 12 Horse Longopeners, Gamecock Ales, Apollos, Neuweilers Bock, and Krueger’s Baldies when you can locally drive 10 hours round trip and dig Pfeiffer, Goebel, Drewrys and Strohs?

Re: An old beer is coming back!
Back in the June there was an interest in Retro cans. We had the Hull's for the retro list, but didn't include it in the final list because it didn't really resemble any of their original cans. Here's a link:

And here's what they've been offering in 12oz and 16oz (from the COLA site)

My father told me he used to drink it from time to time in the late 50's while living in Torrington, but his favorite was Schaefer.

Re: An old beer is coming back!
I remember drinking Hulls back in the mid 70s while passing thru Connecticut. Very local distribution. They also picked up Holihan's and sold that in the greater Lawrence, Mass. area. Both were very drinkable.
