Okay I do not know what Malt Marrow is , or what the old man on a Cream Top is doing ,
and Purple Cow is certainly a head scratcher , but at least theres some beauty there .
Does anyone have a desire to display cans like these ?

After I saw this one for the first time, I tried to think of some can, ANY can, that I thought was in poorer taste. So far I haven't come up with one ...

The brown note is a classic reference from an episode on South Park! If I had one, I would put it on my shelf.

Conflating your brew with poo seems a somewhat counterproductive, not to mention risky, strategy.

but they decided to run with it. I suspect it was their #2 choice though.

There's a whole series of these, one set with fried chicken (it was a promotion where you bought beer and chicken together) and one with t shirts. I think there's a hamburger and fries one.

PS: Brown Note is actually pretty decent beer. All of the cans from All Grain are equally weird too.
I dump cans and cars, if you find old cars & trucks while dumping, please let me know.

The South Park reference is pretty funny, but I can't see that being something I would want to be seen buying at the store.

So where is the gov't agency that regulates labeling (or used too) now a-days? Are they out on a bathroom break?

Sorry to say...It's been approved! Took a while, but I tracked it down. By the way, they're in the BCCA Current Cans Supplement.
