Weekend Challenge #4...Done

[MI-Cans]

This should be a reasonable challenge for that space between the ears. Some will be easy. Others, not so much. Your expertise should be put to the test. How many do you know without looking them up?

Hmmmm . . . #6 is a product of its time. I assume Schlitz was the answer, but flattop versions of the propeller can are now also known by Jacob Ruppert, Seattle Brewing & Malting, Miller and I believe it was Golden West that turned up most recently?

@Rockbob
Very Impressive show of knowledge of can details! Only 1 incorrect and that was a guess.

I'm thinking everybody will be watching how you handle Thursday's batch of new trivia questions or if anyone will challenge your obvious skills.

Good luck to you and anyone else willing to take a guess at the next batch of answers.

Now for the answers. Here's the same part of the quiz questions posted above but I left their answers in place.

You'll notice that they reference the Beer Cans Unlimited (BCU) and The Beer Can Collector's Bible (Bible) with their answers. I referenced those links with the Supplements to gather the images.

The images are numbered according to the quiz number and then the question number. (example 1-5 indicates the first quiz, the fifth question) If there are multiple cans in an answer, alpha letters are added.

Their answer for question #6 only provided two brands. So I give Bob credit for a correct answer even though it was incomplete. Back then, the Brothers only knew of two, I guess.

I'm showing four verified versions, three from the Supplements and one from the 2014, July-August issue of Rustlings Newsletter.

Marc mentioned in his post a Miller version. I haven't found anything to correlate that info. Anybody got any info on that possible version, please let me know.

See ya on Thursday!
