How could I forget about the marzen's?  

BestImage result for Hacker-Pschorr Original Oktoberfest

The Marzen beers are definitely my favorite. Between Hacker and Hofbrau, it’s why autumn is my favorite time of year. 

Stiegl Goldbrau is also a personal fave- they serve it on tap at The Bavarian Lodge in Lisle, one of my favorite hangs...

I love their Pale Ale.

Agreed.  My wife's uncle is a (former) graphic artist, and he designed their labels.  They were done (originally) the old-fashioned way, with paint.  He resides in Magalia, CA.  If you saw the story during the #CampFire about the horse/mule that survived the fire in someone's swimming pool... that was on his property.

The labels are beautiful and reminiscent of the CA orange crates I used to store my albums in. LOL

Found this beer through reading books by Todd Borg based on the Lake Tahoe area.

The beer refreshing!

We drank that in college, we could get warm cases for a buck cheaper.  We'd buy it warm, throw it in the fridge and start drinking the warm stuff.

The motto was "if it ain't room temperature, it ain't Hamms".

Good times.

Ahhh yes we did the same thing with Schaefers.  My friends dad owned a store and he let us buy Schaefers at "cost" which in the early to mid 80's was about $2.00 a case. 

So when I was a kid growing up on a farm in NE Wisconsin my dad used to keep a 12 pack of Stroh's on the back of the tractor to drink while we worked.  No big deal right?  Well... It started out cold but it go gradually warmer and my dad would chug it like gatorade.  Even at 9 or 10 years old I said to myself that's just wrong.
