Guyfang they brought it back. Coors bought the name and original recipe, and Miller brews it in Milwaukee. Similar with what they did with Pabst several years ago. It's a good beer when it's ice cold and it's hot outside, and it doesn't cost much, about $5.95 for a 12 pack. I think the first beer I had on my 21st birthday was either a Hamm's or a Falstaff.I think the last time I had a HAMMS was 1971.
There are a couple of Beer Barns (stores) in in So. Cal and they have lots of beer, but the one you posted, I don't believe I have seen before.![]()

Here's what you need to really drink!
That's all I can remember off the top of my head from many, many years ago. Blue Oyster Cult's ME-262.
I remember Galland stating that when he first flew it, he felt as if he were being pushed by angels.

That's all I can remember off the top of my head from many, many years ago. Blue Oyster Cult's ME-262.
For another book, try Adolf Galland's The First and the Last.
I've also read Hans Ulrich Rudel's Stuka Pilot
Hana Reitsch (spelling) I Flew for the Fuhrer.
Can't remember who else but a lot of books over the years. Came very close to meeting Galland. He was in touch with a former P47 pilot that lived in our town and came to visit a couple times. I always found out after he left.
Working off memory bank:
Junker Jumo 004 engines . 6 x 30 mm MK108 cannons. It also had the ability to carry R4M rockets under the wings on certain versions. There was also the fighter-bomber, recon, and night fighter versions.
I remember Galland stating that when he first flew it, he felt as if he were being pushed by angels.
I found the album cover.The Blue Oyster Cult Album cover on the U.S. Issue depicted a ME-262 on the cover. On the back cover I believe it showed the band members dead, on the airstip, having been strafed by the ME-262. The german government forbid its sale here in germany, until a different cover could be printed. I still have my album, and play it every once in awhile. Fine music!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I second that recommendation, good book.Try:The Blond Knight of Germany
The Eric Hartman story. He shot down 352 Allied aircraft.
A little vid including a guest appearance from a P-51 Mustang.
Both the Messerschmitt and the North American seem to have elongated canopies. Wonder what that is about, passenger flights i guess?
