Brew 102, I remember it well!!! And the Koufax/Drysdale Era, there was No better time to be a Dodger Fan! You just knew they would Win 20+ games a year each, without relief!I think I was closer to 9 or 10 when my grandfather started to share a local Los Angeles brew which is now long gone, 'Brew 102' was its name and it was actually quite good. My grandmother would fix us sandwiches and we'd sit out back drinking & listening to the Dodgers on the radio, guess this was around 1960- 1961 when Sandy Koufax, Don Drysdale, Larry Sherry, Maury Wills, Johnny Roseboro, Tommy & Willie Davis, Wally Moon & Duke Snyder were raising hell. I'm not much of a baseball fan any longer, but it was only a few years after this that Juan Marichal hit Roseboro over the head with his baseball bat, and from that day to today I hate every sports team San Francisco will ever produce. Good memories about Brew 102, thanks 'for 1'st beer' ever idea.

Paul Kalmanovitz, owner of Maier, specialized in leveraged buy-outs, which take over businesses to sell off their parts for profit, closing plants and laying off employees. After a takeover in St. Louis, brewery employees flew the American flag at half-staff and upside down.
In 1975, after Kalmanovitz gained control of Falstaff, most of its 175 corporate office employees were laid off. Some of the employee's severance checks bounced. “Kalmanovitz thought nothing of throwing hundreds of brewery workers out onto the streets, cutting off their pension and health benefits … ” according to one historian. Forbes magazine wrote that “Kalmanovitz went through Falstaff like Grant through Richmond. ... He took no prisoners.”
In a 1979 court case, Bloor v. Falstaff, Kalmanovitz's brewery was fined $1.3 million. The judges described his management style as "Profit Uber Alles".
Personally, he has been described as mean-spirited, controlling and eccentric. He banned telephones from his office and every time he would catch his employees installing a line, he would rip it out.
After his death, a former legal secretary said, his associates toasted him with Jack Daniel's, saying, "Ding dong the king is dead

My family has a cabin over on Angel Point. We definitely need to meet up this summer and have a pint or two! :cheers:I live down the street from the tamarak in lakeside. These 2 brews are quite nice but when I'm there, I usually get one of their tap beers which includes seasonal and one-off varieties. There food is some of the best in the whole valley.
I also like Mai Tai 's with a floater of meyers.
My first drink while watching a Rams game was in 1966, living in LA, watching it on TV while listening to buck and stramm on the radio broadcast. My grandfather had a great bar with hundreds of little airport bottles of liquor and other unique alcohol related paraphernalia from around the world. He taught me how to make him a martini and would usually give a sip or two.
Lucky Lager is still around, now owned and brewed by Pabst Brewing Co. Only sold in BC Canada and Washington State. They also own and brew Olympia and Rainier, both of which used to be brewed in Wash. State.
While stationed at Fort Lewis, toward the end of the month when all us GI's were broke, we would pile into the van and head to Olympia to "sample" the beer at the Olympia Brewrey until they kicked us out, then head down the road to the Raineir Brewry and do the same thing. They were pretty tolerant (patriotic?), knowing we were active Army. It was a monthly thing:yay:
