Beer Swapping by ED
I just would like to have some Falstaff and Schlitz- Carling Black Label as well. Not a collector, just want some old time stuff to dress up my bar. I am also assembling some Pyramid, Widmer and Deschutes sixers. All Oregon or Washington. Hey, if you like, why not send me some for my Birthday, and I'll send you some OLY...it's the water baby! Ed

OLY...it the water baby? What does this mean? When is your birthday? Were you just drunk when you posted this, it doesn't make since, seriously? Also, you said in your bio., all your friends are dead or in jail or in AA, I don't understand, should you be there to? I don't mean to be controversial, I am just curious about what you mean because I am not sure? Please enlighten me.
In Reply To #4 Ahh, Staley. Your youth has betrayed you, my friend. OLY is Olympia Beer. Brewed from the clear, cold streams of water on Mt Olympia. http://www.reggie.net/photo.php?albid=193&ph=1797940. I remember Oly very well. It was a big brand that crashed real hard back in the 80s. Quite an interesting case story. http://www.kelleyad.com/mktcasehist.htm. And our new friend Ed is just employing a bit of humor to encourage sympathetic, nostalgic, or literary beer lovers to send him some Oregon or Washington state-brewed beers with which to adorn his bar. There's nothing wrong with a little humor in this crazy, screwed up world of ours. I'm willing to bet that Brother Ed's birthday falls on the same day you send him some free beer. Quick, Staley--1000 points if you can name another brewer from Tumwater, WA in 2 hours. Ready, GO!
In Reply To #7 No sweat, Staley. No offense intended, OK? And if you have more questions for Ed (such as, how can I get my hands on some Henry Weinhard's Private Reserve!?), fire away--I'm betting he can defend himself. But yeah, I'm glad I was able to help clarify things a bit. I implied a correlation between a person's age and whether they have ever sampled Oly. If that's true, then am not doing a good job of keeping my own age a secret! Speaking of age, and with respect to the forum topic of beer swapping, I'll just drop a hint that my birthday is coming up, too.... Cheers!
