  I would like to throw in my 2 cents on the topic of Stag Beer. I drank almost nothing but Stag in 1970-79 and thoroughly enjoyed its robust, dry and — yes — unique taste. Stag was brewed only in Belleville, Ill. Then in early 1979, the owner closed the brewery and, later that year, sold it to Heileman Brewing Co. Stag was never the same after that. It tasted pretty much like a lot of other Heileman beers: Yellow-colored Alka-Seltzer. Fizzy, with little body or taste. I miss the old Stag Beer — a lot!!!
