Spotted today at Cumberland Brews, which is the owner of an impressive array of defunct brand beer cans…if the date on the can read “1979” rather than ‘78, I would’ve choked on my microbrew, bro…

It took a Kentuckian to remind me I’m glad to be back in Minnesota, where every can of beer is Andy’s beer. Psychically, I mean. 

Here’s what Rusy Cans Dot Com says about Andy’s Beer:

Andy’s Beer came out in several different designs and colors, none of which were particularly attractive, striking, or unique.

I beg to quibble. I think this can is extremely attractive, striking and unique, and I am — if you need reminded — a highly trained visual artist. It is unique and striking because it dares to say what all other beers only think: “I am Andy’s beer.” 

Also, in terms of attractiveness, I would like to point out that Andy’s Beer appears to come in many exciting pop-art shades of green, yellow, blue and orange. Q.E.D.
