    Well, Bigfoot must have tasted like Atlas Prager or Schlitz at the time, because I've read Jim Koch claim that before "his Samuel Adams" hit the market, all American beer tasted the same - yellow, light and fizzy. Since SA Boston Lager didn't hit the market until 1985, a 1983 Bigfoot couldn't have been the same beer it is today. :wink:

    Maybe Mr. Koch thought it was a wine instead of a beer? :wink:

    Oh, it's alluded to here and there, or the opposite misconception that good beer has been around forever. And yeah, this century. :grinning:

    Is there anywhere to buy a nice Big foot poster (aside from ebay) I can't seem to find one on the sierra nevada website.
