RIP Old Tankard Ale

They changed from 4-packs?

 

My favourite Super Premium back in the day was Erlanger but it's good to see that Andeker is making a comeback of sorts.

 

Oops, 4 4ers. I dont count so well when im drinking

 

Not anytime soon.

 

Are there dates on them? I usually check, but they had me at 1.99.

 

Don't remember about dates since those I had were most all purchased within a month of so of the intital release and I've not really found any since.

But that price would worry me a bit that the ones you bought were more than a couple of months old. Have you tried one yet? It would be interesting to hear your reactions to those you found.

Edit: One of the recent reviewers in the database says there was a best by date of 6/15/17 on his.

 

Yes. Tasting like Old Tankard. Great buy in my book. Came across them at a Woodman's in Beloit Wi.

 

Great. Enjoy what you found at that price. From the OP it sounds like we'll not be seeing it again.

 

It looks like DEC 2016 CANNED. Still tasting fine though.

 

Old school is cool. I like that beer, but I wish the old Young's London Special, Ramrod, Dirty Dick, and Oatmeal Stout were still extant. I never saw the Old Tankard around here, but I surely would've tried it!

 

Perhaps some of that Pabstish reverse snobbery marketing could tip the scale? I'd sure as hell buy it, being a tried and true nostalgian!

 

I remember that day- it took me like 15 minutes of constant taplist searches on Beermenus before I could find one that had any English ales on it. Once upon a time it was just the opposite, and I would just wish I could find some Anchor or Sierra Nevada in a sea of English ales. Maybe things will eventually balance out in the future .
