For the past couple of weeks in my town, many of the stores here haven't had the chance to restock items, leaving many empty shelves. There are three regular stores I frequent where I have talked to the employees, and they confirmed that regular shipments aren't coming in, or they only have half the items that are usually delivered. Has anyone else experienced this phenomenon? I remeber that there was talk of a planned food shortage in the U.S on GAW about two months or so ago, so it definitely piqued my curiosity after personally encountering some weird situations.

My wife can't find her St Pauli Girl beer and she is really bumming out. I suggested Pabst Blue Ribbon and was a recipient of "the look"....
HAHAHAH, PBR.....you deserved that look.

Hamms is a pretty good alternative to PBR.
Great ice cold, not worth a damn hot or shaken.
I love Hamms. I will occasionally mix in an Olympia, Shaefer, Weideman, or Schlitz if I can find it. Shit beers are the best beers. I used to have an old Hamms Beer Bear sign. I need to find it.
My grandfather use to tell stories about jumping out of airplanes while in the Army with a 6pack of PBR in his rucksack. He was a paratrooper in WW2. I miss that man. He said if any bottles broke during your landing you’d catch hell from your squad. He never broke any bottles and drank pbr until the day he died. Me, I’ll have one in his memory every once in awhile but it’s not my fav.
Olympia and Falstaff. Oh wait, Falstaff’s gone.
And Schlitz!
Howls...
Back in the day (80’s) I worked in a wine shop/beer & liquor store. Wine shop was huge. Anyway it was revealed that (then, dunno about now?) that St Pauli Girl WAS Becks with different marketing ie labeling etc. Same German brewery etc. Seemed then it got to be common knowledge.
Were does Warste8ner fit in that mix?
I know I had "the look" just reading your suggestion to her.
I've also noticed a beer shortage. think I need to learn how to make my own, should probably order supplies before they're gone too.
Ha that's weird. In law dropped off a case for me yesterday because they were so cheap when he went to get himself one.
Busch NA also. It's been a few weeks.
I tried that and Bud Zero...But are pretty good....
Bud Zero is alright, but it isn't Busch NA. You're not in KY by chance?
I was raised there, Ashland to be exact, so it was a natural move to live where I do now...I am still a proud hillbilly who let's his opinion be known with a twang...
She's not that young anymore... maybe you could suggest she switch to Big Helga
I will see if we can locate Big Helga. Thanks for the tip fren!
