I love anchor steam. I can't decide if its actually good, or if it's just nostalgia. The beer kinda tastes bad, but like, charmingly bad? Like sucking on pennies.

An 80 year headstart on your competition really shouldn't end this way.

This is terrible! I don't know anyone who likes beer who doesn't like Anchor Steam. I'm honestly shocked that none of the big boys have stepped up to buy the brand. Though, I guess maybe they're waiting for bargain basement prices in liquidation. Gutted.

Very sad. Anchor Steam is one of my favorite beers.
