I may have entered the realm of: Too Much Beer!
Specifically, I have become the owner of my Grandfather's beer can collection. Complete, unopened beer cans with the beer still inside...
This collection started in the mid-50s and includes over 200 different types of beer!!
Imports, domestics, home-mades... many you've never heard of or have gone out of business....
I'm thinking of lining my garage wall with them...
Any other ideas?

Sweetness... I tried that once but I just drank the beer. lol j/k.
I collect alot of stuff, although beer cans arn't one of them. I like collecting Die Cast cars but I've been limited to that due to expense. =) I have a bunch of old Coke Cans and bottles downstairs. You have to be careful with the cans though, they can explode if you store them in a warm climate. ;)

a few years ago i worked in a bottle recycling plant and we would get pallets of old beer bottles from like the 40's and up. i got all sorts of bottles from up here and a few types that don't exist like "love beer" brand of beer.:D :D

Good idea to display them...just put them UP HIGH!!!!! If you ever run out on a Sunday early, and you feel desperate, you might just pop a top you wish you didn't! :eek: :)
I got some of the Coors 'Official Beer of the Alb. Balloon Fest' when I was there many years ago(went about 3 years in a row)....special cans w/ balloons..
Unfortunatley, my ex has them now...:rolleyes:
I rememeber when Schilitz was the biggie!!!! :) What was the one w/ the Big blue Bear on it??? I had a Tshirt of that one about 80 years ago...forget the name...I think it started w/ a S as well. But I could be wrong....:confused:
