Highboy Beer

Wondering if anyone else has seen this. Thought is was pretty cool and worth sharing. Might just be an Austin, Texas thing.

I doubt I'll ever see those out here but I would buy one in a heart beat if I do. They should have got the grill right, but still cool anyway.

Cool design, but probably a trash beer. IPAs are getting unbearable now with all this hop extract nonsense.

I think they're all the same beer.
It's not so much about who can come up with the best tasting beer, but rather it's about who can come up with the 'coolest' name for a beer...

It's been prolly a couple months since I cracked one open, but I usually just go for an unglamorous Miller's High Life!

It appears that they also neglected to specify that High Boys are 4WD, and the truck on the can almost looks more like a Bullnose than a Dentside, but I'd still try their beer. However, if it tastes like Pabst, I might not finish it...

I'm a Miller beer guy too... Lite, MGD light, MGD, and High Life.

Our race team bear is "805"... a wheat beer made in San Luis Obispo, CA... it's sweet roast goodness!

My thinking exactly...ALL IPA's are Garbage.
I am deeply offended by this cheap attempt to associate an American Icon with a ****ty beer.

But the Can does look pretty cool....I would buy it.
