cmhs59 Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 Actually during the 50's, Standard Dry Ale outsold all other beers/ales combined in the Rochester area. It was in 1958 that I went to my first ever drum corps show. Red Wing stadium in Rochester. We went to the Turners(?) Club for the after show party and I was introduced to Standard Dry. (Was there a Standard Cream Ale also?) I ended up driving the gang home. But that was OK--I wasn't old enough to drive either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msjbass Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 ALRIGHT, ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!!!Genesee does not get it's water from the river but from the Rochester watershed at Hemlock Lake. It is located 25 miles south of Rochester, NOT the Genesee River. This is also one of the source resevoirs for Rochester whose water quality is probably second only to NYC in water quality. And again, for those who do not know, NYC water has tested to be purer and tastes better, than most bottled waters. Genny products are brewed and made with products from the UNITED STATES. It employs people from the UNITED STATES. It has contributed to the economy of WNYS for over a century. It is one of the few products still owned by Americans, made in America, by Americans. As for taste, to each his own. But I will say, I will take Genny draft over any beer. It is consistently one of the finest, clean-tasting beers you can drink. Plus, no hangover. So for all you foo-foo, shee-shee, pinky finger in the air horse-urine beer drinkers....BITE ME. And BTW it's Kodak with a "k" not a "c" you dickweed. ......#### that felt good http://www.history.rochester.edu/class/beer/genny.htm Eddie = "And BTW it's Kodak with a "k" not a "c" you dickweed." Are you absolutely certain about this? Maybe it's "dicweed" Have a great alumni show Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heavyrifleguy Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 Yeah...but what about Cream Ale??? The next day...Do you remember the old brewery on Emerson Street? What was the swill they made...one was Topper Pilsener and Standard Dry Ale if I am remembering correctly. My uncle Bob was the only person I ever saw handle that stuff! Donny Wait a minute, wait a minute. Standard Dry was the beverage of choice when I first started with the old Crusader corps-of course, most of us were too young to know the difference.
