Anyone know if they purposely misspelled throughly? Found this on the 1936 editions they have out right now

College-trained geniuses running the art dept. They'd probably argue that it's correct.
Oh, it's thoroughly, BTW. Probably too big of a word for their little label.
http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/thoroly
Etymology
Proposed as a phonetic spelling of thoroughly in 1898 by the American National Education Association.
Oh...well, there you go! They probably did do it on purpose. "Hey look, we can totally get away with this!"Quote:

I should probably confiscate that beer. Merely for your protection, of course.

While I would never endorse drinking Coors if there are other options, it was recently ranked #3 in the best cheap American beers list. (Remember when Rolling Rock was good?)Quote:

Rolling Rock was good? Damn, those must have been the days. [LOL]I don't mind Coors Original- now Coors Light, that stuff is damn near water. Same with Bud Light. But if I have a choice in the matter, I will chose something a little better than one of the big 3.Quote:

Rolling Rock before A-B InBev bought them = more better.
But hell, I came up drinking Little Kings and Hudy Delight.
Coors, now proudly served at Brokeback Brewhaus. [gayafro]Quote:

Oh man guys! I was at a party in Fort Collins and it was in the cooler. Free beer is good beer
No doubt- Everything is better when it's free.

Did 'banquet' have a different cultural/contextual meaning back in the day? I get the mental picture of a wedding reception, which makes me want hard alcohol not beer.
Didn't you guys know that "Thoroly" is simply ebonics for white folks?? [Beer]
No. When was Rolling Rock good? We used to say it was the closest thing to water in Philadelphia (water from the Surekill stank -- literally -- and tasted horrible).Quote:

Could be worse Schlitz, Falstaff and Hamms. Without Coors we would not have Smoky and the Bandit. I never called it Banquet it was always "regular" or "real" Coors.
Hey, Coors might be the baquet beer but PBR won a gold
medal....about 120 years ago.
Just checked with the wife who works for coors. They are doing on purpose for commemorative cans/ bottles for 75 years of these: http://www.ebay.com/itm/1937-COORS-G...-/271074590872
Correction- Blue Ribbon... that's what beers win, gold medals are for the Olympics. [Coffee]Quote:

[LOL] Reminds me of the conversation in The Kingdom between the "nerd" (I guess) and Chris Cooper about PBR...Quote:

It's just what Adolf Coors wanted to call it. But they went back to the name because they wanted to hammer out the idea that they haven't changed it since it was first brewed in the 1880's.Quote:

and since the recipe has been around for 135 years someone must like the taste.
I was 4 years old when I tried my first beer. It was at a party in a park in Culver City, CA for a friend of my dad and he had brought Coors that he brought from Colorado for the party. This would be in 1959. I liked it. I have liked beer ever sense. Beer is good for you, have another. I guess, now that I think about it, that is why I have always wanted to come to CO. Ain't never goin' back. If someone offers me a Coors, I won't turn it down. (Just had a Laughing Lab Scottish Ale, good but weak for a Scottish)
Our beer of choice at the shop for sure.... we cant afford to drink "high end" beers in our quantities [Beer] we would go broke in a week!!!!
