Do they still make Löwbräu?

After Miller lost the US rights, Labatt brewed a licensed version of Lowenbrau for the US market from 1999 to 2003. The Labatt version was all-malt and supposedly faithful to the original German recipe. It was NOT the Miller Version. Currently Canada also get the German-brewed version, as well.

After that, the US again got Munich-brewed Lowenbrau but, now that it is owned and imported by ABInBev, it seems to be available only regionally in the US - primarily the northeast, accounting to reports in previous threads on the topic. It on the shelves in 12 packs in NJ.

My town just added a 2nd red light in JUST the place to harsh my commute.

The larger town a few miles up the hill has some decent restaurants and all the groceries.
Progress is not always progress. A 2nd light may help traffic but sure alters everyones day.

I can walk to 4 big box fast food joints. In a 10 mile radius there are 5 shopping malls, 3 Walmarts, 5 brand name grocery stores,
4 or 5 micro breweries and to many convenience store/gas stations and mom and pop eateries to count.

Mexican restaurants are on the rise. 6 have opened in the last 5 years, only 4 are still open.


The face of my neighborhood has changed drastically over the past 30 years. Progress is not always progress.o_O

Progress is not always progress.
i live in a tourist town, and they have the lights here set up to move blocks of traffic. it helps when the traffic is actually heavy, but it's annoying as hell to sit for 3 minutes at a light for no one....i've suggested to the city several times that they alter the lights between midnight and 7 am, make them run at double speed so you aren't sitting waiting for a block of traffic to pass that isn't there....but they don't seem to like the idea...or perhaps they can't do it themselves....or they just really like annoying the people who live here, who are the only ones out at that time...

@Aeroknow Is Shaky's pizza still on Olive Hwy in Oro? I know they got rid of Arby's, we used to stop there and get sandwiches and go sit at the lake and eat them, mmmmmm curly fries...
Yes sir! I don’t care too much for that pizza joint though lol.

I remember that Arby’s in O. I’ll get me some Arby’s in Chico when they kick down coupons. They don’t ever kick down the coupons anymore though :-(

The crazy Norse and Swedes will go from a sauna to rolling in the snow, and back. I would have a heart attack.
It's actually refreshing as hell - when we have snow we go straight from the Banya into the snow drift - when you finally get cold again (it takes a bit) we go straight back into the Banya.
Do that routine a couple of times & your squeeky clean, no shower required.
