While attending Oakland A’s and Oakland Raiders games at the Oakland Coliseum and concerts or Warriors games at the Coliseum arena back in the early 1980s, my only choices of beer were either a cup of Schlitz or Old Milwaukee.
The Coliseum complex only sold these two beers, so my choice was always Schlitz because Old Milwaukee was undrinkable. By the late 1980s, the Coliseum improved its beer choices to include other mainstream beers, such as Budweiser or Miller.
Fans of Schlitz beer will no longer be able to get it at any stadium, arena, bar, or store, as the brewery’s owner, Pabst Brewing Company, stopped producing the beer at an Anheuser-Busch plant in Texas this year, according to KBTX-TV.
Schlitz, once the world’s largest brewing company, will brew its final batch and discontinue production on May 23, according to Milwaukee Magazine.
