It seems like back then in the mid-90's the craft beer style was much more this kind of brown ale and red ales than today which seems to be dominated by ever-bitter and heavy IPA's. | |||

I remember it fondly. Good stuff! “Pete Goes Clubbing.” LOL "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown "The United States government is the largest criminal enterprise on earth." -rduckwor | |||

Wow, that is a name I haven't heard in a long time. Used to buy Petes all the time. Truthfully, didn't notice it disappear.

Deservedly so. Probably went to join Zima in the Hall of Crap. I have my own style of humor. I call it Snarkasm. | |||

I don't recall it being "crap" at all? In fact it was one of the first "micro brews" as craft beer was called then that I discovered and enjoyed. Now Zima, that was some crap! Did you know it came back this summer on a limited release and people were going nuts buying that garbage? | |||

Petes was never a "micro". It was always a marketing contract brew Decent for what it was ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Live today as if it may be your last and learn today as if you will live forever | |||

Back by popular demand......For a limited time.  In highschool the girls would drop a Jolly Rancher in them, then drink it. I almost considered buying a 6 pac for shits and grins, but I rather light a cigar with the ten spot over drinking that crap. Jesse Sic Semper Tyrannis | |||

I used to drink it. Not bad at all. There was another beer around that time with a yellow label. I think it the word brown in it. Real popular then fizzled out. Let all Men know thee, but no man know thee thoroughly: Men freely ford that see the shallows. Benjamin Franklin | |||

In the mid 90's I was working at a 7-11 part time and playing rugby as a intramural club sport at college. (We would play vs the same Cal team that would win national championships. Our college had no money for us so we self funded our travel. We only got to use their name and fields ) My beer distributor rep at 7-11 hooked me up with "get wicked tonight" t shirt and a Pete's wicked ale rugby shirt. Wore the t shirt out often got lots of comments. Still have the rugby shirt in the closet next to my college rugby shirt. They were based out of Palo Alto if I recall and we used to party up there before it was too expensive to even drive through that zip code. | |||
