Hubba Hubba Old Frothingslosh


 
One of the more unique brands of beer has been Pittsburgh Brewing’s Olde Frothingslosh. It was invented as a joke by Pittsburgh radio station KDKA’s Rege Cordic in the early 1950s. The local brewer picked up the idea as a humorous Christmastime promotion and “the pale stale ale” ended up as the inspiration for about 30 different beer cans, most created specifically for collectors.
 
Here are a couple pictures of the Old Frothingslosh beer cans that are in my collection.
 
Think I'll stick with "Penny"!
