Back about 1978 that was my beer for awhile. I was working building rock quarries, conveyors, rock crushers, etc., usually started work around 0630 and arrive home around 2045 (8:45pm). The formula was: Open one mickey's, start drinking before shower, shower, open 2nd mickey's and eat supper if wife decided we were having supper, or eat whatever was loose in the refrigerator if not, drink 3rd mickey's, go to bed.
I would have been welding and cutting steel in a cloud of lime dust most days, the skunk taste would at least cut through that, and 3 of them pretty much guaranteed a good night's sleep. Alternative therapies would have been 6 Busch tall-boys, or 12 PBR's.
Mickey's will slap you down.
Haven't had one in years. Working on a Cigar City IPA tonight. Still a little skunky.

I didn't start drinking beer until I was in college, Micky's was still popular then, but we'd usually start the evening by beer bonging Olde English 800 Talls.

I read it as "Coffee Stout" the first time. Then on more careful analysis I realized it was "Coffee Soda." Thought you fell off the wagon for a moment there!

No, I just meant the cart looked nice, not the umbrella drinks you bought.
