The TV series M*A*S*H was a popular comedy-drama series about army medics in the Korean War that ran from 1972-1983. It was known for its theme music, its well-developed characters, and for reflecting the nation’s evolving feelings about the Vietnam War. In the 1980s it inspired a novelty beer, brewed by Falstaff Brewing Corporation, and packaged in a camouflage can. Though the can promised “Premium Quality”, reviews by people currently determined to taste the 40-year-old and no-longer-produced beer range from “Ugggghhhh...” to “honestly i’ve had worse beer that was freshly canned” to “Another from the archive. Best one so far! Good carbonation.”
