[edit] Second-Chance Beer
Can we expand upon what it means to be a "second-chance" batch. I'm not familiar with that phrase and can't seem to find it on google/wikipedia/etc. Tvh2k 00:38, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
I think basically it just means it tastes like shit. The stuff that doesn't make the 'quality control' for coors goes to keystone.. mmm crappy beer
the article contradicts itself- it says that it's "second-chance", and then goes on to say that Coors claims that it's not...which one is correct?
[edit] Second Runnings
As far as I can tell it's talking about what is called Second Runnings.
This is when a brewer makes a high gravity beer like a barleywine, after all the wort for the barleywine is collected there is enough sugars left in the mash grain to collect wort for a second low gravity beer.
But I can't imagine how this can be accurate when pertaining to Coors. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 216.240.27.23 (talk) 20:50, 8 February 2007 (UTC).
[edit] An Interesting Fact
A curiosity of Keystone (Light) is that if you examine any single Keystone can, it will have a dent somewhere in it, usually around the top taper. Rumor has it that these are defective, relabeled Coors cans. This is a 100% guarantee to anyone who takes the time to check them out (I have checked probably hundreds). If this could be referenced, it could be an interesting factoid addition to the article. Static3d 07:15, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
