[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Strohtour.jpg

Image:Strohtour.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] Present tense?

I understand that Stroh Brewery is no longer in the sense that it's no longer independent, but I'm looking at my can of Stroh's right now and it clearly says:

THE STROH BREWERY CO.
P.O. BOX 739, MILWAUKEE, WI 53201

Is there a reason this article shouldn't be written in the present tense? --Elliskev 00:12, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

The article should be written in the present tense. The Stroh Brewery Company is still alive. Although now it's just a dummy name for the Pabst Brewing Company. All the brands that were bought and that now fall under Pabst retained their original company name. For instance, Pearl & Country Club still say Pearl Brewing Company, and Lone Star is says the Lone Star Brewing Company. However, all of this is just a ruse, since every drop of every beer that falls under the Pabst umbrella is produced by a 3rd party contract brewer (usually Miller). --Brownings 05:05, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] McSorley's

I think it is notable that Stroh's Brewery makes the beer for McSorley's Old Ale House, a famous bar in Manhattan Smooth0707 (talk) 04:32, 20 January 2008 (UTC)
