Buy me a case and I'll give it a try. Might not be pretty by the time I empty the bottles





Sorry, I forget I don't even have a TIG machine yet, but I'll work on emptying the bottles.

I've seen plenty of empty beer cans welded together. It's time to weld some full ones!

Desperate for Iron City Beer in Los Angeles

Hello Everyone,

I really want to make by boss happy - she's a big Steelers fan and really wants to get some Iron City Beer - ordering from Pitts Brew Co will take too long to ship - does anyone have any idea if I can locate any in the Los Angeles Area for pick up on Saturday?

If so please contact me at Wldhrtca@yahoo.com

Thanks for all your help - GO Steelers!!!!!!!

Call a couple big distributors, and ask if they distribute it, and if so, to whom...a lot of store carry lots of "odd" beers.

Ask for Eddie-

He said they have it.

I'm sure if the West Hollywood store has it then the other stores in LA carry it-

God, you guys are bringing back memories of my mis-spent youth. IC Beer and White Castles, great at the drive in movies with the girl friend. I now live in a big IC area.

I have TIG'd beer cans together, but stopped at a 6 pack.

tried welding myself inside a beer keg once, but by the time I drank enough to make room for the welder, I forgot what I was in the keg for to begin with, and by that time I didn't care anyway.
