Free beer is good. A friend of mine named his band "Free Beer" they
always wrote that on the sign in front of the bar. Got mixed results....



There's an old (1933) Jimmy Durante/Buster Keaton movie where the G-Men are
coming to inspect "The Old Defunct Brewery" (Prohibition era).

The brewery was suppose to be making non-alcohol beer. They weren't (duh!!).
The madcap solution to the coming raid .... drive through town with a sign -
FREE
BEER AT THE BREWERY.

The town folk came running, and drank up all of the contraband, before the
G-Men could finger Jimmy Durante and investor friend, Buster Keaton. Funny
slapstick gangster-brewery movie.

Oh, the (love interest) girl gets water on her dress, and of course, needs
to take it off at one point in the movie. 1933 - The more things
change...... g

What! No Beer? (1933)
