Yeah but the 40oz is just classic!
And this is exactly why you put the brown paper bag on it.. then after you drink down to the label you inject the cold OJ. So in some forms or another, your beer should always bee cold!

King Cobra is the worse damn 40, besides Country Club; which in my book is a runner up if not tied.
Check out my review to them!
To Anheuser-Busch Companies,
You made one of the worse 40 ounces of all time. King Kobra
You tried to infiltrate the ghettos by making King Cobra and I have to take my hat off to you, you succeeded. But even then your 40 ounce was the weakest out, well Country Club is a good runner up. I want a stronger one from you! Stop making beer that taste like watered down brown bags steeped with wheat.
Stronger please!

I drank a lot of different mawlt lickor in my youth; King K, Mickey's, et al.
The worst was Country Club.
I may (re)start up my mini brewing system just to stick it to the man.

Yup Country Club is straight garbage!
Last night I was enjoying my 40/OJ and I noticed that Dole's OJ is from Oranges from Brazil.
Hmmm... interesting... did not know. So then I started to shift through past bottles of OJ in my recycling bin. I noticed damn near everyone of them (different brands as well) were also from Brazil..
Economic Plus for Brazil. Makes me wonder how the farmers here in US far with such a huge influx of oranges coming from Brazil.
I did some google search and this is what I found out....
* Brazil is the world’s largest producer of oranges, with 27% of world production
* Brazil produces 53% of all orange juice consumed in the world
* Brazil now has 700,000 hectares of orange groves while Florida is down to 280,000
* Brazil now exports 1.2 million tons of frozen concentrate a year. How much is that? 60,000 truck loads!
* One firm, Cutrale, controls about 40% of Basil’s orange juice processing capability and has annual revenues of around US$1 billion.
* Cutrale, because it is the largest, is the most reviled. In Brazil it is criticized because it keeps prices low for the producers. In the US, where it owns plants, it generates complaints for keeping wages low.
