route22ny:The World’s Largest Six-Pack in its glory days (top photo, uncredited) as part of the Heileman Brewery in La Crosse, Wisconsin. These tanks are actually filled with beer and play a role in the brewing process. Iconic Old Style beer was brewed here until 1996 when the brand was taken over by a megabrewery and lost its personality and flavor. The World’s Largest Six Pack survives, as does the former Heileman brewery itself which now houses City Brewing Company, which produces (among other brands) La Crosse beer (bottom photo, source). I don’t know whether people can still drive up spigots on the outer wall of the brewery and fill containers with the pure artesian well water that made beer brewed here so good, but they could in the Heileman days–and did. -- source link
