From the Old Man's Cellar
Backpocket Beer

The truth is, you can tell a lot about a person by what they keep in their back pocket - a useful pocketknife, a lucky coin, a worn-out photo from an old love that has never died. Whatever it is, even if it wound up there by accident, there's a story behind it. A story that probably won't come out until you're in the right place, talking to the right people, with the right beer in hand. German-insired and hand-crafted right here at Old Man River, there's a Backpocket Beer perfect for every person, every occasion and - most importantly - every story.
