As a Milwaukeean I must say that I have never heard of Steel Brewing Company before. The splash image on their website shows "Milwaukee, WI" but the row of cans afterwards has "Fortworth." Various beer websites state that the company is in Longview, TX while a Whois lookup on the domain lists Mckenzie River Corporation of San Francisco, CA with no phone numbers. Can someone more familiar with the product look in to this? [[User:72.131.44.247|72.131.44.247]] 01:29, 30 April 2006 (UTC)

Several changes, mostly for readability. Feel free to make comments/improvements.--Elgringo18 23:41, 9 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ramones?

I'm not sure this page is completely factual. I'm a Ramones fan, and I've never, ever, ever heard of any songs by them referencing Steel Reserve 211. I suspect that much of the page is sourced from the Steel Reserve website, which is purely for marketing purposes, and has a section where users can listen to the supposed Ramones songs. I am unable to verify from listening, as I use dial up. The point is, I think this article needs a bit more research. TheMightyGrecian 09:58, 13 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Those songs are most likely by the Ramones. If not they sound exactly like them. I am absoultely sure this article is not factual. Steel Brewing Company also makes Sparks which is a premium malt beverage. -josh. 1/19/06

The songs are creditied as "performed by" the Ramones on Steel Reserve's website. It also says it was for a radio ad, so most likely they just tapped the Ramones to get the sound they wanted for their commercials. The current article does seem non-NPOV, which I aim to fix right now. Um, while incidentally drinking a Steel Reserve. Please have mercy ofr any tyops. >hickup< Durty Willy 04:04, 16 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Right now I'm living in student accommodation and this stuff is what everyone drinks coz its cheap and hella strong. I'm glad to pay twice as much to drink Corona. - m0rt 3/8/06

8.1% alcohol by volume... the stuff gets you tanked. Doesn't taste as bad as reported. What do you expect?

I'm not sure that Steel Reserve was the first beer to have "High Gravity" on the label. I believe that St. Ides High Gravity was available earlier. Senatorpjt 00:03, 28 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Milwaukee, WI

As a Milwaukeean I must say that I have never heard of Steel Brewing Company before. The splash image on their website shows "Milwaukee, WI" but the row of cans afterwards has "Fortworth." Various beer websites state that the company is in Longview, TX while a Whois lookup on the domain lists Mckenzie River Corporation of San Francisco, CA with no phone numbers.

Steel Reserve is a brand created by the McKenzie River Corporation whose contents are produced by Miller Brewing. In July 2006, Miller Brewing announced that they were acquiring the Steel Reserve brand.[1]Jvandyke 03:47, 5 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
