I don't know what the deal is, but all 40's in Canada are shaped like the middle one. Just like an oversized beer bottle.

I always liked the 'classic' 40 shape, like the one on the right...hm...sadly though, it will remain forever out of reach

I like an occassional bottle of OE. Gotta keep it the freezer though. When it gets warm it's pure hell.

OE is perfect to relax to after 12 hrs of hard labor. I do it 72 hrs a week and I print O.E. The tiger makes me thirsty. When you're 6'3 230 lbs it takes 4 OE 40s to get me a buzz. :evil:

Knew a buddy that killed 4 OE 40's in one sitting once. He spent that night alternating between puking and screaming for us to take him to the hospital.

Lightweight.
Course, I started out that way at 5'10 165 lbs. (block/brick and printing laborers gain muscle FAST)!!
Drinking goes hand in hand with blue collar labor pos. Only Pussies wear Gloves!

Yup! That's why you can play connect-the-dots with the burn scars on the back of my hands. Welding - Gloves = WAAHOOHAH!!

Jesus, I remember back when we used to just get huge piles of those things...drink two or three plus, you know, various other beers and liquor type things and various stuffs. This entire apartment (I didn't live there, so it wasn't my fault or problem) was littered with empty OE 800 bottles...and something like 30 or 40 stale donuts...every surface with a depression was crowned by a puddle of indeterminate hooch...those people were ridiculous. But it was definitely a good time.

OE got me through many a night closing the movie theater I where I used to work. OE High Gravity is a nice changeup from the regular 800 too.
