I just finished watching some Season 1 epi's and they had the original cans. In "The Curse of the King Kamehameha Club" episode you could clearly see the gold lable/sticker wrapped around the can as the old man drank out of it.

Hi,
I am new to magnum-mania and the forum. Great site with lots of useful informations.
Concerning "Old Dusseldorf": I am not sure whether there has ever exist a brand named "Düsseldorfer alt" (=old dusseldorf) as a company name or a single grade.
A lot of brewerys producing something like old beer, and if it is produced in a small brewery directly linked to a bar in Dusseldorf down town ist is called Düsseldorfer alt.
Aha. I`ve some very similiar glasses, but not with "Düsseldorf" written on them and I think the one on the photo is a very large glass, not meant for drinking Altbier (Old beer)
Sometimes I get so lucky, even I don`t believe it (TSM)
I's prefer a bottle with Old Dusseldorf, but I guess I have to resort to a glass. Carmen, we Americans are rather like Magnum. We'll just drink our beers out of the long neck bottle
That`s what we do too, but this particular glass looks like one for "white beer" (the one with much barm (yeast) in it) so you have to pour it into a glass to have the full flavour of the barm *yuck*

Ich liebe Weißbier! ...or bière blanche as we call it in my part of Switzerland. Little slice of lemon - mmm very refreshing in the summer.
However, I imagine an Old Dusseldorf as a dark wintry sort of beer. I'm not sure why though.
"How fiendishly deceptive of you Magnum. I could have sworn I was hearing the emasculation of a large rodent."
