Neither had I. I don't actually drink beer myself; I found most of those names at
http://www.realbeer.com/spotlight/abm/names.html

when I did a Google search to spellcheck Old Frothingslosh. The only ones I remembered on my own were Iron City, O.F., Pabst, and Schlitz. I couldn't find another reference to "Rasberry" when I tried to spellcheck it.

I know; that's the problem. The only reference Google found to "Rasberry Leghumper" was that page, but there were no hits at all when I searched for "Raspberry Leghumper". I probably should have just put a (sic) on that name.

Not a beer drinker, but...

"Schaefer is the one beer to have when you're having more than one."

I think that was a Philly brand of beer, and I think it's gone now. Not sure. Just remember that jingle from childhood.
