How Did This 50-Year-Old Beer Taste?

When Diane and Ed Nusselhuf married in 1971, they bought themselves a can of Coors beer, which they promised to drink on their 50th wedding anniversary. For nearly five decades, that can of beer followed them to Wisconsin, Minneapolis, British Columbia, Maryland and finally, South Dakota, KCAU reported. But Sadly, Ed passed away in 2016, just five years short of the anniversary. But Diane celebrated on the date with her son, Ben. “Here’s to you, Ed,” Diane said as they toasted to her late husband.

So sad for her husband . Their plan was good indeed!

[@JifalosJM]

Yep ;( may him rest in peace

[@SDayle]

No plan involving expired food is good but setting a goal 50 years into the future is certainly very interesting.

[@adino2909]

Jesus Christ loves you. He died for your sins. Please find him in your life( if you haven't ), he is the truth, the light, and the way.🙏✝️.

[@kaycampbell8532]

[@Frenite]

Glad they got to celebrate the anniversary, even though the husband passed. The can of beer was a time capsule in itself and signified so much in their marriage. I’m surprised it still tasted good.

What? What do you mean with the carbon footprint amount?

@@mancerrss Right? I doubt it has a higher carbon footprint then most people just because it was transported whenever they changed homes.

I would have put it in the refrigerator for a day before opening it. If I’m going to have a beer 🍺 it better be cold. My folks always took coors with them on vacations to Florida. Tasted great after a day at the beach 🏖 and being in the ice chest all day.
