Brother and I out in the backcountry for a week hiking and fishing.
Found this beer can between some rocks.
Anyone know what year you last used can opener for beer?

    I have never used a can opener for beer, because I never drank beer. But yeah, that can is an oldie, fer sure! I found some like that along an old logging road in the mountains, one time. I guesstimated they were from the 1950s or early 1960s, at the latest.

    See? Not all rusty old cans are trash! That's pretty cool.
