I never tried this...was it any good? I heard the containers are considered a collectors item.

Containers, empty or full, are collectible. As for the beer, it wasn't great. Tasted kinda like Schlitz... -

Billy (Carter) Beer
I bought some back when it came out. Schlitz was about 100 times better than it. I thought about keeping a 6 pack for a collectors item, but after I drank some of it, I didn't want it around to infect the good beer."I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in."-Kenny RogersComment

Interestingly enough, they've reintroduced the original Schlitz formula (as close as they can get it) in several major cities and it is outstanding (and beating expectations). The reformulated stuff (started in the 60's or 70's) was really the precursor to all the bland Bud-like beers that I can't stand.
If you have a chance to try the new (old) Schlitz, give it a taste.Comment

Unfortunately, the words 'collectors item' is mis used much like the word antique.
I suppose it's technically a collectors item if you can get more than you paid for it, but I'm sure we're not talking any more than $20 or so here.You don't need a parachute to skydive, you only need a parachute to skydive twice.Comment
