Just how much do you love beer? Enough to wear your favorite beer's label right on your sweater? If so, you'll love AJ Fosik's vintage collection of knitted beer sweaters.

According to Fosik, "All of these sweaters were unearthed by me, rescued from moldy basements, plucked from dingy backwaters and ripped from the backs of greasy shitleopards."

The sweaters, which are from the 70s and 80s, are not for sale. But maybe someone will hop on to this awesome idea and start producing them again. Sign me up for an Anchor Steam beer sweater.

as much as beer is good and

as much as beer is good and sweaters keep you warm... this is excessive.
i call it being a 'brand whore.' i do not mean to say that because a female is wearing the sweater, but basically a person is becoming the brand's bitch by wearing something like this. it's unbelievable that someone would proudly wear such a thing.

HaHa I actually got my

HaHa I actually got my Budweiser sweater (above) in '02 when I was eighteen... My friend got it from another friends dad (who supposedly wore it back in high school during the dazed n confused days)... It was laying around collecting dust so I asked him if I can have it because I kinda liked it! After little negotiating, I took it off his hands for a gyro sandwich and a pack of cigarettes (Don't ask... We were young and dumb at the time!) I wore it out a couple times for just special occasions such as X-mas party and got a lot of great responses from it... Since then I have worn it a lot because its definitely eye-catching and a great conversation starter among us Bud lovers... I have also been offered as mush as $300 for it yet chose to keep the 40 year old sweater because every time I put it on, its like brand new! :)
