Old Düsseldorf in a long neck
Magnum always ordered this beer. Does anyone know if this is an actual beer? I’d love to get it for nostalgic purposes.

shareDüsseldorf is the capital city of North Rhine-Westphalia (a German state), well known for its Altbier (literally “old [style] beer”).
So in a sense any Altbier from one of Düsseldorf’s many distilleries would be an “old Düsseldorf”.
Having said that, Magnum’s favorite beer—specifically named Old Düsseldorf—was a fictional American brand, created for the show.
When he couldn't get Old Düsseldorf, his fallback beer was “Coops” (also fictional, and possibly just a generic studio prop based on Coors).
Ah, thanks for the reply. Too bad it’s fictional.
shareI'll have one!
