That's not new Orrie. My Dad passed away in 1990 but he was a mason all his life and every block wall he ever built "on the side" - meaning weekends, had beer cans in the block cells. Of course those old Coors, Hamm's and Burgermeister cans had the old triangle shaped opening in the lids. That was before the pop top.

P.S. Thanks for writing "masonry" blocks. So many people say cinder block and NO ONE uses "cinder" block anymore or really ever in the West. Cinder block was made in part from industrial waste.
