In 1846 a California-bound party had to hole up in the mountains during a cold one. Today at a party, you might hold up a cold one whose label reveals those mountains.

ugh - they ate each other:

google 1846 Cannibalism and you' ll get:

Their limited food gave out, the cold continued, and the suffering of the group, camped on Alder Creek and Donner Lake , grew intense. A party that attempted to make its way through the snow-choked passes in December suffered horribly. The surviving members of the Donner Party were driven to cannibalism. Finally, expeditions from the Sacramento valley made their way through the snowdrifts to rescue the hunger-maddened etc etc.

The final survivor who was a child, died in the 1930's

This is an American example of starvation leading to cannibalism, just as occurred in France painted by gericault and in England - Mignonette Case, Dudley v Stephens 1867

 

enjoy! 

 

Coors label contains a picture of the Rocky Mountains.
The answer is NOT Coors beer. Try again!!!! Coors is the Rocky Mountains. The Donner Party NEVER crossed them. Find the Mountain range they crossed and you'll haev the brewing companys name!!! Good Luck!!
