: So crack the 40-ouncer and pour a little on the block for the bad boy of beers [St. Ides malt liquor]--USA Weekend

At http://www.usaweekend.com/04_issues/040711/040711nostalgia_drinks.html

What does that mean? Is it like pouring a little beer, etc., on a grave as a salute to the dearly and dryly departed?
