I just had lunch in a local pizza place, and tried an experiment.  I asked if
they had "classic".  The counterman hesitated a bit, then said "yes, we have
it in bottles".  So I went ahead and ordered one, thinking maybe they had a
stash of the old stuff in back.

To my chagrin (and the detriment of my work this afternoon, I fear :-) I
actually got a bottle of *beer*, whose name was also "classic"...
