Joe Six-Pack
Average working-class American
Joe Six-Pack is the average working-class American man—someone who drinks beer, watches sports, and works a blue-collar job.
The term evokes unpretentious, salt-of-the-earth values, often invoked by politicians claiming to represent ordinary citizens: policies that help Joe Six-Pack, not Wall Street.
The six-pack refers to canned beer sold in bundles of six.
